报告题目:Weil etale cohomology and applications

摘要:It is well known that l-adic cohomology does not yield good cohomology with integral coefficients. In the early 2000s, Lichtenbaum proposed the definition of cohomology groups, called Weil-etale cohomology, with better properties. We explain the definition of Weil-etale cohomology for varieties over finite fields, and its relationship to etale cohomology. As applications we discuss how Weil-etale cohomology allows nicer formulas for special values of zeta-functions over finite fields, and for the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture over function fields.
