Long exact sequence from a short exact sequence of double complexes

I'm having trouble finding a reference for something that I think should be in the literature. Consider a short exact sequence of bounded double-complexes, in an abelian category: $$0 \rightarrow A^{ …

What is the standard reference on "infinitesimal space" in algebraic geometry??

I think that the best reference for the infinitesimal site, especially if one is motivated to learn crystalline cohomology, is found in Grothendieck's lectures "Crystals and the De Rham Cohomology of …

Applications of étale cohomology

One of the most important applications of etale cohomology is to Deligne-Lusztig theory, and the large subsequent body of work approaching the representation of finite groups of Lie type using $\ell$- …

What is a reference for profinite sets?

I agree with some of the comments that "profinite set" is not a standard term. But you can certainly look at the category of pro-(finite sets). In other words, begin with the category $Set_f$ of fin …

Changing basis on an extension of a free Z-module.

Consider a finite-rank free $Z$-module $Y$. Let $c: Y \times Y \rightarrow Z$ be a $Z$-bilinear form. Assume that $c(y_1, y_2) + c(y_2, y_1)$ is even, for all $y_1, y_2 \in $. Then $c$ "incarnates …

Representation theory of reductive groups in characteristic $p$ as a limit of the theories i...

I think, although it's dated later than Deligne's paper that you mentioned, that the first written instance of Kazhdan's principle is in the paper "Representations of groups over close local fields", …

U(3) Sato-Tate measure.

An undergraduate is performing some computations, related to a Sato-Tate conjecture of $U(3)$ type (a curve over $Q$, for which the roots of local L-functions look like eigenvalues of a random matrix …

Reference for Pic(G) and central extensions.

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a (perfect, why not) field $F$. Let $m$, $pr_1$, $pr_2$ denote the multiplication, first, and second projection maps from $G \times G$ to $G$. Then I'm pr …

Hilbert symbol and Weil index, beyond the quadratic case?

Let $F$ be a local nonarchimedean field. Let $n$ be a positive integer for which the group $\mu_n(F)$ of $n^{th}$ roots of unity in $F$ has order $n$. Let $\epsilon: \mu_n(F) \rightarrow C^\times$ b …

Value of "of course" in the mathematical literature

When I was a graduate student, a professor (who will remain nameless since I might be misquoting) said something along the lines of "If you want to see where the errors in a math paper are, just look …

Ring of continuous functions, reference request.

I am looking for a reference for the following facts in functional analysis and topology. (If these "facts" are not true, I suppose I'm looking for the closest approximation which is true.) Let $X$ …
