The notion of
modulus is a striking feature of Rosenlicht&
ndash;Serre's theory of generalized Jacobian varieties of curves. It was carried over to algebraic cycles on general varieties by Bloch&
ndash;Esnault, Park, Rülling,
Krishna&
ndash;Levine. Recently, Kerz&
ndash;Saito introduced a notion of Chow group of 0-cycles with modulus in connection with geometric class field theory with wild ramification for varieties over finite fields. We study the non-homotopy invariant part of the Chow group of 0-cycles with modulus and show their torsion and divisibility properties.
Modulus is being brought to sheaf theory by Kahn–Saito–Yamazaki in their attempt to construct a generalization of Voevodsky–Suslin–Friedlander's theory of homotopy invariant presheaves with transfers. We prove parallel results about torsion and divisibility properties for them.
