I would like to pick out small objects from a category. I would like to find such a notion which
QuestionDream 1. Are the compact objects of the category of $k$-schemes exactlyPicks out the schemes of finite type over $k$? If not, what are the compact objects?
Question 2. What are the compact objects of from the category of derived schemes?$k$-schemes. Or at least picks out something relevant.
Question 3Dream 2. What arePicks out the "compact objects" oftop spaces homotopic to finite CW-complexes from the category of topological spaces (equipped with the Quillen model structure)?. (or something relevant)
Question 4.: What other notions exist for "small" objects (other than the compact objects)?
References or comments are welcomed.:) Thanks!
