Derived functors are compatible with shifts

Lemma 13.14.5. Assumptions and notation as in Situation 13.14.1. Let $X$ be an object of $\mathcal{D}$ and $n \in \mathbf{Z}$.

  1. $RF$ is defined at $X$ if and only if it is defined at $X[n]$. In this case there is a canonical isomorphism $RF(X)[n]= RF(X[n])$ between values.

  2. $LF$ is defined at $X$ if and only if it is defined at $X[n]$. In this case there is a canonical isomorphism $LF(X)[n] \to LF(X[n])$ between values.

Proof. Omitted. $\square$

There is a slight asymmetry between the statement of (1) and (2). The former uses and the latter .

A proof of (1):

We have where all these colimits exist in if and only if one of them does, and where the last isomorphism comes from application of Categories, Lemma 4.17.2 to the cofinal functor (well-defined thanks to MS5; it is cofinal for it is an equivalence). The first term of these chain of isos is , whereas the last one is .
