Proxy smallness meets $t$-structures

Abstract

We introduce a notion of proxy smallness for $t$-structures on triangulated categories associated to a Noetherian scheme. Specifically, the theory is developed in the presence of tensor actions. Consequently, our results yield a new characterization of schemes that are locally complete intersections in terms of $t$-structures, as well as a topological classification of preaisles on the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves.
