"Simple Limit Argument" in Freitag's and Kiehl's Etale Cohomology
I have a question about an argument used in Freitag's and Kiehl's Etale Cohomology and the Weil Conjecture in the proof of:
4.4 Lemma. (p 41) Every sheaf $F$ representable by an étale scheme $U \to X$,...

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 ...

Help with $\mathbf{Q}_{\ell}$ sheaves
Let $X\to S$ be a morphism of smooth connected varieties over an algebraically closed field $k$; let $j:\eta\to S$ be the inclusion of the generic point into $S$ (not a geometric generic point) and ...

Generalized Behrend version for Grothendieck-Lefschetz trace formula
[MOVED HERE FROM MSE.]
The statement of the Grothendieck-Lefschetz fixed point theorem is well-known. For a proper algebraic variety $X$ over $\mathbb F_q$,
$$\#X(\mathbb F_q) =\sum_i (−1)^i Tr(Fr_X, ...

What is the need for torsion in the definition of lisse sheaves?
I am studying the basics of constructible and lisse sheaves, and am trying to understand SGA 4, IX. As Grothendieck himself observes at the beginning of the chapter, one is forced to work with torsion ...

How to compute the first etale cohomology of a constructible torsion-free sheaf?
I am interested in the following example!
Let $k$ be a field, let $X_0$ be the scheme $\mathrm{Spec}R$ with $R_0=k[x,y]/(xy)$, let $R$ be the strict Hensilian localalisation of $R_0$ at the origin ...

constructibility for pushforward
Let consider a quasicompact open $j:U\rightarrow\mathbb{A}^{\mathbb{N}}$ over a field $k$, Is there an example where $Rj_{*}\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$ is not constructible, where $n$ is prime to the ...

Continuity of constructible derived category
Let $X_0$ be a variety over $\mathbb F_q$. Denote by $X_n$ its basechange to $\mathbb F_{q^n}$ and let $X=\lim X_n$ be its basechange to the algebraic closure $\overline{\mathbb F}_q$.
Let $D^b_c(X_n,...

Purity and six operations?
The six operations $f_!,f^!,f_*,f^*,\otimes,\mathcal Hom$ have the property that they preserve estimates on weights in one direction.
For $f_!,f^!,f_*,f^*$ I can see, that they don't preserve purity ...
