The arc-topology
2021
We study a Grothendieck topology on schemes which we call the $\mathrm{arc}$-topology. This topology is a refinement of the $v$-topology (the pro-version of Voevodsky's $h$-topology) where covers are tested via rank $\leq 1$ valuation rings. Functors which are $\mathrm{arc}$-sheaves are forced to satisfy a variety of glueing conditions such as excision in the sense of algebraic $K$-theory.
We show that \'etale cohomology is an $\mathrm{arc}$-sheaf and deduce various pullback squares in \'etale cohomology. Using $\mathrm{arc}$-descent, we reprove the Gabber-Huber affine analog of proper base change (in a large class of examples), as well as the Fujiwara-Gabber base change theorem on the \'etale cohomology of the complement of a henselian pair. As a final application we prove a rigid analytic version of the Artin-Grothendieck vanishing theorem from SGA4, extending results of Hansen.
