Is there a ring stacky approach to $\ell$-adic or rigid cohomology?
Ever since Simpson's paper [Sim], it was observed that many different cohomology theories arise in the following way: we begin with our space $X$, we associate to it a stack $X_\text{stk}$ (which ...

How do I produce a basis of cohomology?
Suppose I am discussing a smooth projective variety over an algebraically closed field with my friend on the phone and I want to make a statement about its $l$-adic cohomology (integral or rational). ...

How would you call morphisms of varieties that induce isomorphisms on etale cohomology in low degrees?
In our text we have several statements of the following sort: for a certain morphism $f:X\to Y$ of varieties over an (algebraically closed) field of characteristic $p$ and some $c>0$ the ...

Proof of the projection formula (for cohomology of $\mathbf{P}V$)
Let $V\to X$ be a vector bundle (over say a scheme).
Then the cohomology of its projectivisation is
$$\text{H}^*(\mathbf{P}V)\ =\ \text{H}^*(X)[t]/(t^{n+1}+c_1(V)t^n+\cdots+c_n(V))$$
as an algebra, ...

Rigid \'etale cohohomology of flag variety minus its rational points e.g $p$-adic Drinfeld half plane
Let $Fl=G/B$ over $\mathbb Q_p$ be the flag variety of a quasi-split reductive group $G$ over $\mathbb Q_p$, then $X=Fl-Fl(Q_p)$ shall exist as a rigid analytic variety over $\mathbb Q_p$, how to ...
