After an outline of Deligne-Beilinson homology and cohomology - at first of complex spaces, then for schemes X and simplicial schemes $$(X_ n)$$- and their Poincaré duality, follows a treatment of the Hodge theory for Borel-Moore homology. Then the Riemann-Roch theorem for X, involving Chern maps with values in the Deligne-Beilinson homology and cohomology groups, is presented, as well as Beilinson’s Hodge-$${\mathcal D}$$-conjecture [A. A. Bejlinson, J. Sov. Math. 30, 2036-2070 (1985); translation from Itogi Nauki Tekh., Ser. Sovrem. Probl. Math. 24, 181-238 (1984; Zbl 0588.14013)]. Finally, a reformulation by Deligne of Beilinson’s conjecture for motives with coefficients in a number field, in terms of mixed motives, which are a sought-for analogue of mixed Hodge structures, is discussed.
