Chapter XII: The categorical trace
12.3 Categorical traces of rigid monoidal categories
We letR =LincatΞ. Categorical traces of rigid monoidal categories have particu- larly nice formal properties. Namely, the rigidity implies (in fact is equivalent to) the monadicity of Hochschild complex.
Lemma 12.3.1. Assume that π΄ is rigid and πΉ is an π΄-bimodule. Then for every πΌ: [π] β [π], the diagram
HH(π΄, πΉ)π+1 //
πHH
0
HH(π΄, πΉ)π+1
πHH
0
HH(π΄, πΉ)π //HH(π΄, πΉ)π
(12.15)
is right-adjointable. I.e., the cosimplicial objectHH(π΄, πΉ)β’obtained fromHH(π΄, πΉ)β’ by passing to the right adjoints satisfies the Beck-Chevalley conditions. In particu- lar,
|HH(π΄, πΉ)β’| Tot(HH(π΄, πΉ)β’) LModπ(πΉ), withπ the monad given toπHH
0 β¦ (πHH
1 )π .
Proof. To prove the first statement, we may assume thatπΌ is either a coboundary map or a coface map. In the case that πΌ is a coboundary map, the induced map HH(π΄, πΉ)π = π΄βπ βπΉ β HH(π΄, πΉ)π = π΄βπ βπΉ is a right π΄-module morphism with respect to the rightπ΄-action on the last factorπΉ. As such morphism is induced by inserting the unit at an appropriate position, it admits a continuous right adjoint, which by (Dennis Gaitsgory and Rozenblyum, 2017a, Lemma 1.9.3.6) is an π΄- module morphism. This exactly means that the commutative diagram in the lemma is right-adjointable whenπΌis a coboundary map.
Next, assume that πΌ = ππ is a coface map. As explained in (Dennis Gaitsgory and Rozenblyum, 2017a, Lemma 1.9.3.2), for a left π΄-module π, the action map π : π΄β π β π admits a continuous right adjointππ given by
π ModΞ β π
(ππ β¦1π΄)βidπ
ββββββββββββ π΄β π΄β π id
π΄βπ
βββββ π΄β π
and moreover the functorππ is a morphism of π΄-modules (a-priori it is only lax).
Similar statements hold for right π΄-modules. From these facts, one sees that the commutative diagram is right-adjointable for πΌ = ππ. Indeed, since each of the functors only these claim reduce to the diagrams with[π] β€ 1. and the requirement of right adjointability is exactly the fact that πΉ β π΄ β πΉ and π΄ β π΄ β π΄ are morphisms ofπ΄-modules.
That |HH(π΄, πΉ)β’| Tot(HH(π΄, πΉ)β’) follows from (9.1) and the last equivalence follows from the first assertion and Theorem 9.0.5. β‘ The following statements directly follow from the proof.
Corollary 12.3.2. Assume thatπ΄is rigid. LetπΉ
1 β πΉ
2be a fully faithful functor of π΄-bimodules. Then the induced functor
Tr(π΄, πΉ
1) βTr(π΄, πΉ
2) is fully faithful.
Proof. By Lemma 12.3.1 the functor between the trace categories can be realized as a limit of functors between Hochschild complexes, so to get fully faithfulness it is enough to have level-wise fully faithfulness of the functorsπ΄βπβΞπΉ
1β π΄βπβΞπΉ
2
for allπ β₯ 0. Each of these can be realized via a bar construction with ModΞ so it is enough to show that As π΄ is rigid, it is canonically self-dual as an object of R, it is enough to show that the functor LFunΞ(π΄, πΉ
1) β LFunΞ(π΄, πΉ
2) between categories of Ξ-linear functors, is fully faithful. Fully faithfulness is then known (see for example (Gepner, Haugseng, and Nikolaus, n.d., Lemma 5.2.) β‘ Corollary 12.3.3. An π΄-bimodule functor πΉ
1 β πΉ
2 induces a functor between cosimplicial objectsHH(π΄, πΉ
1)β’βHH(π΄, πΉ
2)β’. In addition, the following diagram is right adjointable
πΉ1 [β]πΉ

