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 ...

Why are there three kinds of non-archimedean geometry?

It may seem silly to ask "Why are there three types of non-Archimedean geometry?", that would be like asking why there are three (and even more) different Weil cohomologies. So I have to ...

An example where the non-Archimedean tensor product of normed modules is only seminormed?

Let $R$ be a commutative unital ring and let $M$ be a unital $R$-module. A non-Archimedean ring seminorm on $R$ is a map $|\cdot| \colon R \rightarrow \mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}$ which satisfies $$ | 0_R| = ...

Indeterminacy locus of meromorphic maps of rigid analytic spaces

Setup. Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Let $X/k$ be a normal variety, and let $Y/k$ be a proper variety. It is well-known that the indeterminacy locus of a rational ...

Topological and algebraic covering spaces in Berkovich geometry

Let $k$ be a complete, non-archimedean field, and $X$ a Berkovich space over $k$ (as nice as you like, for arguments sake let's say strictly $k$-analytic, good, and geometrically connected). As ...

Identity theorem in $p$-adic geometry/analysis

If one wants to do $p$-adic analysis and geometry, it is often bad so adapt "naively" complex analytic ideas, basically because $\mathbb{Q}_p$ is disconnected. The modern approach to this is,...
