We define generalizations of classical invariants of wild ramification for coverings on a variety of arbitrary dimension over a local field. For an l-adic sheaf, we define its Swan class as a 0-cycle class supported on the wild ramification…
We propose a geometric method to measure the wild ramification of a smooth etale sheaf along the boundary. Using the method, we study the graded quotients of the logarithmic ramification groups of a local field of positive characteristic…
We introduce the characteristic class of an l-adic etale sheaf using a cohomological pairing due to Verdier (SGA5). As a consequence of the Lefschetz-Verdier trace formula, its trace computes the Euler-Poincare characteristic of the sheaf.…
The Grothendieck-Ogg-Shafarevich formula calculates the l-adic Euler-Poincare number of an l-adic sheaf on a curve by an invariant produced by the wild ramification of the l-adic sheaf named Swan class. A. Abbes, K. Kato and T. Saito…
We prove that wild ramification of a constructible sheaf on a surface is determined by that of the restrictions to all curves. We deduce from this result that the Euler-Poincar\'e characteristic of a constructible sheaf on a variety of…
In this article, we give a bound for the wild ramification of the monodromy action on the nearby cycles complex of a locally constant \'etale sheaf on the generic fiber of a smooth scheme over an equal characteristic trait in terms of Abbes…
M. Levine proved an enrichment of the classical Riemann-Hurwitz formula to an equality in the Grothendieck-Witt group of quadratic forms. In its strongest form, Levine's theorem includes a technical hypothesis on ramification relevant in…
Let $K=k((t))$ be a local field of characteristic $p>0$, with perfect residue field $k$. Let $\vec{a}=(a_0,a_1,\dots,a_{n-1})\in W_n(K)$ be a Witt vector of length $n$. Artin-Schreier-Witt theory associates to $\vec{a}$ a cyclic extension…
Formal orbifolds are defined in higher dimension. Their \'etale fundamental groups are also defined. It is shown that the fundamental groups of formal orbifolds have certain finiteness property and it is also shown that they can be used to…
In this article, we prove that the Swan conductor of an \'etale sheaf on a smooth variety defined by Abbes and Saito's logarithmic ramification theory can be computed by its classical Swan conductors after restricting it to curves. It…
This article studies the variation of the Swan conductor of a lisse \'etale sheaf of $\mathbb{F}_{\ell}$-modules $\mathcal{F}$ on the rigid unit disc $D$ over a complete discrete valuation field $K$ with algebraically closed residue field…
This article is devoted to studying the ramification of Galois torsors and of $\ell$-adic sheaves in characteristic $p>0$ (with $\ell\not=p$). Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$, $X$ be a smooth, separated and quasi-compact…
Over a connected geometrically unibranch scheme $X$ of finite type over a finite field, we show finiteness of the number of irreducible $\bar \Q_\ell$-lisse sheaves, with bounded rank and bounded ramification in the sense of Drinfeld, up to…
We define the characteristic cycle of a locally constant \'etale sheaf on a smooth variety in positive characteristic ramified along boundary as a cycle in the cotangent bundle of the variety, at least on a neighborhood of the generic point…
Let $L/K$ be an extension of complete discrete valuation fields, and assume that the residue field of $K$ is perfect and of positive characteristic. The residue field of $L$ is not assumed to be perfect. In this paper, we prove a formula…
We prove a purely local form of a result of Saito and Yatagawa. They proved that the characteristic cycle of a constructible \'etale sheaf is determined by wild ramification of the sheaf along the boundary of a compactification. But they…
We develop, for an l-adic etale sheaf on a complete trait of characteristic p>0, the notion of characteristic variety. Our approach, inspired by the microlocal analysis of Kashiwara and Schapira, is a complement to our ramification theory…
We show that compatible systems of $\ell$-adic sheaves on a scheme of finite type over the ring of integers of a local field are compatible along the boundary up to stratification. This extends a theorem of Deligne on curves over a finite…
We prove Bloch's formula for the Chow group of 0-cycles with modulus on smooth projective varieties over finite fields. The proof relies on two new results in global ramification theory.
In order to study $p$-adic \'etale cohomology of an open subvariety $U$ of a smooth proper variety $X$ over a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$, we introduce new $p$-primary torsion sheaves. It is a modification of the logarithmic de…
