Stalks of limit sheaves

Let $\{\mathcal{F}_i\}_{i\in \mathbb{N}}$ be an inverse system of sheaves of abelian groups on a space $X$. Then for any $x\in X$ we have a natural map $$\left(\lim_i \mathcal{F}_i\right)_x\rightarrow ...

Is there a simple counterexample to étale proper base change on the unbounded derived category?

The best non-derived version of proper base change on the étale site of a scheme I know is that for $f : X \to Y$ proper and $g : Y' \to Y$ arbitrary, the base change morphism $g^{-1} R f_\star \...

Do 'change of coefficients' functors for sheaves commute with the four functors (formalism)?

For a morphism $f$ of varieties over a field of characteristic $\neq l$ I can consider the functors $Rf_*$, $f^\ast$, $f_!$, and $f^!$ both for the corresponding derived categories of 'all' (...

When inverse image presheaf is already a sheaf

Following proof from Milne's Étale Cohomology (page 94) contains an equality I not understand. Setting: assume $X$ is a variety (=absolutely reduced, irreducible scheme of finite type over base field ...

Reference request: sheaf-theoretic operations in the classical topology?

Like many graduate students before trying to learn something about étale cohomology and Deligne's proof(s) of the Riemann hypothesis part of the Weil conjectures, I am hunting for references detailing ...

details of a dévissage argument for constructible sheaves

I am working on the following Künneth-type isomorphism from [SGA5, exposé III, 2,3]: $\mathrm{Settings}.$ Let $X_1, X_2$ be separated finite type schemes over the spectrum of a field $S=\mathrm{Spec}...

Usage of Leray spectral sequence

Maybe this is an elementary stuff for experts, I could not figure it out by myself. Let $\pi:G\to S$ be an elliptic curve with zero section $e:S\to G$. Take $\mathcal{H}=(R^1\pi_*\mathbb{Q}_\ell)^\vee$...

Support of étale sheaves

Let $X$ be a scheme, $i: Z\to X$ a closed subscheme, $j: U\to X$ its complement in $X$. Assume the codimension of $Z$ in $X$ is large (at least $2$). Let $A$ be an étale sheaf on $U$, $B$ an étale ...

Does mapping cylinder category have enough injectives?

Let $A, B$ be two abelian categories, and $\tau : A \to B$ a left exact functor. We define a category $C$ as follows: objects: triples $(M, N, \varphi)$ where $M\in A, N\in B$ and $\varphi: N\to \...

What are the easiest cases of base change (for sheaves on sites)?

I have a closed embedding of schemes $i:X'\to X$, and for each of them I consider three Grothendieck topologies for the category of the corresponding (relatively) \'etale schemes: the \'etale one, the ...

Do inverse images respect flabby sheaves?

Let $i:Y\to X$ be a closed embedding of varieties, and let $S$ be a flabby \'etale (or Nisnevich) sheaf of abelian groups on $X$. Is $i^*S$ flabby also? I am mostly interested in the case when $S=i_{x*...

Galoisian perspective on local system tamely ramified along a smooth divisor

This question is about (1.7.8) and (1.7.11) in Deligne’s Weil II paper. Let $X$ be a regular scheme and $D\subset X$ a smooth principal divisor cut out by the function $t$. Let $\mathcal F$ be a ...

Weaker version of smooth base change for étale sheaves

How can one compute the cohomology of $i'^*C$, for $i':\mathbb{A}^{N-1}\setminus \{0\}\to \mathbb{A}^{N}\setminus \{0\} $?

For an (etale or 'topological', constructible bounded) complex of sheaves $C$ on $X'=\mathbb{A}^{N}\setminus \{0\} $, $i'$ being the embedding $\mathbb{A}^{N-1}\setminus \{0\}\to \mathbb{A}^{N}\...

why is the local field Q_l not an etale sheaf over a scheme X?

I would like to know the reason why the local field Q_l is not an etale sheaf over a scheme X while its ring of integers Z_l can be regarded as a constant etale sheaf?

On inverse images with respect to Zariski-etale topology.

For a variety $X$ I define its Zariski-etale site as follows: the category is the category of etale $X$-schemes, and the coverings are Zariski ones. Note that this topology is more coarse than the ...

Can etale $X$-schemes be lifted to $Y$, where $X$ is closed in $Y$?

For a closed embedding (of varieties) $X\to Y$ let $U/X$ be etale. Is is true that there necessarily exists an etale $U'/Y$ such that $U'_X=U$? If this is wrong in general, are there any assumptions ...

Does n-multiplication maps of cohomology groups vanish if it vanishes at the 0th cohomology?

In general, we know that a morphism $f=(f ^ {q})$ between universal (cohomological) $\delta$ functors $S=(S ^ {q}),T=(T ^ {q})\ $vanishes if and only if $f ^ {0} \ \colon \ S^{0} \to T^{0}$ vanishes....

Another stupid question on l-adic sheaves: does a generically zero constructible sheaf vanish on an open subvariety?

Suppose that the stalk of a constructible l-adic ($\mathbb{Z}_l$-adic or $\mathbb{Q}_l$-adic) etale sheaf $S$ over a generic (Zariski) point of a variety $V$ is zero. Does this imply that $S$ vanishes ...
