Focusing on the theory of periods of algebraic varieties, this book explores Madhav Nori's abelian category of mixed motives, providing a comprehensive introduction to his approach. It addresses significant gaps in existing literature and elucidates the relationship between mixed motives and periods. Additionally, it offers an in-depth analysis of period numbers as conceptualized by Kontsevich-Zagier, highlighting their structural properties and enhancing the understanding of this complex mathematical framework.
