Further remarks on derived categories of algebraic stacks

Abstract: Let $X$ be an algebraic stack with quasi-affine diagonal of finite type over a field $k$ of characteristic $0$. We extend the well-known equivalence $\mathsf{D}^+(\mathsf{QCoh}(X)) \simeq \mathsf{D}{\mathrm{qc}}^+(X)$ to unbounded derived categories. We also prove that if $X$ is smooth over $k$, then $\mathsf{D}{\mathrm{qc}}(X)$ is compactly generated. We accomplish the former using the descendable algebras of Mathew. We also establish related results in positive and mixed characteristics.
