Remark 63.9.5. Let $f : X \to Y$ be a finite type separated morphism of schemes with $Y$ quasi-compact and quasi-separated. Below we will construct a map

\[ Rf_!K \longrightarrow Rf_*K \]

functorial for $K$ in $D^+_{tors}(X_{\acute{e}tale}, \Lambda )$ or $D(X_{\acute{e}tale}, \Lambda )$ if $\Lambda $ is torsion. This transformation of functors in both cases is compatible with

  1. the isomorphism $Rg_! \circ Rf_! \to R(g \circ f)_!$ of Lemma 63.9.2 and the isomorphism $Rg_* \circ Rf_* \to R(g \circ f)_*$ of Cohomology on Sites, Lemma 21.19.2 and

  2. the isomorphism $g^{-1} \circ Rf_! \to Rf'_! \circ (g')^{-1}$ of Lemma 63.9.4 and the base change map of Cohomology on Sites, Remark 21.19.3.

Namely, choose a compactification $j : X \to \overline{X}$ over $Y$ and denote $\overline{f} : \overline{X} \to Y$ the structure morphism. Since $Rf_! = R\overline{f}_* \circ j_!$ and $Rf_* = R\overline{f}_* \circ Rj_*$ it suffices to construct a transformation of functors $j_! \to Rj_*$. For this we use the canonical transformation $j_! \to j_*$ of Étale Cohomology, Lemma 59.70.6. We omit the proof that the resulting transformation is independent of the choice of compactification and we omit the proof of the compatibilities (1) and (2).

Here is a manifestly canonical construction of the map . Consider the relative diagonal along with the two projections . Since is separated, . Combining this with the tautological transformation gives the desired morphism

Dear Cop 223, I understand what you are saying, but in the setup as in this chapter, I do not think this "helps".
