Moduli stack of l-adic sheaves?

Let us work over a field $k$. Then for any smooth affine group scheme $G$ over $k$, we can consider the stack quotient $BG := [\text{pt} / G]$ which classifies étale $G$-torsors. Let $\ell$ be a prime ...

Does base change respect Galois correspondence between $\ell$-adic sheaves and representations of the fundamental étale group?

It is known that for $X$ a connected scheme there is an equivalence of categories $$\left\lbrace \text{$\ell$-adic smooth sheaves over $X$} \right\rbrace \leftrightarrow \left\lbrace \text{$\ell$-adic ...

$l$-adic cohomology of hyperplane arrangements

Consider an arrangement of hyperplanes given by the faces of a simplex. Let's consider it as a scheme (a non-regular scheme) and let's also work over a finite field. Has the rational $l$-adic ...

Tate's conjecture for arithmetic schemes

Tate's conjecture is about a map from Chow groups of a smooth projective variety $X$ to the $l$-adic cohomology i.e. $CH^n(X)\rightarrow (H^{2n}(\bar{X}, \mathbb{Q}_l(n)))^G$ where $G$ is the Galois ...

Given a (not necessarily Cartesian) square of spaces $$\require{AMScd}\begin{CD} X @>g>> \overline{X} \\ @VVfV @VV\overline{f}V \\ Y @>\overline{g}>> \overline{Y} \end{CD}$$ does the ...

Reference for localization distinguished triangles in the derived category of $\ell$-adic sheaves

Let us consider a variety $X$ over a field $k$ which is a finite field or an algebraic closure thereof. Let $\ell$ be a prime number different from the characteristic of $k$, and let $\Lambda = \...

$\ell$-adic schematic homotopy type

In the groundbreaking paper Champs Affines (DOI), Toen constructs a generalisation of rational homotopy types which he calls schematic homotopy types. This is part of a larger programme of a theory ...

Confusion about relative Poincaré duality in the context of $\ell$-adic cohomology

I have recently learned about relative Poincaré duality in the book Weil conjectures, perverse sheaves and $\ell$-adic Fourier transform by Kiehl and Weissauer (2001). The reference is section II.7. ...

$\ell$-adic cohomology and finiteness of the $\mathbf{Q}_\ell$-vector space

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over $K$. Fix $\ell \neq \mathrm{char}(K)$. I'm looking for references describing how the absolute Galois group $G_k$ acts on $H_{et}^i(X \times_K \bar{K}, \...

Intermediate extensions of pure perverse sheaves (BBD 5.4.3)

I am working my way through "Faisceaux pervers" by Beilinson, Bernstein and Deligne and can't wrap my head around Corollary 5.4.3. To me it seems that one of the hypotheses is extraneous, ...

Stratified sites/topoi and constructible sheaves

Is it possible to define (possibly derived) categories of constructible sheaves over sites more general than those of open subsets of topological spaces while still retaining essential features, like ...

Katz's $\ell$-adic Airy sheaf

The Airy differential equation $$y''(x)\ = \ xy(x)$$ is one of the simplest irregular differential equations (so not determined by its monodromy data, there is more structure, the Stokes data). ...

Finiteness result for higher direct image of $\ell$-adic sheaves

Let $f:X\to Y$ be a representable map of finite type (or is finite dimensional enough?) Artin stacks, whose fibres (which are schemes) have dimension at most $n$. Then is it true that $R^qf_*\mathbf{...

Divisible elements in the cohomology of Milnor $K$-theory

As a consequence of the strong Tate conjecture over finite fields one can deduce (see here proposition 8.20) for every smooth variety $X$ over a finite field: $$H_{cont}^i(X,\mathbb{Q}_l(n))=H_{Zar}^{...

A lisse mixed sheaf as an extension of pure lisse sheaves

I am trying to understand Corollary 1.8.11 in Deligne's Weil II paper. The statement is that for a normal scheme $X_0$ that is of finite type over $\mathbb{F}_q$, every lisse $\ell$-adic $\iota$-mixed ...

Is a $\tau$-mixed Weil sheaf always a direct summand of a $\tau$-real sheaf?

Fix an isomorphism $\tau: \overline{\mathbf{Q}_\ell} \cong \mathbf{C}$ and consider Weil sheaves on a scheme $X$ over $\mathbf{F_q}$. It is a theorem that a $\tau$-real sheaf $\mathscr{F}$ is $\tau$-...
