Removing quasi-projective assumption in the formalism of four operations

In Ayoub's thesis, Les six opérations de Grothendieck et le formalisme des cycles évanescents dans le monde motivique (I), Ayoub proved that given a stable homotopical $2$-functor (Definition 1.4.1) $\...

How Mayer-Vietoris follows from a six-functor formalism

In many reasonable six-functor formalisms, open and closed immersions satisfy the so-called recollement conditions. (This holds in all the "constructible" formalisms. For example, in the ...

The trace map in étale cohomology

Trace has a pretty formal definition in a monoidal closed category in which $[V, V] \cong V^* \otimes V$ as the composition $\mathbb{Tr} : 1 \rightarrow [V, V] \cong V^* \otimes V \rightarrow 1$, ...

Is the right adjoint to presheaf direct image interesting?

Let $X\overset{f}{\to}Y$ be a continuous map. It induces on presheaves a classical adjunction inverse image ⊣ direct image. However, the direct image functor has a further right adjoint, defined by ...

Most general form of Poincaré duality in étale cohomology

I am interested in Poincaré duality from the point of view of Grothendieck's 6-functor formalism. I am predominantly interested in the proof that Poincaré duality holds in étale cohomology from this ...

Intuition behind exceptional inverse image?

The story is probably well-known: given a map $f:X\to Y$ of spaces (say schemes, but there are many other contexts), we have two classical operations between sheaves on $X$ and those on $Y$: the ...

Universal six-functor formalism on an $\infty$-category

In the article The Universal Six-Functor Formalism by Brad Drew and Martin Gallauer it is proved that for an ordinary category $S$ with a wide subcategory $P$ of 'smooth morphisms' containing all ...

$f^!=f^*[d]$ for quasismooth maps?

Given a smooth map of schemes $f:X\to Y$ of relative dimension $d$, then there is a natural isomorphism $f^!\simeq f^*[d](2d)$ (in any context where the six operations are defined; see Cesinski-...

Subspace inclusion with non-vanishing higher direct images

I'm looking for concrete topological intuition for the derived pushforward. Let $f:X\to Y$ be a continuous map. The derived pushforward $\mathbf Rf_\ast$ takes a sheaf $F$ to the sheafification of ...

Six operations passage from $X_0$ to $X$ reference request

Let $X_0$ be a variety over $\mathbb F_q$ and denote by $X$ its basechange to the algebraic closure. Consider the constructible derived categories $D^b_c(X_0,\mathbb E)$ and $D^b_c(X,\mathbb E)$, ...

singular support of D-module smooth w.r.t. a stratification

(1) Suppose that $X$ is a smooth complex algebraic variety, stratified by some nice smooth stratification $S$. Let $M$ be a $D$-module on $X$, s.t. its shriek-pullback (or star... whatever is ...

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 ...

Overconvergent/infinitesimal site, base change and six operations

This question is about 6 operations formalism for 'crystalline' cohomology theories - more specifically the infinitesimal cohomology of smooth $\mathbb{C}$-varieties, and the overconvergent cohomology ...

Tensor product of $\mathcal{D}$-modules and constructible sheaves

The Riemann-Hilbert correspondence, as proved by Kashiwara and Mebkhout, says that for X a smooth algebraic variety over $\mathbb{C}$ there is an equivalence of triangulated categories $D^b_c(X,\...

When do six operations work?

This question comes (heavily edited) from my notes, thus slightly unusual structure. We know that algebraic maps have very strict structure, and in many settings the operations ...

When does the sheaf direct image functor f_* have a right adjoint?

Say f: X → Y is a morphism of schemes. The sheaf direct image functor f★ always has a left adjoint, namely the sheaf inverse image functor f★ (with tensoring). Under what (...
