Duality and Flat Base Change on Formal Schemes Contemporary Mathematics Duality and Flat Base Change on Formal Schemes Leovigildo Alonso Tarr´ıo, Ana Jerem´ıas L´opez, and Joseph Lipman Abstract. We give several related versions of global Grothendieck Duality for unbounded complexes on noetherian formal schemes. The proofs, based on a non-trivial adaptation of Deligne's method for the special case of ordinary schemes, are reasonably self-contained, modulo the Special Adjoint Functor Theorem. An alternative approach, inspired by Neeman and based on recent results about \Brown Representability," is indicated as well. A section on applications and examples illustrates how our results synthesize a number of different duality-related topics (local duality, formal duality, residue theorems, dualizing complexes,. .). A flat-base-change theorem for pseudo-proper maps leads in particular to sheafified versions of duality for bounded-below complexes with quasi-coherent homology. Thanks to Greenlees-May duality, the results take a specially nice form for proper maps and bounded-below complexes with coherent homology. Contents 1. Preliminaries and main theorems. 4 2.

First we need some notation and terminology. Let X be a ringed space, i.e., a topological space together with a sheaf of commutative rings . Let (X) be the OX A category of X -modules, and qc(X) (resp. c(X), resp. ~c(X)) the full subcat- egory of (XO) whose objects areA the quasi-coherenA t (resp.Acoherent, resp. lim's of A 1 −−! coherent) X -modules. Let K(X) be the homotopy category of (X)-complexes, and let DO(X) be the corresponding derived category, obtainedAfrom K(X) by adjoining an inverse for every quasi-isomorphism (= homotopy class of maps of complexes inducing homology isomorphisms). For any full subcategory :::(X) of (X), denote by D:::(X) the full subcat- egory of D(X) whose objectsAare those complexesA whose homology sheaves all lie + − in :::(X), and by D:::(X) (resp. D:::(X)) the full subcategory of D:::(X) whose A m objects are those complexes D:::(X) such that the homology H ( ) vanishes for all m 0 (resp. m 0).F 2 F The full subcategory (X) of (X) is plump if it contains 0 and for every ex- A::: A act sequence 1 2 3 4 in (X) with 1, 2, 3 and 4 in (X), Mis !in M (X!)Mtoo.!IfM !(XM) is plumpA then itMis abMelian,Mand hasMa A::: M A::: A::: derived category D( :::(X)). For example, c(X) is plump [GD, p. 113, (5.3.5)]. If X is a locally noetherianA formal scheme,2 thenA (X) (X) (Corollary 3.1.5)| A~c ⊂ Aqc with equality when X is an ordinary scheme, i.e., when X has discrete topology [GD, p. 319, (6.9.9)]|and both of these are plump subOcategories of (X), see Proposition 3.2.2. A Let K1, K2 be triangulated categories with respective translation functors T1 ; T2 [H1, p. 20]. A (covariant) ∆-functor is a pair (F; Θ) consisting of an additive ∼ functor F : K1 K2 together with an isomorphism of functors Θ : F T1 T2F ! u v w −! such that for every triangle A B C T A in K , the diagram −! −! −! 1 1 ◦ F A F u F B F v F C Θ F w T F A −−−! −−−! −−−−! 2 is a triangle in K2. Explicit reference to Θ is often suppressed|but one should keep it in mind. (For example, if :::(X) (X) is plump, then each of D:::(X) A ⊂ A and D:::(X) carries a unique triangulation for which the translation is the restriction of that on D(X) and such that inclusion into D(X) together with Θ:=identity is a ∆-functor; in other words, they are all triangulated subcategories of D(X). See e.g., Proposition 3.2.4 for the usefulness of this remark.) Compositions of ∆-functors, and morphisms between ∆-functors, are defined in the natural way.3 A ∆-functor (G; Ψ): K2 K1 is a right ∆-adjoint of (F; Θ) if G is a right adjoint of F and the resulting!functorial map F G 1 (or equivalently, 1 GF ) is a morphism of ∆-functors. ! ! We use R to denote right-derived functors, constructed e.g., via K-injective resolutions (which exist for all (X)-complexes [Sp, p. 138, Thm. 4.5]).4 For a A 1 \lim−!" always denotes a direct limit over a small ordered index set in which any two elements have an upper bound. More general direct limits will be referred to as colimits. 2Basic properties of formal schemes can be found in [GD, Chap. 1, x10]. 3See also [De, x0, x1] for the multivariate case, where signs come into play|and ∆-functors are called \exact functors." 4A complex F in an abelian category A is K-injective if for each exact A-complex G the • abelian-group complex HomA(G; F ) is again exact. In particular, any bounded-below complex of injectives is K-injective. If every A-complex E admits a K-injective resolution E !

