Coherently complete algebraic stacks in positive characteristic

Abstract

With the long-term goal of proving local structure theorems of algebraic stacks in positive characteristic near points with reductive (but possibly non-linearly reductive) stabilizer, we conjecture that quotient stacks of the form [SpecA/G][\mathrm{Spec}\, A/G], with GG reductive and AGA^G complete local, are coherently complete along the unique closed point. We establish this conjecture in two interesting cases: (1) AGA^G is artinian and (2) GG acts trivially on SpecA\mathrm{Spec}\, A. We also establish coherent completeness results for graded unipotent group actions. In order to establish these results, we prove a number of foundational statements concerning cohomological and completeness properties of algebraic stacks -- including on how these properties ascend and descend along morphisms.
