Oct 20, 2012 at 20:47 comment added Jay Taylor Hi Geordie! That I am not sure about, although it sounds plausible. Probably the person to ask about that would be Daniel. This would be useful to know if it were the case.

Oct 20, 2012 at 19:29 comment added Geordie Williamson Hi Jay! I thought typically your $\BC_u$ are (geometrically) simply connected. Hence their fundamental groups over $\mathbb{F}_p$ will simply be equal to the fundamental group of $Spec\mathbb{F}_p$ and any local system will be pulled back from a local system on $Spec\mathbb{F})_p$. In this case I would guess that $H^*_c(\BC_u,\pi^*V)$ would just be $H^*_c(\BC_u)\otimes V$ (where $V$ is a local system on $Spec\mathbb{F}_p$ aka continuous rep of $Gal(Spec\mathbb{F}_p)$).

Oct 20, 2012 at 15:32 comment added Jay Taylor I don't see the problem with the situation as given above. The Frobenius endomorphsim $F$ is a finite morphism of $\mathfrak{B}_u$ to itself, hence it induces a map in $\ell$-adic cohomology (by the functoriality of such cohomology). Could you explain why paragraph 2 won't help?
Oct 20, 2012 at 13:50 comment added user27056 I think you mean to consider an absolutely simple adjoint semisimple group $G$ over a finite field $k$ (say of size $q$) and $u \in G(k)$, so the scheme $\mathfrak{B}_u$ of Borels containing $u$ is defined over $k$. For a lisse $\overline{\mathbf{Q}}_{\ell}$-sheaf $\mathcal{F}$ on the $k$-scheme $\mathfrak{B}_u$, let $\mathcal{F}'$ be its pullback to $\mathfrak{B}'_u = (\mathfrak{B}_u)_{\overline{k}}$. There is a natural $q$-Frobenius endomorphism $F^{\ast}$ of $H^i_c(\mathfrak{B}'_u,\mathcal{F}')$. That being said, the answer is "no" (as in the topology version) and paragraph 2 won't help.