O [Sp, p. 147, 6.7]. Each derived functor in this paper comes equipped, implicitly, with a Θ making it into a ∆-functor (modulo obvious modifications for contravariance), cf. [L4, Example (2.2.4)].5 Conscientious readers may verify that such morphisms between derived functors as occur in this paper are in fact morphisms of ∆-functors. 1.1. Our first main result, global Grothendieck Duality for a map f : X Y ! of quasi-compact formal schemes with X noetherian, is that, D( ~c(X)) being the derived category of (X) and j : D( (X)) D(X) being the naturalA functor, the A~c A~c ! ∆-functor Rf∗◦ j has a right ∆-adjoint. A more elaborate|but readily shown equivalent|statement is: Theorem 1. Let f : X Y be a map of quasi-compact formal schemes, with ! X noetherian, and let j : D( ~c(X)) D(X) be the natural functor. Then there × A ! exists a ∆-functor f : D(Y) D ( ~c(X)) together with a morphism of ∆-functors × !

But as far as we know, the natural map HomD(A~c(X)) HomD(X) need not always be an isomorphism. It is when X is properly algebraic,! i.e., the J-adic completion of a proper B-scheme with B a noetherian ring and J a B-ideal: then j induces an equivalence of categories D( ~c(X)) D~c(X), see Corollary 3.3.4. So for properly algebraic X, we can replace AD( (X!)) in Theorem 1 by D (X), and A~c ~c let be any (X)-complex with ~c(X)-homology. GWe proveATheorem 1 (= TheoremA 4.1) in 4, adapting the argument of Deligne x in [H1, Appendix] (see also [De, 1.1.12]) to the category ~c(X), which presents itself as an appropriate generalizationx to formal schemes ofAthe category of quasi- coherent sheaves on an ordinary noetherian scheme. For this adaptation what is needed, mainly, is the plumpness of ~c(X) in (X), a non-obvious fact mentioned above. In addition, we need some factsAon \boundedness"A of certain derived functors in order to extend the argument to unbounded complexes.

R • • For example, HomA(E1; E2) = HomA(E1; I(E2)). 5We do not know, for instance, whether Lf ∗|which is defined only up to isomorphism|can always be chosen so as to commute with translation, i.e., so that Θ = Identity will do. 6A ∆-functor φ is bounded above if there is an integer b such that for any n and any complex E such that HiE = 0 for all i ≤ n it holds that Hj(φE) = 0 for all j < n + b. Bounded below and bounded (above and below) are defined analogously. Boundedness (way-outness) is what makes the very useful \way-out Lemma" [H1, p. 68, 7.1] applicable. 6 LEOVIGILDO ALONSO, ANA JEREM´IAS, AND JOSEPH LIPMAN In Deligne's approach the \Special Adjoint Functor Theorem" is used to get right adjoints for certain functors on qc(X), and then these right adjoints are ap- plied to injective resolutions of complexes.A .

  • Perverse Sheaves
    Perverse Sheaves Bhargav Bhatt Fall 2015 1 September 8, 2015 The goal of this class is to introduce perverse sheaves, and how to work with it; plus some applications. Background For more background, see Kleiman's paper entitled \The development/history of intersection homology theory". On manifolds, the idea is that you can intersect cycles via Poincar´eduality|we want to be able to do this on singular spces, not just manifolds. Deligne figured out how to compute intersection homology via sheaf cohomology, and does not use anything about cycles|only pullbacks and truncations of complexes of sheaves. In any derived category you can do this|even in characteristic p. The basic summary is that we define an abelian subcategory that lives inside the derived category of constructible sheaves, which we call the category of perverse sheaves. We want to get to what is called the decomposition theorem. Outline of Course 1. Derived categories, t-structures 2. Six Functors 3. Perverse sheaves—definition, some properties 4. Statement of decomposition theorem|\yoga of weights" 5. Application 1: Beilinson, et al., \there are enough perverse sheaves", they generate the derived category of constructible sheaves 6. Application 2: Radon transforms. Use to understand monodromy of hyperplane sections. 7. Some geometric ideas to prove the decomposition theorem. If you want to understand everything in the course you need a lot of background. We will assume Hartshorne- level algebraic geometry. We also need constructible sheaves|look at Sheaves in Topology.

