Triple comparison of cohomology in algebraic geometry

Let $X$ be a smooth proper variety over $\mathbb{Q}$ and $p$ a prime number. For an integer $k$, we have: a finitely-generated abelian group $H^k(X^{\mathrm{an}}(\mathbb{C});\mathbb{Z})$ a finitely-...

How does the cohomology theory on de Rham (pre)stack compute de Rham cohomology?

Recently when I'm reading PTVV, Shifted Symplectic Structures, in Sec. 2.1 Mapping stacks, the authors use the identification $H^*(X,E)\simeq H^{*}_{dR}(Y/k,\mathcal{E})$ to show $X=Y_{dR}$ admits an ...

Nice proof that de Rham complex computes Lie algebra cohomology?
