It may be a easy question for experts. The definition of the Weyl group of a complex semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ is well-known: We first $\textbf{choose}$ a Cartan subalgebra $\mathfrak{h} …

Let $X$ be an affine scheme and $\mathcal{E}$ a finitely generated locally free sheaf on $X$. It is obvious that $\mathcal{E}$ is a projective object in the category Qcoh$(X)$ since we can pass to rin …

Let $X$ be a scheme and let $D^b_{\text{coh}}(X)$ be the derived category of complexes of sheaves with bounded, coherent cohomologies. We know that the category $D^b_{\text{coh}}(X)$ has some drawbac …

For an introductory textbook I will recommend Homotopy theories and model categories by Dwyer and Spalinski. This 56-page paper is one chapter of the book "Handbook of algebraic topology" and gives a …

In Toen's paper The homotopy theory of dg-algebras and derived Morita theory, Theorem 8.15, he essentially proved the following result. Let $X$ and $Y$ be two smooth and proper schemes over $k$. L …

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a category. We call a morphism $\alpha: X\rightarrow X$ an idempotent if $\alpha^2=\alpha$ in $\mathcal{C}$. We call $\mathcal{C}$ is $\textit{idempotent complete}$ if any idempo …

The question is a special case of a previous question. Let $M$ be a compact smooth manifold, then it is clear that $C^{\infty}(M)$ is a Frechet algebra with pointwise multiplication and a collection …

This question may be trivial for experts. Consider a (compact, connected) smooth manifold $X$ and a (compact connected) Lie group $G$ act on $X$. Then we have the action map $$ \mu: G\times X\rightarr …

I have heard that Mumford has constructed an example of a normal complex algebraic surface $X$ such that $H^2_{et}(X,\mathbb{G}_m)$ contains a non-torsion element. But I cannot find the reference. Th …

Let $f,g: X_{\bullet}\to Y_{\bullet}$ be two simplicial maps between simplicial sets. We say $f$ and $g$ are (strictly) simplicial homotopic if there exists a simplicial map $H: X_{\bullet}\times I_{ …

It is well-know that $Qcoh$ is a fibered category on $Sch$. In more details let $\mathcal{C}$ be the category $(Sch/S)$ of schemes over a fixed base scheme S. For each scheme $U$ we define $Qcoh(U)$ …

Let $k$ be a field and $A$ be an ordinary $k$-algebra. Let $M$ and $N$ be two left $A$-modules then we could consider the Ext group $\mathrm{Ext}^i_A(M,N)$ which is actually a $k$-vector space. Let $l …

Let $M$ be a compact smooth manifold, then it is clear that $C^{\infty}(M)$ is a Frechet algebra with pointwise multiplication and a collection of semi-norm defined by $p_{\alpha}(f):=\sup_{\beta\leq\ …

I apologize for the vague title. Let $M$ be a compact smooth manifold, then we have $T^*M$ and hence $\wedge^pT^*M$ as vector bundles on $M$. There for we have $$ \sum (-1)^p[\wedge^pT^*M] \in K(M). …

It is a well-known result in algebraic geometry that if $X$ is an affine scheme and $\mathcal{F}$ is a quasi-coherent sheaf on $X$, then the higher cohomologies of $\mathcal{F}$ vanish, i.e. $$ H^i(X, …