Tr(π΄, πΉ
1)
πΉ2 [β]πΉ
2//Tr(π΄, πΉ
2) IfπΉ
1 β πΉ
2admits a continuous right adjoint (as plainΞ-linear presentable stable categories), then the following diagram is right adjointable
πΉ1 [β]πΉ
1 //πΉ
2 [β]πΉ
2
Tr(π΄, πΉ
1) //Tr(π΄, πΉ
2)
Remark 12.3.4. Assume that π΄ is rigid. Let π be a left π΄-module. LetModΞ β π βπ΄ π and π β π β π΄be the duality datum for π as a left π΄-module. Then it follows easily from the above corollary thatπ is the dual ofπ inLincatΞ with the duality datum given by
ModΞ β π βπ΄ π
[β]π
ββββπ β π , π βπ β π΄ Hom
(1π΄,β)
βββββββββ ModΞ, where [β]π denotes the continuous right adjoint of[β]πβπ.
One can also easily deduce the following corollary, which has appeared in (D.
Gaitsgory et al., 2019, Theorem 3.8.5).
Corollary 12.3.5. Assume that π΄is rigid, equipped with a monoidal endomorphism π : π΄β π΄. Then
tr(π΄, π) EndTr(π΄,π)( [1π΄]ππ΄)
asΞ-algebras. Letπbe a leftπ΄-module equipped with anπ΄-module homomorphism πΌ : π β ππ΄βπ΄ π = ππ. Assume that π is dualizable inLincatΞ. Then under the above isomorphism, HomTr(π΄,π)( [1π΄]ππ΄,[π , πΌ]ππ΄) is isomorphic to tr(π , π) as modules.
Proof. Applying the monad from Lemma 12.3.1 to1π΄, we see that EndTr(π΄,π)( [1π΄]ππ΄) is isomorphic to Homππ΄(1π΄, π(1π΄))as algebras, which is given by
ModΞ 1π΄

1π
π΄β¦π
βββββModΞform a duality datum of π΄(regarded as object in LincatΞ).
It follows that Homππ΄(1π΄, π(1π΄)) tr(π΄, π). The case of module is similar. β‘ The following description of hom spaces between certain objects in Tr(π΄, π) is useful in practice.
Corollary 12.3.6. Assume that π΄ is rigid and is compactly generated, with {ππ} being a set of compact generators. Then for π , π β π΄withπ compact in π΄,
HomTr(π΄,π)( [π]ππ΄,[π]ππ΄) colim
πΆβπΆ
/ππ (π)
Homπ΄(π , ππ β π(ππ)), whereπΆ βπΆ β π΄β π΄denotes the full subcategory spanned by{ππβ ππ}π, π.
Note that a morphismππβ ππ β ππ (π)inπ΄βπ΄is equivalent to a morphismππβππ β π in π΄. So informally, this corollary says that every morphism [π]ππ΄ β [π]ππ΄ in Tr(π΄, π)can be represented as a pair of morphisms(π βππβπ(ππ), ππβππ βπ) in π΄(compare with (Zhu, 2016b, Β§3.1)).
Proof. We have
HomTr(π΄,π)( [π]ππ΄,[π]ππ΄) Homππ΄(π , πβ¦swβ¦ππ (π)).
Asπ΄is compactly generated, so isπ΄β π΄with a set of compact generators given by {ππβ ππ}π, π. Then ππ (π) = colimππβ ππβπππβ ππ. As π is compact, the corollary
follows. β‘
Remark 12.3.7. In fact, the above corollary admits a more economic form. Namely, suppose we write ππ (1π΄) colimπ(ππ,
1 β ππ,
2) as a filtered colimit of compact objects in π΄ β π΄. Then as ππ is a right π΄-module homomorphism, we have ππ (π) colimπ(ππ,
1β (ππ,
2βπ)). Therefore, HomTr(π΄,π)( [π]ππ΄,[π]ππ΄) colim
π Homπ΄(π , ππ,
2βπ β π(ππ,
1)).
As mentioned above, if π΄ is rigid, then it is dualizable as object in LincatΞ. It follows from (Dennis Gaitsgory and Rozenblyum, 2017a, Proposition 9.5.3) that π΄π and π΄π from (12.6) admit left duals, denoted byππ΄ andππ΄ respectively, which we can identify with π΄-bimodules under the equivalence π΄revβπ΄BMod1 π΄BModπ΄ (resp. 1BModπ΄βπ΄rev π΄BModπ΄). By (Lurie, 2017, Remark 4.6.5.4), there is an automorphism ππ΄ of π΄ (as a monoidal category), usually called the Serre functor of π΄, such thatππ΄ =ππ΄π΄as π΄-bimodules.
Example 12.3.8. We recall that a pivotal category is a rigid monoidal category equipped with an isomorphismidπ΄ ππ΄. If π΄is compactly generated, this means that forπ β π΄compact,πβ¨, πΏ andπβ¨, π are functorially isomorphic.
Assume that π΄is pivotal. Assume thatπis anπ΄-bimodule, dualizable as aΞ-linear category, withβ¨πits left dual. ThenTr(π΄, π)is dualizable withTr(π΄, πβ¨)is dual.

GEOMETRIC TRACES IN SHEAF THEORY
Following ideas of (Ben-Zvi and Nadler, 2009) (Ben-Zvi, Nadler, and Preygel, 2017) to develop a method to calculate the (twisted) categorical trace of monoidal categories arising from convolution pattern in algebraic geometry. As mentioned before, Compared with the work of loc. cit., we will first calculate a geometric version of categorical trace. Then we will compare the geometric version with the usual version in favorable cases. Our approach allows us to bypass integral transform of sheaf theories, which usually do not hold in theβ-adic setting.
13.1 Geometric Hochschild homology
We use the formalism of category of correspondences and sheaf theory as in Chap- ter 10.
Let π΄ be an associative algebra object in Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘ , βππ π π§, and let π be a left π΄- module object in Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘ , βππ π π§. AsDis a lax symmetric monoidal functor,D (π΄) is an algebra object in LincatΞandD (π)is aD (π΄)-module object in LincatΞ, with multiplication and action maps given by
D (π΄) β D (π΄)ββ D (β π΄Γ π΄) β D (π΄) D (π΄) β D (π)ββ D (β π΄Γπ) β D (π)
Similarly, if πΉ is an π΄-bimodule, then D (πΉ)is an D (π΄)-bimodule. Then one can form its Hochschild homology (a.k.a categorical trace) of (D (π΄),D (πΉ))
Tr(D (π΄),D (πΉ)) =D (π΄) βD (π΄)βD (π΄)rev D (πΉ) βLincatΞ.
In practice, however, we need to consider a variant Trgeo(D (π΄),D (πΉ)), which we call the geometric trace ofD (πΉ). Namely, we consider the Yoneda embedding
Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§ β P (Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§),
whereP (Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§)is the category of presheaves on Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§equipped with the induced symmetric monoidal structure, which by definition preserves col- imits in each variable (see (Lurie, 2017, Corollary 4.8.1.12). Then we have the Hochschild homology of the π΄-bimoduleπΉ inP (Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§)
Tr(π΄, πΉ) :=|HH(π΄, πΉ)β’| β P (Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§).
By the universal property ofP (Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§), the functorD : Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§ β LincatΞextends to a continuous functorD :P (Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§) β LincatΞ. Then we define thegeometric traceofD (πΉ)as
Trgeo(D (π΄),D (πΉ)) :=D (Tr(π΄, πΉ)).
Explicitly, Trgeo(D (πΉ),D (π΄))can be computed in the following way. We first apply the functorDto the standard Hochschild complex (12.4) (which now is a simplicial object in Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘ , βππ π π§) to obtain a simplicial objectD (HHβ’(π΄, πΉ))in LincatΞ. Then the geometric trace Trgeo(D (π΄),D (πΉ)) is the geometric realization of this simplicial object in LincatΞ
Trgeo(D (π΄),D (πΉ)) |D (HH(π΄, πΉ)β’) |. (13.1) We emphasize that Trgeo(D (π΄),D (πΉ)) depends not only on D (πΉ), but on the π΄-bimoduleπΉ itself (and of course the functorD).
In particular, for π΄ equipped with an algebra endomorphism π : π΄ β π΄we have the π΄-bimoduleπΉ =ππ΄in Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘ , βππ π π§ as before. We write
Trgeo(D (π΄), π) =Trgeo(D (π΄),D (ππ΄)).
Remark 13.1.1. As D is equipped with a lax monoidal structure we get a natural comparison functor
Tr(D (π΄),D (πΉ)) β |D (π΄)ββ’β D (πΉ) | β |D (π΄ββ’β πΉ) | =Trgeo(D (π΄),D (πΉ)) (13.2) from the usual trace ofD (πΉ) to the geometric trace. This functor is not an equiva- lence in general. Of course, if for eachπ, the functorD (π΄)βπβ D (π) β D (π΄πΓπ) is an equivalence, then the comparison map(13.2) is an equivalence. We will see later that this functor is an equivalence in many more cases of interest.
13.2 Fixed point objects and geometric traces of convolution categories We specialize the previous constructions to the situation appearing in our applica- tions. Letπ β Csatisfying conditions as in Example 10.1.2 (that is,Ξπ : π β πΓπ and ππ : π β pt belong to πΆβππ π π§). Let π: π β π in Cπ£ ππ π‘ and assume that the relative diagonal mapΞπ/π : π β π Γπ π belongs to π£ ππ π‘. Let πβ’ β π denote the Δech nerve of π. From Example 10.3.3 and Remark 10.3.6, it gives rise to an object Alg(EndCorr(C)(π))which induces
π1:= πΓπ π
with the structure of an associative algebra object in Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§. The multi- plication and unit maps are given by
πΓπ πΓπ π (πΓπ π) Γ (π Γπ π)
π Γπ π
idΓΞπΓid
idΓπΓid ,
π pt
πΓπ π
Ξπ/π ,
Letπ β Cequipped with two morphismsππ: π βπ , π =1,2 inCand let π= πΓπ π Γπ π = πΓπΓπ (πΓ π).
Then via the construction of Section 10.4 the object π admits the structure of an (πΓπ π)-bimodule in Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§. In particular, the left action is given by the diagram
πΓπ π Γπ πΓπ π (π Γπ π) Γ (πΓπ π Γπ π)
πΓπ πΓπ π
idΓπΓidΓid
and we have a similar diagram for the right action. Consider the following diagram πΓπΓπ π
πΏ0=(ΞπΓidπ)//
π=(πΓidπ)
(πΓπ) ΓπΓπ π
π ΓπΓπ π ,
(13.3)
which induces a functorπβ β¦ (πΏ
0)β : D (πΓπ π Γπ π) β D (π ΓπΓπ π). Proposition 13.2.1. The following diagram is commutative
D (πΓπ πΓπ π) (πΏ0)
β //
D (π ΓπΓπ π)
πβ
Tr(D (π Γπ π),D (πΓπ π Γπ π))
Trgeo(D (πΓπ π),D (πΓπ πΓπ π)) //D (π ΓπΓπ π).
Assume that the sheaf theoryD satisfies Assumptions 11.2.1 1-3, and assume that:
1. Ξπ : π β πΓπ β Cπ π, 2. π: π βπ β Cππ π π,
3. Ξπ/π: π β πΓπ π is inCππ π π.
Then the bottom horizontal functor of the above diagram is fully faithful, with the essential image is generated under colimits by the image ofπβ β¦πΏβ
0.
The proof of the proposition will be given at the end of Section 13.3. We note that there is no assumption on (π
1, π
2) : π βπΓπ.
We specialize Proposition 13.2.1 to the following two cases. First, assume we are given morphisms ππ: π β π and ππ: π β π in C intertwined by π, that is, equipped with an equivalence π β¦ππ β ππ β¦ π. We will usually abuse notation and denote both maps byπif it is clear from context. We letπ =π with the mapπ
1=id andπ
2 = π. In this case, π ΓπΓπ π is nothing but the π-fixed point objectLπ(π), defined by the pullback
Lπ(π) π
π πΓπ .
ππ Ξπ
idΓπ
(13.4)
We assume in addition thatππ is an equivalence. In this case the(πΓπ π)-module πΓππΓππis isomorphic to theπ-twisted moduleπ(πΓππ), with the isomorphism sending(π₯ , π§, π₯β²) β πΓπ πΓπ π to (π(π₯), π₯β²) β π(πΓπ π). Then (13.3) becomes
π Γπ Lπ(π) πΏ0 //
π
πΓπ π
Lπ(π)
Corollary 13.2.2. Under the same assumption as in Proposition 13.2.1 and given ππ, ππ as above, there is a canonical factorization
D (πΓπ π) D (πΓπΓπ (πΓπ π))
Trgeo(D (πΓπ π), π) D (Lππ)
(πΏ0)β
πβ
with the lower horizontal arrow is fully faithful. The essential image is generated under colimits by the image ofπβ β¦πΏβ
0. Another case we need to consider isπ =π
1Γπ
2withππ:ππβπ two maps inC. In this case,
π ΓπΓππ =π
1Γπ π
2, πΓπΓπ (π Γπ) = (π
1Γπ π) Γ (πΓπ π
2),
We denote:
D (π
1Γπ π) βgeo
D (πΓππ) D (πΓπ π
2) :=Trgeo(D (π Γπ π),D (πΓπΓπ (π Γπ)), (13.5) which is the geometric analogue of the relative tensor product.
Corollary 13.2.3. Under the same assumption as in Proposition 13.2.1, we have a canonical square
D ( (π
1Γπ π) Γ (πΓπ π
2)) (idπ1ΓΞπΓidπ2)
β
//
D (π
1Γπ πΓπ π
2)
(idπ1ΓπΓidπ2)β
D (π
1Γπ π) βD (geoπΓ
ππ) D (πΓπ π
2) //D (π
1Γπ π
2)
with the bottom functor fully faithful. The essential image is generated under colimits by the image of(idπ1Γ π Γidπ2)β β¦ (idπ1ΓΞπ Γidπ2)β .
Again, there is no assumption onπ
1andπ
2.
13.3 The geometric trace and relative resolutions
Now we prove Proposition 13.2.1. In fact, (to save notations) we will prove a slightly general statement. We consider the geometric trace for pair BMod(Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§) arising from an associative algebra π
1 β Alg EndCorr(C)(π
0)
and a bi-module objectπ β π
1BModπ1(EndCorr(C)(π
0)). Roughly speaking, these are pairs(π
1, π) seen as objects in the category BMod(Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§) consisting of an algebra π1 βAlg(Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§)whose multiplication and unit maps are of the form
π1Γπ

and an π

π1Γπ
0 π π
1Γπ
π

ππ ,
πΓπ

π

ππ . (13.7)
Here we require Ξπ

0 β π
0 Γ π
0 and ππ
0 : π
0 β pt belong to Cβππ π π§ (so π, ππ, ππ β Cβππ π π§ as well) and π, π’, ππ, ππ β Cπ£ ππ π‘. See Remark 10.4.1 for more details and references.
We can then consider the geometric trace Trgeo(D (π
1),D (π))=D (Tr(π
1, π)) |D (HH(π
1, π)β’) |
defined in the previous section. On the other hand, the extra structure on the algebra and module allows one to construct a variant of the geometric trace.
In the monoidal category EndCorr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§(π
0) we consider the Bar complex of the algebra object π
1, which we denoted by Barπ0(π
1)β’. Under the lax monoidal functor EndCorr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§(π
0) β Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§, it gives a simplicial object in Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§ (in fact in Cπ£ ππ π‘), denoted by the same notation, which can be written as
Barπ0(π
1)β’ πβ’Γπ
0Γπ0 (π
1Γπ
1), where the two maps ππ β π
0 corresponds to {0} β {0,1, . . . , π} and {π} β {0,1, . . . , π} respectively and π
1Γπ
1 β π
0Γ π

Bar(π
1)β’β Barπ0(π

in Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§. It follows that we obtain a map of simplicial objects in Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§

and define the π

Trgeoπ0 (D (π
1),D (π)) :=D (Trπ0(π

Proposition 13.3.1. Assume that the sheaf theory D satisfies Assumptions 11.2.1 1-3. In addition, in the notations of (13.6)and(13.7)assume that
1. π: π

Then the functorπΏβ from(13.9)is fully faithful. The essential image is generated un- der colimits by the image ofD (π) (πΏ0)

Proof. Passing to right adjoints gives a natural transformation (πΏβ’)β : D (HHπ0(π
1, π)β’) β D (HH(π
1, π)β’)
of cosimplicial categories. To prove the left adjointπΏβ is fully faithful we will use Theorem 9.0.5 and Corollary 9.0.6. The first step is to verify each of the cosimplicial categories satisfies the Beck-Chevalley conditions.
Lemma 13.3.2. Under the assumptions of Proposition 13.3.1, the cosimplicial cate- gories obtained from the simplicial categoriesD (HH(π
1, π)β’)andD (HHπ0(π
1, π)β’) by passing to right adjoints satisfy the Beck-Chevalley conditions.
Proof. For the cosimplicial categoryD (HHπ0(π
1, π)β’), the face maps correspond- ing to 0β¦β0 β [π]are given by the right adjoints(π
0)β of(π
0)β . All the morphisms π,ππ,ππ are inCππ π π by assumption and therefore all maps of the simplicial object D (HHπ0(π

It is left to deal with D (HHβ’(π

In the case of co-face map, we may assume that πΌ = ππ : [π] β [π+1], that is, πΌ(π) =πfor allπ. (The proof is similar in all other cases.) Then the diagram (13.10) is explicitly given by

We have π0

π , π, and the vertical arrows in (13.11) are given by (ππ , π)β β¦ (ππ , π)β . Left adjointability of 13.11 then means that the natural map

1)β β¦ (ππ ,π+
1)β β (ππ ,π)β β¦ (ππ ,π)β β¦ (ππ ,π)β β¦ (ππ ,π)β

As the mapsππ , π, ππ , π,πΛπ,πΛπ belong toCπ π, the right equivalence of (13.12) holds by Assumptions 11.2.12 and the equivalences (13.13) hold by Assumptions 11.2.1 3 and 4.
In the case of co-degeneracy map, we can assumeπΌ =π

where all squares are Cartesian. As before, in order to show the corresponding adjointability equivalence it is enough to show the corresponding commutativity in each square. As the map π’: π
0 β π
1 is in Cππ π π, the upper two squares of the diagram can be handled as in the co-face map case. For the remaining squares, we need the maps
(ππ ,π)β β¦ (ππ+
1)β β (πΛ)β β¦ (πΛπ)β , (ππ ,π)β β¦ (πΛ)β β (ππ)β β¦ (πΛπ)β to be equivalences. Asππ

Now we specialize the above discussions to the caseπ
1= πΓππandπ= πΓππΓππ as in Proposition 13.2.1. In this case, the relative Hochschild complex has a simple interpretation. Consider the fiber product
π ΓπΓπ π π
π π Γπ
Ξπ
π=π

inCand consider the mapπ = π Γidπ : πΓπΓπ π βπ ΓπΓπ π.
Lemma 13.3.3. There is a canonical equivalence of simplicial objects inπΆ. HHπ(πΓπ π , π Γπ π Γπ π)β’β πβ’ΓπΓπ π
where the right hand side is the Δech nerve ofπ : πΓπΓπ π βπ ΓπΓπ π. Under the identification, the mapπΏ
0from(13.8)is the horizontal map in(13.3).
Proof. The construction of the left hand side is natural in π and applying it to the identity mapπ β π gives the right hand side. Thus, π: π β π induces an augmentation HHπ(πΓπ π , πΓπ πΓπ π)β’of the corresponding simplicial object.
In order to identify this augmented simplicial object with the Δech nerve ofπ, can use the characterization (Lurie, 2009, Proposition 6.1.2.11) as it is easy to check
that the necessary squares are pullbacks. β‘
Proof of Proposition 13.2.1. Only fully faithfulness requires a proof. Consider the augmented simplicial category associated to the Δech nerve ofπ. As π β Cππ π π so is the mapπΓπΓππ βπΓπΓπ π. Using Lemma 13.3.3 we identify the Δech nerve of this map with the relative Hochschild complex. By passing to right adjoints and using Corollary 9.0.6 we get a fully faithful functor
D (HHπ(πΓπ π , πΓπΓπ (πΓπ))β’)
β D (πΓπΓπ π). (13.15) Composition with the fully faithful functor from Proposition 13.3.1 gives the desired functor. The essential image of (13.15) is generated by the image of π
β so the
description of the essential image follows. β‘
We record the following functorality for later purpose. Let (π : π β π) β Cπ£ ππ π‘, with Ξπ, ππ β Cβππ π π§ and Ξπ/π β Cπ£ ππ π‘. Let π β πΆ β πβ² be a morphism in Corr(C/πΓπ)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§, i.e. all π , πβ², πΆ are equipped with morphisms toπ Γπ and πΆ β π andπΆ β πβ²are(πΓπ)-morphisms inC.
Let πβ’ be as above and letπβ² = π Γπ πβ²Γπ π andπ = π Γπ π Γπ π. Then the following diagram is commutative
D (πβ²) //
Tr(D (π
1),D (πβ²)) //
Trgeo(D (π
1),D (πβ²)) //
D (π ΓπΓπ πβ²)
D (π) //Tr(D (π
1),D (π)) //Trgeo(D (π
1),D (π)) //D (πΓπΓπ π). (13.16) Remark 13.3.4. When we take Cto be the category of (nice) algebraic stacks over Cand the sheaf theoryD to beD-modules, one always hasTrgeo(D(πΓπ π), π)= Tr(D(π Γπ π), π) as D(π) β D(π) D(π Γπ). Therefore, Corollary 13.2.2 recovers (Ben-Zvi and Nadler, 2009, Theorem 6.6). In loc. cit., instead of directly consideringD(HHπ(πΓππ , πΓπ π)β’), the authors used the relative bar resolution for the monoidal categoryD(π Γπ π)and then used integral transforms to embed each level in the resulting simplicial object of this relative resolution fully faithfully into the corresponding level ofD(HHπ(π Γπ π , π Γπ π)β’). Our method bypasses using the integral transforms, which might fail in other sheaf theoretic content. See Section 13.4 for discussions.
13.4 Comparison between geometric and ordinary traces
In practice, we need to compare the geometric trace defined and studied as above with the ordinary traces reviewed in Section 12.1. The easiest situation has been discussed in Remark 13.1.1. On the other hand, the monadicity of the simplicial objects in Lemma 13.3.2 can be used to compare the usual trace and the geometric trace in other situations. Recall notations in (13.6).
Proposition 13.4.1. Assume that the sheaf theoryD : Corr(C)π£ ππ π‘;βππ π π§ βLincatΞ
satisfies the following condition: for everyπ , π β C, the exterior tensor product
β :D (π) β D (π) β D (πΓπ)
is fully faithful and admits a continuous right adjoint β π (see Remark 11.1.1.) In addition, Assumptions 11.2.1 1-6 hold forD.
