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.

External classical coefficient, derived Yoneda and effective-localization interface

PDF p. 7: Lemma2.9: smooth-point supported purity

Statement

Over a perfect field, let A be the category of Nisnevich sheaves with transfers on smooth separated finite-type schemes, with integral coefficients. For j≥0, the classical complex Z(j) is bounded above and A¹-local. Its actual restriction functor is naturally modeled by RΓZar(Y,Z(j))≃RΓNis(Y,Z(j))≃RHom⁡D(A)(Ztr(Y),Z(j)). The first comparison is the canonical topology-change map, not a chosen isomorphism of groups; the second is derived Yoneda evaluation. Against an A¹-local target, localization identifies Hom in D−(A) with Hom in DMNiseff,−. These comparisons are natural for actual open maps, and derived Hom takes a cone in the source to the corresponding restriction fiber.

The Tate convention is Z(r)=C∗Ztr(Gm∧r)[−r] for r≥0. In the motive category this is the r-fold tensor power of Z(1), so Z(r)(d)≅Z(r+d) for r,d≥0. Classical negative weights are zero by MVW Definition3.1. The current EM construction itself has weights j≥0; extending its notation by zero for j<0 is an explicit convention, not another EM construction.

Source contract

Given: Perfect field, integral coefficients, the source's bounded-above effective category, smooth separated finite-type Y, AC and fixed small sites/universes.

Goal: Import the concrete classical coefficient model needed for the exact restriction/Hom calculation.

[F1] MVW13.1/13.4 give the sheaf-with-transfers category, enough injectives and actual Yoneda evaluation;13.5 describes its complex version. MVW13.10–13.11 give the canonical Zariski/Nisnevich comparison;14.6.1,14.8–14.12 and14.16 give A¹-local models and representability.

[F2] MVW Definition3.1, Example8.10, Definition14.2 and Lemma14.4 give the stated coefficient and Tate tensor conventions: singular-complex replacement is an A¹-equivalence, while pointed representables tensor as the smash product. This identifies Z(r)(d) with Z(r+d) in the motive category.

External input

Import [F1]–[F2] as the concrete derived coefficient package. At the chain level, the derived Yoneda assertion is implemented by resolving the coefficient and using Hom⁡(Ztr(Y),I)=I(Y) termwise. Injective sheaves with transfers are Nisnevich-acyclic by13.4, and the complex derived-evaluation interpretation is the standard hyperext construction recorded in13.5; no isomorphism of unrelated group functors is used to choose a restriction arrow. The local relative-Hom lemma applies the actual cone to these Hom complexes. Foundational derived resolutions, A¹-locality and the comparison foundations are imports; this does not claim a new reconstruction of all motivic categories.

Classical motivic complexes are A¹-local; their Nisnevich and Zariski hypercohomology agree by the canonical comparison. Derived Yoneda evaluates the coefficient on smooth schemes, and the A¹-local target computes Hom after localization. The source includes the actual derived Hom construction for geometric motives and coefficient complexes.

Hypotheses: Perfect field for A¹-locality and Zariski/Nisnevich comparison; smooth separated finite-type schemes as Sm/k; integral coefficients here; bounded-above complexes in the effective category. AC and resolution choices are retained explicitly.

Reading limits: Read actual full statements and displayed proofs at the indicated locators, including13.4,13.10,14.8–14.11 and14.16, and all of Remark14.12. Read Exercise13.5 as an exercise statement; no printed proof of that exercise is claimed. Its standard derived-evaluation conclusion is part of this explicit imported package, implemented by actual Yoneda on coefficient resolutions; it is not claimed to follow from objectwise Chow group agreement. Earlier foundational injective/derived constructions are not reconstructed.

Z(r) is the shifted singular complex on the r-fold pointed G_m smash; pointed representables tensor as smash products. Singular-complex replacement is an A¹-equivalence, yielding the ordinary Tate-power convention in DM. Definition3.1 explicitly puts Z(r)=0 for r<0.

Hypotheses: Nonnegative r for the tensor-power construction; nonnegative r,d for the effective twist identity. The negative-zero statement is a coefficient convention. Use the source smooth separated finite-type category.

Reading limits: Read the actual exact definitions, full Example8.10, Lemma14.4 statement and short proof reference, and the source Sm/k convention. The tensor-category/localization foundations are imported; no effective inverse Tate object in negative weight is asserted.
