details of a dévissage argument for constructible sheaves

I am working on the following Künneth-type isomorphism from [SGA5, exposé III, 2,3]: $\mathrm{Settings}.$ Let $X_1, X_2$ be separated finite type schemes over the spectrum of a field $S=\mathrm{Spec}...

Etale cohomology of relative elliptic curve

Let $E_a: y^2 = x(x-1)(x-a)$ be a smooth proper relative elliptic curve over $\text{Spec}(A)$, with $a\in A$, and assume $\text{Spec}(A)$ is a $\text{Spec}(\mathbb{Q}_p)$-scheme. Let $R^1f_*\mathbb{Q}...

When inverse image presheaf is already a sheaf

Following proof from Milne's Étale Cohomology (page 94) contains an equality I not understand. Setting: assume $X$ is a variety (=absolutely reduced, irreducible scheme of finite type over base field ...

A stalk criterion for unit map to be an isomorphism on étale site

Let $f: X \to Y$ be a morphism of schemes and $\mathcal{F}$ sheaf of sets/Abelian groups on the small étale site $Y_{ét}$. Assume we manage somehow to show thatat every geometric point $\overline{y} \...

Characterization of étale locally constant sheaves over a normal scheme

I have a question about the verification of remark 1.2 in James Milne's book Étale Cohomology stated on page 156: Assume $X$ be a normal & connected scheme with generic point $g: \eta \to X$. Then ...

Field of fractions of etale stalk of Dedekind domain (Example from Milne's LEC)

Let $X=\operatorname{Spec}(A)$ be an affine Dedekind domain with field of fractions $K$. Let $\widetilde{A}$ be the integral closure of $A$ in separable closure $ K^{\text{sep}}$. A closed point $x$ ...

Calculate stalk of etale derived pushforward sheaf (Milne's LEC)

Assume $X=\operatorname{Spec}(A)$ is connected and normal (especially integral), and let $g:\eta \hookrightarrow X$ be the inclusion of the generic point of $X$. In Milne's LEC script on Etale ...

Is there a simple counterexample to étale proper base change on the unbounded derived category?

The best non-derived version of proper base change on the étale site of a scheme I know is that for $f : X \to Y$ proper and $g : Y' \to Y$ arbitrary, the base change morphism $g^{-1} R f_\star \...

Sheafifcation for the étale site

Let $X$ be a scheme and $\mathcal{F}$ a presheaf on $X_{ét}$. For each $x_{i}\in X$, pick a geometric point $\bar{x}_{i}$ over $x$ and denote by $i_{\bar{x}_{i}}:\text{Spec}(k_{i})_{\text{ét}}\...

Stalks of limit sheaves

Let $\{\mathcal{F}_i\}_{i\in \mathbb{N}}$ be an inverse system of sheaves of abelian groups on a space $X$. Then for any $x\in X$ we have a natural map $$\left(\lim_i \mathcal{F}_i\right)_x\rightarrow ...

A very elementary question on the definition of sheaf on a site

I'm now studying the etale cohomology with the book 'Introduction to Etale Cohomology' by Tamme. In the page 26 of the book, 'a family of effective epimorphisms' is introduced. 'A family $\{ U_{i} \...
