Abstract

We show that the slice filtration introduced by Voevodsky is compatible in a suitable sense with the symmetric monoidal structure in the category of motivic symmetric T-spectra constructed by Jardine. It follows from this compatibility that the zero slice of the sphere spectrum s_0(1) is a ring spectrum and that for every symmetric T-spectrum X, and every n, the n-slice s_n(X) is a module over s_0(1). In particular, if the base scheme is a field of characteristic zero, we have that all the slices s_n(X) are big motives in the sense of Voevodsky.
