Abstract

We show that if X is a toric scheme over a regular ring containing a field of finite characteristic, then the direct limit of the K-groups of X taken over any infinite sequence of non-trivial dilations is homotopy invariant. This theorem was known in characteristic 0. The affine case of our result was conjectured by Gubeladze. © 2013 London Mathematical Society.
