Standard results from non-abelian cohomology theory specialize to a theory of torsors and stacks for cosimplicial groupoids. The space of global sections of the stack completion of a cosimplicial groupoid $G$ is weakly equivalent to the Bousfield–Kan total complex of $BG$ for all cosimplicial groupoids $G$. The $k$-invariants for the Postnikov tower of a cosimplicial space $X$ are naturally elements of stack cohomology for the stack associated to the fundamental groupoid ${\it\pi}(X)$ of $X$. Cocycle-theoretic ideas and techniques are used throughout the paper.

We construct $p$-adic families of Klingen–Eisenstein series and $L$-functions for cusp forms (not necessarily ordinary) unramified at an odd prime $p$ on definite unitary groups of signature $(r,0)$ (for any positive integer $r$) for a quadratic imaginary field ${\mathcal{K}}$ split at $p$. When $r=2$, we show that the constant term of the Klingen–Eisenstein family is divisible by a certain $p$-adic $L$-function.

We consider étale motivic or Lichtenbaum cohomology and its relation to algebraic cycles. We give an geometric interpretation of Lichtenbaum cohomology and use it to show that the usual integral cycle maps extend to maps on integral Lichtenbaum cohomology. We also show that Lichtenbaum cohomology, in contrast to the usual motivic cohomology, compares well with integral cohomology theories. For example, we formulate integral étale versions of the Hodge and the Tate conjecture, and show that these are equivalent to the usual rational conjectures.

In this paper, we prove that cyclic homology, topological cyclic homology, and algebraic $K$-theory satisfy a pro Mayer–Vietoris property with respect to abstract blow-up squares of varieties, in both zero and finite characteristic. This may be interpreted as the well-definedness of $K$-theory with compact support.

Suppose that $G$ is a connected reductive algebraic group defined over $\mathbf{R}$, $G(\mathbf{R})$ is its group of real points, ${\it\theta}$ is an automorphism of $G$, and ${\it\omega}$ is a quasicharacter of $G(\mathbf{R})$. Kottwitz and Shelstad defined endoscopic data associated to $(G,{\it\theta},{\it\omega})$, and conjectured a matching of orbital integrals between functions on $G(\mathbf{R})$ and its endoscopic groups. This matching has been proved by Shelstad, and it yields a dual map on stable distributions. We express the values of this dual map on stable tempered characters as a linear combination of twisted characters, under some additional hypotheses on $G$ and ${\it\theta}$.

We prove that étale morphisms of schemes yield separable extensions of derived categories. We then generalize the Neeman–Thomason localization theorem to separable extensions of triangulated categories.

This paper deals with the geometric local theta correspondence at the Iwahori level for dual reductive pairs of type II over a non-Archimedean field $F$ of characteristic $p\neq 2$ in the framework of the geometric Langlands program. First we construct and study the geometric version of the invariants of the Weil representation of the Iwahori-Hecke algebras. In the particular case of $(\mathbf{GL}_{1},\mathbf{GL}_{m})$ we give a complete geometric description of the corresponding category. The second part of the paper deals with geometric local Langlands functoriality at the Iwahori level in a general setting. Given two reductive connected groups $G$ and $H$ over $F$, and a morphism ${\check{G}}\times \text{SL}_{2}\rightarrow \check{H}$ of Langlands dual groups, we construct a bimodule over the affine extended Hecke algebras of $H$ and $G$ that should realize the geometric local Arthur–Langlands functoriality at the Iwahori level. Then, we propose a conjecture describing the geometric local theta correspondence at the Iwahori level constructed in the first part in terms of this bimodule, and we prove our conjecture for pairs $(\mathbf{GL}_{1},\mathbf{GL}_{m})$.