  • Lecture 1: Overview
    Lecture 1: Overview September 28, 2018 Let X be an algebraic curve over a finite field Fq, and let KX denote the field of rational functions on X. Fields of the form KX are called function fields. In number theory, there is a close analogy between function fields and number fields: that is, fields which arise as finite extensions of Q. Many arithmetic questions about number fields have analogues in the setting of function fields. These are typically much easier to answer, because they can be connected to algebraic geometry. Example 1 (The Riemann Hypothesis). Recall that the Riemann zeta function ζ(s) is a meromorphic function on C which is given, for Re(s) > 1, by the formula Y 1 X 1 ζ(s) = = ; 1 − p−s ns p n>0 where the product is taken over all prime numbers p. The celebrated Riemann hypothesis asserts that ζ(s) 1 vanishes only when s 2 {−2; −4; −6;:::g is negative even integer or when Re(s) = 2 . To every algebraic curve X over a finite field Fq, one can associate an analogue ζX of the Riemann zeta function, which is a meromorphic function on C which is given for Re(s) > 1 by Y 1 X 1 ζX (s) = −s = s 1 − jκ(x)j jODj x2X D⊆X here jκ(x)j denotes the cardinality of the residue field κ(x) at the point x, D ranges over the collection of all effective divisors in X and jODj denotes the cardinality of the ring of regular functions on D.

  • X → S Be a Proper Morphism of Locally Noetherian Schemes and Let F Be a Coherent Sheaf on X That Is flat Over S (E.G., F Is Smooth and F Is a Vector Bundle)
    COHOMOLOGY AND BASE CHANGE FOR ALGEBRAIC STACKS JACK HALL Abstract. We prove that cohomology and base change holds for algebraic stacks, generalizing work of Brochard in the tame case. We also show that Hom-spaces on algebraic stacks are represented by abelian cones, generaliz- ing results of Grothendieck, Brochard, Olsson, Lieblich, and Roth{Starr. To accomplish all of this, we prove that a wide class of relative Ext-functors in algebraic geometry are coherent (in the sense of M. Auslander). Introduction Let f : X ! S be a proper morphism of locally noetherian schemes and let F be a coherent sheaf on X that is flat over S (e.g., f is smooth and F is a vector bundle). If s 2 S is a point, then define Xs to be the fiber of f over s. If s has residue field κ(s), then for each integer q there is a natural base change morphism of κ(s)-vector spaces q q q b (s):(R f∗F) ⊗OS κ(s) ! H (Xs; FXs ): Cohomology and Base Change originally appeared in [EGA, III.7.7.5] in a quite sophisticated form. Mumford [Mum70, xII.5] and Hartshorne [Har77, xIII.12], how- ever, were responsible for popularizing a version similar to the following. Let s 2 S and let q be an integer.

  • LOCAL PROPERTIES of GOOD MODULI SPACES We Address The
    LOCAL PROPERTIES OF GOOD MODULI SPACES JAROD ALPER ABSTRACT. We study the local properties of Artin stacks and their good moduli spaces, if they exist. We show that near closed points with linearly reductive stabilizer, Artin stacks formally locally admit good moduli spaces. In particular, the geometric invariant theory is developed for actions of linearly reductive group schemes on formal affine schemes. We also give conditions for when the existence of good moduli spaces can be deduced from the existence of etale´ charts admitting good moduli spaces. 1. INTRODUCTION We address the question of whether good moduli spaces for an Artin stack can be constructed “locally.” The main results of this paper are: (1) good moduli spaces ex- ist formally locally around points with linearly reductive stabilizer and (2) sufficient conditions are given for the Zariski-local existence of good moduli spaces given the etale-local´ existence of good moduli spaces. We envision that these results may be of use to construct moduli schemes of Artin stacks without the classical use of geometric invariant theory and semi-stability computations. The notion of a good moduli space was introduced in [1] to assign a scheme or algebraic space to Artin stacks with nice geometric properties reminiscent of Mumford’s good GIT quotients. While good moduli spaces cannot be expected to distinguish between all points of the stack, they do parameterize points up to orbit closure equivalence. See Section 2 for the precise definition of a good moduli space and for a summary of its properties. While the paper [1] systematically develops the properties of good moduli spaces, the existence was only proved in certain cases.

