Finite dimensional motives and the conjectures of Bloch and Beilinson

We will relate the notion of finite dimensionality in the triangulated category DM(k) of motivic complexes over a field k ,constructed by Voevodsky, with the Conjectures by Beilinson and Bloch on the existence of a finite filtration on the Chow groups of smooth projective varieties. According to a recent result announced by J.Ayoub all objects in DM(k) are Schur-finite dimensional. This result in particular implies the proof of a long-standing Conjecture in Algebraic Geometry: Bloch's Conjecture about the vanishing of the Albanese Kernel for complezx surfaces of general type with geometric genus =0.
