On a question motivating Lurie's treatment of formal moduli problems
Lurie, in his ICM 2010 proceedings paper Moduli Problems for Ring Spectra (pdf), says that one motivating problem (for him, I presume, and possibly others) for thinking about formal moduli problems is ...

Several simple questions on the geometry of higher stacks
I'm trying to understand definition/work out some examples. So, there are some simple questions about higher stacks.
For the simplicity assume that we are working with higher DM (Deligne-Mumford) ...

Which morphisms of ring spectra are of effective descent for modules?
There is a well understood bifibration of $\infty$-categories over the $\infty$-category of commutative ring spectra whose fiber over a ring $R$ is the category of $R$-module spectra. This is in ...

Higher descent cohomology
Descent cohomology for a comonad is defined at degrees 0 and 1 by Mesablishvili in his paper "On Descent Cohomology" (as well as by many other authors in many other contexts). For a comonad $\bot$ on ...

A construction of Kähler differentials and Illusie cotangent complex as colimit over embeddings
Let $\Bbbk$ be a field, $X$ affine scheme of finite type over $\Bbbk$. Let $\mathcal C_X$ be the category of closed embeddings of $X$ into (say affine) smooth $Y$'s of finite type over $\Bbbk$, ...

Relation between hypercompleteness and the property that Cech cohomology calculates sheaf cohomology
Let $C$ be a small site with fibre products. The (injective) Čech model structure on simplicial presheaves $\operatorname{sPre}(C)$ on $C$ presents an $(\infty,1)$-topos and one may ask if this $(...

Higher commutators in E_n algebras and the Maurer--Cartan equation
Let $A$ be an associative algebra in $dgVect_k$. Then the commutator $[\cdot,\cdot]:A\otimes A\to A$ defined by $[x,y]=xy-(-1)^{|x||y|}yx$ gives $A$ the structure of a (dg-)Lie algebra. The Maurer--...

Analysis of Eilenberg-MacLane Stacks
In a series of three papers from the fifties, Eilenberg and MacLane did a pretty exhaustive study of what we now call "Eilenberg-MacLane spaces" and used a lot of machinery to do it, e.g. Whitehead's $...

Pushout schemes/stacks
I would like to know in what generality do we have pushouts for schemes/stacks/derived stacks. More precisely, let $f : X \rightarrow Y$ be a proper flat surjective morphism of schemes of finite type ...

What is a good reference (preferably thorough) for the Derived Category of a scheme/orbifold/stack?

When does the cotangent complex vanish?
The question is already in the title. Less succinctly, let's call a map $f:X \to Y$ of schemes $L$-trivial if its cotangent complex is quasi-isomorphic to $0$. Such maps have striking deformation-...

What is a simplicial commutative ring from the point of view of homotopy theory?
Let $k$ be a field. There are two natural categories to consider:
The category of simplicial commutative $k$-algebras.
The category of connective $E_\infty$ $k$-algebras (i.e., chain complexes of $...

Defining ind-coherent sheaves and their singular support

The De Rham Stack and $\text{LocSys}$

Connections between various generalized algebraic geometries (Toen-Vaquié, Durov, Diers, Lurie)?
As far as I know, there are four possible ways to generalize algebraic geometry by 'simply' replacing the basic category of rings with something similar but more general:

If $A\in \mbox{Rings}\subset E_\infty\mbox{-rings}$, what is the equivalence between objects of $\mathcal{D}(\mbox{Mod}_A)$ and $A$-module spectra?
In Lurie's "A Survey of Elliptic Cohomology", he writes on page 14 that if $A$ is an ordinary commutative ring considered as an $E_\infty$-ring, then $A$-module spectra are the same thing as objects ...
