Shouldn't we expect analytic (in the Berkovich sense) étale cohomology of a number field to be the cohomology of the Artin–Verdier site?

Let $K$ be a number field. Consider $X=\mathcal{M}(\mathcal O_K)$ the global Berkovich analytic space associated to $\mathcal O_K$ endowed with the norm $\|\cdot\|=\max\limits_{\sigma:K \...

Is there any relation between Berkovich spaces over $\Bbb Z$ and Arakelov theory?

As I understand it, both Arakelov geometry and Berkovich geometry over $\Bbb Z$ (or $\mathcal O_K$) consider geometric objects that contain in some sense information about both archimdean and ...

What information does the topology of nonarchimedean Berkovich analytic spaces encode?

Given a finite type scheme $X$ over $\Bbb{C}$ we can associate to it an analytic space $X^\text{an}$. There are then comparison theorems comparing invariants of the topological space $X^\text{an}$ ...

Contractibility of the quotient of an analytification of a smooth variety by a finite group (if the field is trivially valued)

Let $k$ be a field and $X$ be a smooth irreducible $k$-variety with an action of a finite group $G$. I consider $k$ as a trivially valued field. It is known from results of Berkovich ("Smooth p-...

"Non-algebraic" Berkovich spaces

Usually, Berkovich analytic spaces are derived from some Banach rings (or chains of Banach rings) over a completely normed field $k$ through Berkovich spectrum. But when the base field is the complex ...

Topological and algebraic covering spaces in Berkovich geometry
