Abstract

We show that Berkovich analytic geometry can be viewed as relative algebraic geometry in the sense of To\"{e}n--Vaqui\'{e}--Vezzosi over the category of non-Archimedean Banach spaces. For any closed symmetric monoidal quasi-abelian category we can define a topology on certain subcategories of the of the category of affine schemes with respect to this category. By examining this topology for the category of Banach spaces we recover the G-topology or the topology of admissible subsets on affinoids which is used in analytic geometry. This gives a functor of points approach to non-Archimedean analytic geometry and in this way we also get definitions of (higher) non-Archimedean analytic stacks. We demonstrate that the category of Berkovich analytic spaces embeds fully faithfully into the category of varieties in our version of relative algebraic geometry. We also include a treatment of quasi-coherent sheaf theory in analytic geometry. Along the way, we use heavily the homological algebra in quasi-abelian categories developed by Schneiders.
