Travaux de Gabber sur l'uniformisation locale et la cohomologie etale des schemas quasi-excellents. Seminaire a l'Ecole polytechnique 2006--2008

This book contains notes of a seminar on Ofer Gabber’s work on the etale cohomology and uniformization of quasi-excellent schemes. His main results include (cf. introduction) constructibility theorems (for abelian or non-abelian coefficients), vanishing theorems (e.g. affine Lefschetz), uniformization for the “prime-to-l alteration topology”, rigidity for non-abelian coefficients, a new proof of the absolute purity conjecture, duality, etc.
