Abstract

A conjecture of Morel asserts that the sheaf of $𝔸^{1}$ –connected components of a space is $𝔸^{1}$ –invariant. Using purely algebrogeometric methods, we determine the sheaf of $𝔸^{1}$ –connected components of a smooth projective surface, which is birationally ruled over a curve of genus $> 0$ . As a consequence, we show that Morel’s conjecture holds for all smooth projective surfaces over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ .
