Finite-depth conjecture for étale sheaves
Let be a smooth variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic , and let . Write for its singular support and let be a smooth point of . The finite-depth conjecture. The complex has finite depth at every smooth point of . The conjecture extends the paper's finite-depth theorem beyond the hypotheses treated there; the condition ensures that there are enough test functions for the depth to be defined. Its general validity remains open.
