Local structure of smooth \texorpdfstring{$p$}{p}-adic analytic Artin stacks
Amos Kaminski
Abstract
We prove \cite[Conjecture~5.17]{Clausen} on the local light--profinite structure of smooth $p$-adic analytic Artin stacks. The argument proceeds in several reductions. First, by proving a generalization of van~Dantzig theorem for groupoids, we reduce the conjecture to the compact Hausdorff case. This reduces the conjecture to the statement that the geometric realization of a groupoid object whose object and morphism spaces are light profinite and whose source and target maps are open is light profinite. Next, we simplify the groupoid by constructing a closed skeleton; after quotienting by a clopen subgroupoid, the remaining problem reduces to proving that a profinite family of finite groups can be presented as an inverse limit of finite families of finite groups. As observed by Clausen immediately after \cite[Conjecture~5.17]{Clausen}, our result implies in particular that smooth $p$-adic analytic Artin stacks are \emph{$!$-good}.
