Addendum to: Milne, Values of zeta functions of varieties over finite fields, Amer. J. Math. 108, (1986), 297-360

Abstract

The original article expressed the special values of the zeta function of a variety over a finite field in terms of the Z-cohomology of the variety. As the article was being completed, Lichtenbaum conjectured the existence of certain motivic cohomology groups. Progress on his conjecture allows one to give a beautiful restatement of the main theorem of the article in terms of Z-cohomology groups.