  • Number Theory
    Number Theory Alexander Paulin October 25, 2010 Lecture 1 What is Number Theory Number Theory is one of the oldest and deepest Mathematical disciplines. In the broadest possible sense Number Theory is the study of the arithmetic properties of Z, the integers. Z is the canonical ring. It structure as a group under addition is very simple: it is the infinite cyclic group. The mystery of Z is its structure as a monoid under multiplication and the way these two structure coalesce. As a monoid we can reduce the study of Z to that of understanding prime numbers via the following 2000 year old theorem. Theorem. Every positive integer can be written as a product of prime numbers. Moreover this product is unique up to ordering. This is 2000 year old theorem is the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic. In modern language this is the statement that Z is a unique factorization domain (UFD). Another deep fact, due to Euclid, is that there are infinitely many primes. As a monoid therefore Z is fairly easy to understand - the free commutative monoid with countably infinitely many generators cross the cyclic group of order 2. The point is that in isolation addition and multiplication are easy, but together when have vast hidden depth. At this point we are faced with two potential avenues of study: analytic versus algebraic. By analytic I questions like trying to understand the distribution of the primes throughout Z. By algebraic I mean understanding the structure of Z as a monoid and as an abelian group and how they interact.

    HOMOTOPICAL CATEGORIES: FROM MODEL CATEGORIES TO ( ;1)-CATEGORIES 1 EMILY RIEHL Abstract. This chapter, written for Stable categories and structured ring spectra, edited by Andrew J. Blumberg, Teena Gerhardt, and Michael A. Hill, surveys the history of homotopical categories, from Gabriel and Zisman’s categories of frac- tions to Quillen’s model categories, through Dwyer and Kan’s simplicial localiza- tions and culminating in ( ;1)-categories, first introduced through concrete mod- 1 els and later re-conceptualized in a model-independent framework. This reader is not presumed to have prior acquaintance with any of these concepts. Suggested exercises are included to fertilize intuitions and copious references point to exter- nal sources with more details. A running theme of homotopy limits and colimits is included to explain the kinds of problems homotopical categories are designed to solve as well as technical approaches to these problems.

  • The Scheme of Monogenic Generators and Its Twists
    THE SCHEME OF MONOGENIC GENERATORS AND ITS TWISTS SARAH ARPIN, SEBASTIAN BOZLEE, LEO HERR, HANSON SMITH Abstract. Given an extension of algebras B/A, when is B generated by a M single element θ ∈ B over A? We show there is a scheme B/A parameterizing the choice of a generator θ ∈ B, a “moduli space” of generators. This scheme relates naturally to Hilbert schemes and configuration spaces. We give explicit equations and ample examples. M A choice of a generator θ is a point of the scheme B/A. This inspires a local-to-global study of monogeneity, piecing together monogenerators over points, completions, open sets, and so on. Local generators may not come from global ones, but they often glue to twisted monogenerators that we de- fine. We show a number ring has class number one if and only if each twisted monogenerator is in fact a global generator θ. The moduli spaces of various M twisted monogenerators are either a Proj or stack quotient of B/A by natural symmetries. The various moduli spaces defined can be used to apply cohomo- logical tools and other geometric methods for finding rational points to the classical problem of monogenic algebra extensions.

Given a zero-dimensional commutative ring R, we investigate the structure of the family 9(R) of residue fields of R. We show that if a family 9 of fields contains a finite subset {F,, , F,,} such that every field in 9 contains an isomorphic copy of at least one of the F,, then there exists a zero-dimensional reduced ring R such that 3 = 9(R). If every residue field of R is a finite field, or is a finite-dimensional vector space over a fixed field K, we prove, conversely, that the family 9(R) has. to within isomorphism. finitely many minimal elements. 1. Introduction All rings considered in this paper are assumed to be commutative and to contain a unity element. If R is a subring of a ring S, we assume that the unity of S is contained in R, and hence is the unity of R. If R is a ring and if {Ma}a,, is the family of maximal ideals of R, we denote by 9(R) the family {RIM,:a E A} of residue fields of R and by 9"(R) a set of isomorphism-class representatives of S(R).In connection with work on the class of hereditarily zero-dimensional rings in [S], we encountered the problem of determining what families of fields can be realized in the form S(R) for some zero-dimensional ring R.
