Finiteness of etale cohomology for arithmetic schemes
By an arithmetic scheme I mean a finite type flat regular integral scheme over $\mathrm{Spec} \, \mathbb{Z}$.
Let $X$ be an arithmetic scheme. Then is $H_{et}^2(X,\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z})$ finite ...

L-Functions of Varieties, Zeta Functions of Their Models
Let $k$ denote a number field, with algebraic closure $\bar{k}$. Take a smooth, projective variety $X$ over $k$. If $\mathfrak{p}$ is a prime of $k$, and $l$ is a rational prime different to the ...

Can one compare integral structures on de Rham and crystalline cohomology?
Suppose $\mathfrak{X}$ is a smooth projective scheme of finite type over $\mathbb{Z}_p$, with generic fibre $X$. Then there are comparison theorems relating de Rham and crystalline cohomology,
$H^i_{\...

Applications of the Weight Monodromy conjecture
I think of the Weight Monodromy conjecture as an analogue of the Weil conjectures in the case of bad reduction. The Weil conjectures of course have lots of applications, from point counting to ...

Étale cohomology of varieties in positive characteristic via singular cohomology
Suppose $X$ is a smooth scheme, not necessarily projective, over $\mathbb{Z}[1/N]$ for some integer $N\neq 0$. I would like to understand the cohomology groups $H^i_{ét}(X_{\overline{\mathbb{F}}_p}, \...

Zariski vs etale torsors over abelian varieties
Question. Let $A$ be an abelian variety (say, over the complex numbers), $G$ an algebraic group, $c$ a class in $H^1_{\rm et}(A, G)$. Denote the multiplication by $N$ map on A by $m_N:A\to A$. Does ...

Number field analog of Artin-Tate $\Rightarrow$ BSD?
What is the difference between the alternating product of the Hasse-Weil $L$-functions of the generic fiber of an arithmetic scheme $X\to\text{Spec}(\mathbf{Z})$ and the zeta function of $X$? (each ...

Degeneration of etale Hochschild--Serre exact sequence
Let $k$ be a field, $X$ a smooth $K$-variety and $\ell$ a prime not dividing the characteristic of $K$.
Then one can make sense of continuous $\ell$-adic etale cohomology (in the sense of Jannsen), ...

How do I produce a basis of cohomology?
Suppose I am discussing a smooth projective variety over an algebraically closed field with my friend on the phone and I want to make a statement about its $l$-adic cohomology (integral or rational). ...

Comparison of etale and formal etale cohomologies for l=p
Let $K$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q} _p$ with a field of integers $\mathcal{O} _K$. Let $X$ be a semistable proper scheme over $\mathcal{O} _K$, and $\mathcal{X}$ the associated p-adic formal ...

In Mann's six-functor formalism, do diagrams with the forget-supports map commute?
One of the main goals in formalizing six-functor formalisms is to obtain some sort of "coherence theorem", affirming that "every diagram that should commute, commutes". In these ...

How did Jouanolou define the cup product with no finiteness hypotheses in SGA 5?
In SGA 5 Exposé VII, at the beginning of §2, Jouanolou lets $X$ and $Y$ denote two schemes, $f:X\rightarrow Y$ a morphism, and $A$ the ring $\mathbf{Z}/\nu\mathbf{Z}$ where $\nu$ is an integer prime ...

Does etale homotopy type see the existence of rational points?
Do there exist two smooth projective schemes over $\mathbb{Q}$ that are etale homotopy equivalent and only one of them has a $\mathbb{Q}$-point?

étale vs syntomic vs flat cohomology
Let $\mathscr{A}/X$ be an abelian scheme over $X$ of characterisitic $p$. The étale topology is not fine enough for the Kummer sequence for $\mathscr{A}$ to be (right) exact, but the syntomic and flat ...

Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequence in etale cohomology?
Let $X,Y \rightarrow S$ be schemes over an algebraically closed field $k$. (Actually I'm interested in the case where they are stacks, but I'll ignore that for now.) The vague form of my question is: ...
