How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

Cohomology of shifted Nisnevich units

PDF p. 4: Property (2)

Statement

Assume the Axiom of Choice and the size bounds in Derived global sections on a scheme site. For a scheme X, put A=RΓNis(X,Gm)[−1], using the small Nisnevich site and the sheaf of units of Units and Picard groups in Nisnevich degree zero and one. Then Hi(A)=HNisi−1(X,Gm) for every integer i; these groups are zero for i≤0, the global units for i=1, and Pic⁡(X) for i=2.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: X, the stated site, Choice, and the size bounds.

Goal: Compute the indicated cohomology groups.

[F1]

Derived sections of an abelian sheaf concentrated in degree zero have no negative cohomology (Derived global sections on a scheme site).

[F2]

Degree-zero Nisnevich cohomology of Gm is Γ(X,OX)×, and degree one is Pic⁡(X), the group of line bundles under tensor product (Units and Picard groups in Nisnevich degree zero and one).

Proof

1.1givenalgebra

For the cohomological shift, a complex C[−1] has C[−1]i=Ci−1, with the corresponding signed differential. Its cycles and boundaries in degree i are those of C in degree i−1, so Hi(C[−1])=Hi−1(C). Apply this to the derived-sections complex.

2.1F1F2step 1.1∎

If i≤0, then i−1<0, so [F1] gives zero. For i=1,2, [F2] gives global units and the Picard group respectively. These identifications use the specified small site and retain the Choice and size hypotheses.
