Iterated descent obstructions for algebraic stacks

Number Theory 2024-10-01 v1

Abstract

Base on a conjecture, we prove that for any smooth separated stack of finite type over a number field, its descent obstruction equals its iterated descent obstruction. As a consequence, we show that for any algebraic stack over a number field that has a finite etale covering of a smooth geometrically integral variety, its descent obstruction equals its iterated descent obstruction.
