Descendability and descent in topological weaves

Algebraic Geometry 2026-07-08 v1

Abstract

We prove a criterion for a finitely presented surjection of algebraic spaces to be descendable in a topological weave. We apply this to show that rational motivic sheaves satisfy v-descent, and the same for \'etale motivic spectra on noetherian finite-dimensional schemes with residue fields of uniformly bounded \'etale cohomological dimension. We also construct the "forgetting supports" isomorphism f!ff_! \simeq f_* for a proper DM morphism of Artin stacks, in rational motivic sheaves.
