The twisting classification conjecture for three-functor formalisms

At least 1 year old · documented by

Let C\mathcal{C} be an ∞\infty-category, and let

D:Corr⁡(C)⊗→Cat⁡∞\mathcal{D}:\operatorname{Corr}(\mathcal{C})^\otimes\to\operatorname{Cat}_\infty

be a three-functor formalism. Let LZD⊗\mathfrak{LZ}_\mathcal{D}^\otimes be its symmetric monoidal (∞,2)(\infty,2)-category of cohomological correspondences, with underlying symmetric monoidal ∞\infty-category LZ⁡D⊗\operatorname{LZ}_\mathcal{D}^\otimes. Write TCT_\mathcal{C} for the twist object and D∗\mathcal{D}^* for the associated functor.

Twisting classification conjecture. There is a canonical isomorphism of anima

Hom⁡CAlg⁡(Cat⁡∞)Cop⁡,⊔/(Corr⁡(C)⊗,LZ⁡D⊗)≃Hom⁡Fun⁡(Cop⁡,CAlg⁡(Cat⁡∞))(TC,D∗).\operatorname{Hom}_{\operatorname{CAlg}(\operatorname{Cat}_\infty)_{\mathcal{C}^{\operatorname{op},\sqcup}/}}(\operatorname{Corr}(\mathcal{C})^\otimes,\operatorname{LZ}_\mathcal{D}^\otimes)\simeq \operatorname{Hom}_{\operatorname{Fun}(\mathcal{C}^{\operatorname{op}},\operatorname{CAlg}(\operatorname{Cat}_\infty))}(T_\mathcal{C},\mathcal{D}^*).

This conjecture aims to characterize the six-functor formalisms obtained by twisting a given formalism. It is presented as an outlook for cases not covered by Scholze's conjecture, and in particular asks for a construction of the twisted three-functor formalisms.
