We prove that for Noetherian, smooth, separated, integral, finite type schemes $X$ and $Y$ over an excellent Dedekind domain $R$, that are properly birational over $R$, we have $R^if_{*}\mathcal{O}_X \cong R^ig_{*} \mathcal{O}_Y$ and $R^i…
Grothendieck's cohomological purity predicts that the cohomology of a scheme is insensitive to removing a closed subscheme of sufficiently high codimension. In this article, we establish a form of flat cohomological purity over arbitrary…
Let $X$ and $S$ be complex spaces with $X$ countable at infinity and $S$ reduced locally pure dimensional. Let $\pi:X\to S$ be an universally-$n$-equidimensional morphism (i.e open with constant pure $n$-dimensional fibers). If there is a…
Let X be a normal connected complex algebraic variety equipped with a semisimple complex representation of its fundamental group. Then, under a maximality assumption, we prove that the covering space of X associated to the kernel of the…
It is shown that a quiver is left noetherian if and only if the category of quiver representations in any locally noetherian abelian category is again locally noetherian. Here, locally noetherian means that any object is the directed union…
We prove that for a fibration of simply-connected spaces of finite type $F\hookrightarrow E\to B$ with $F$ being positively elliptic and $H^*(F,\qq)$ not possessing non-trivial derivations of negative degree, the base $B$ is formal if and…
We prove that, if F is a coherent sheaf of modules over the source of a morphism f:X->Y of complex-analytic spaces, where Y is smooth, then the stalk of F at a point x in X is flat over R, the local ring of the target at f(x) if and only if…
Given a morphism $f \colon X \to Y$ of schemes over a field, we prove several finiteness results about the fibers of the induced map on arc spaces $f_\infty \colon X_\infty \to Y_\infty$. Assuming that $f$ is quasi-finite and $X$ is…
We prove that if $X \to Y$ is a (geometrically) regular morphism of Noetherian schemes, then from a Nisnevich-local perspective, the Gersten complex for Quillen $K$-theory on $X$ becomes acyclic in degrees beyond the Krull dimension of $Y$.…
Let G be a reductive affine group scheme defined over a semilocal ring k. Assume that either G is semisimple or k is normal and noetherian. We show that G has a finite k-subgroup S such that the natural map H^1(R, S) --> H^1(R, G) is…
Every homomorphism of modules is projective-stably equivalent to an epimorphism but is not always to a monomorphism. We prove that a map is projective-stably equivalent to a monomorphism if and only if its kernel is torsionless, that is, a…
Assume that R is a local regular ring containing an infinite perfect field, or that R is the local ring of a point on a smooth scheme over an infinite field. Let K be the field of fractions of R and the characteristic of K is not 2. Let X…
Valuation rings and perfectoid rings are examples of (usually non-noetherian) rings that behave in some sense like regular rings. We give and study an extension of the concept of regular local rings to non-noetherian rings so that it…
Let A be the local ring at a point of a normal complex variety with completion R. Srinivas has asked about the possible images of the induced map from Cl A to Cl R over all geometric normal domains A with fixed completion R. We use…
We show that any stack $\mathfrak{X}$ of finite type over a Noetherian scheme has a presentation $X \rightarrow \mathfrak{X}$ by a scheme of finite type such that $X(F) \rightarrow \mathfrak{X}(F)$ is onto, for every finite or real closed…
Let R be a commutative Noetherian local ring with residue class field k. In this paper, we mainly investigate direct summands of the syzygy modules of k. We prove that R is regular if and only if some syzygy module of k has a semidualizing…
We set up the geometric background necessary to extend rigid cohomology from the case of algebraic varieties to the case of general locally noetherian formal schemes. In particular, we generalize Berthelot's strong fibration theorem to adic…
The generalisation of the well-known (Hilbert polynomial) criterion for flatness of a projective morphism of Noetherian schemes is given for the case of nonreduced base of the morphism.
Fix any field $K$ of characteristic $p$ such that $[K:K^p]$ is finite. We discuss excellence for Noetherian domains whose fraction field is $K$, showing for example, that $R$ is excellent if and only if the Frobenius map is finite on $R$.…
We study morphisms of schemes $f : X \to S$ which are locally of finite type. We present conditions under which there exists a morphism $g : S'\to X$ of $S$--schemes such that $f \circ g $ is the canonical morphism $S'\to S$. Furthermore,…
