Are there any results in number theory or algebraic geometry whose statement does not involve either higher categories or any derived structures but whose most natural (known) proof uses derived $n$-Artin stacks for $n>1$? We are using Toen--Vezzosi terminology.

    If derived categories are going to count, then this question suggests an answer (and I'm sure there are others in the same vein): mathoverflow.net/questions/321852/… . However, I would have thought this is not what you had in mind. It is certainly not what I would call derived geometry. Also, people usually study derived categories of coherent sheaves as a triangulated category, i.e. forgetting the higher structure to some extent.

    To a certain extent, all derived geometry is necessarily "higher'", for example in the sense that the functor of points of a derived scheme must take values in the $infty$-category of spaces. Perhaps you want "derived" to mean only using derived schemes as opposed to derived stacks, and "higher" to refer to (not necessarily derived) $infty$-stacks?

Here is an example from Bhargav Bhatt's talk "Using DAG" at MSRI last week. Needless to say, any mistakes are mine.



Theorem. Let $X$ be a coherent (quasi-compact and quasi-separated) scheme, let $A$ be a ring complete with respect to an ideal $Isubseteq A$. Then
$$ X(A) to varprojlim_n X(A/I^n+1) $$
is bijective.



Before going into the proof, let us consider the case $X$ is affine. Then
$$
X(A) = rm Hom(Gamma(X, mathcalO_X), A) = varprojlim_n rm Hom(Gamma(X, mathcalO_X), A/I^n+1) = varprojlim_n X(A/I^n+1) . $$



The idea for the general (coherent) case is to replace $Gamma(X, mathcalO_X)$ with $rm Perf(X)$, the category of perfect complexes on $X$.



Slogan. Affine schemes have "enough functions". Coherent schemes have "enough vector bundles (perfect complexes)".



The second idea may be due to Thomason.



More precisely, we have:



Proposition. Let $X$ and $Y$ be schemes.



(a) If $X$ is affine, then
$$ rm Hom(Y, X) to rm Hom(Gamma(X, mathcalO_X), Gamma(Y, mathcalO_Y)) $$
is bijective.



(b) If $X$ is coherent, then
$$ rm Hom(Y, X) to rm Hom(rm Perf(X), rm Perf(Y)) $$
is an equivalence.



We must specify what (b) means (here is where DAG enters the picture). We consider $rm Perf(X)$ as the symmetric monoidal $infty$-category of perfect complexes on $X$ (complexes locally quasi-isomorphic to a bounded complex of locally free sheaves of finite rank). The $rm Hom$ on the right means the $infty$-groupoid (space) exact $otimes$-functors. So in particular (b) implies that this space is discrete. The map in (b) sends $f$ to $f^*$, the pull-back functor.



"Proof" of Theorem. We repeat the proof of the affine case, replacing rings with categories of perfect complexes:
$$
X(A) = rm Hom(rm Perf(X), rm Perf(A)) = varprojlim_n rm Hom(rm Perf(X), rm Perf(A/I^n+1)) = varprojlim_n X(A/I^n+1) . $$

Unlike in the affine case, the middle equality needs some justification, which I am not ready to give.



End remarks.



(1) I think Bhargav mentioned that an idea due to Gabber allows one to get rid of the assumption that $X$ is coherent in the Theorem.



(2) He also said that the above proof is the only one he is aware of.



(3) Reference for the above (thanks to the user crystalline):

The derived moduli stack of perfect complexes $RPerf$ is a derived Artin stack which admits a filtration by open sub stacks $RPerf^[a,b]$. The latter is a derived $(b-a+1)$-Artin stack. See:




Moduli of objects in dg-categories. Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure, Serie 4, Volume 40 (2007) no. 3, pp. 387-444. doi : 10.1016/j.ansens.2007.05.001. http://www.numdam.org/item/ASENS_2007_4_40_3_387_0/




This derived stack plays a critical role in the recently hot topic of shifted symplectic structures and shifted deformation quantization, see:




Pantev, T., Toën, B., Vaquié, M. et al. Publ.math.IHES (2013) 117: 271. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10240-013-0054-1

Here is an example from Bhargav Bhatt's talk "Using DAG" at MSRI last week. Needless to say, any mistakes are mine.



Theorem. Let $X$ be a coherent (quasi-compact and quasi-separated) scheme, let $A$ be a ring complete with respect to an ideal $Isubseteq A$. Then
$$ X(A) to varprojlim_n X(A/I^n+1) $$
is bijective.



Before going into the proof, let us consider the case $X$ is affine. Then
$$
X(A) = rm Hom(Gamma(X, mathcalO_X), A) = varprojlim_n rm Hom(Gamma(X, mathcalO_X), A/I^n+1) = varprojlim_n X(A/I^n+1) . $$



The idea for the general (coherent) case is to replace $Gamma(X, mathcalO_X)$ with $rm Perf(X)$, the category of perfect complexes on $X$.



Slogan. Affine schemes have "enough functions". Coherent schemes have "enough vector bundles (perfect complexes)".



The second idea may be due to Thomason.



More precisely, we have:



Proposition. Let $X$ and $Y$ be schemes.



(a) If $X$ is affine, then
$$ rm Hom(Y, X) to rm Hom(Gamma(X, mathcalO_X), Gamma(Y, mathcalO_Y)) $$
is bijective.



(b) If $X$ is coherent, then
$$ rm Hom(Y, X) to rm Hom(rm Perf(X), rm Perf(Y)) $$
is an equivalence.



We must specify what (b) means (here is where DAG enters the picture). We consider $rm Perf(X)$ as the symmetric monoidal $infty$-category of perfect complexes on $X$ (complexes locally quasi-isomorphic to a bounded complex of locally free sheaves of finite rank). The $rm Hom$ on the right means the $infty$-groupoid (space) exact $otimes$-functors. So in particular (b) implies that this space is discrete. The map in (b) sends $f$ to $f^*$, the pull-back functor.



"Proof" of Theorem. We repeat the proof of the affine case, replacing rings with categories of perfect complexes:
$$
X(A) = rm Hom(rm Perf(X), rm Perf(A)) = varprojlim_n rm Hom(rm Perf(X), rm Perf(A/I^n+1)) = varprojlim_n X(A/I^n+1) . $$

Unlike in the affine case, the middle equality needs some justification, which I am not ready to give.



End remarks.

    Thank you! I thought looking at $X$ through the symmetric monoidal $infty$-category $rm Perf(X)$ counts as a use of DAG, though indeed, derived schemes do not make an appearance.

The derived moduli stack of perfect complexes $RPerf$ is a derived Artin stack which admits a filtration by open sub stacks $RPerf^[a,b]$. The latter is a derived $(b-a+1)$-Artin stack. See:




Moduli of objects in dg-categories. Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure, Serie 4, Volume 40 (2007) no. 3, pp. 387-444. doi : 10.1016/j.ansens.2007.05.001. http://www.numdam.org/item/ASENS_2007_4_40_3_387_0/




This derived stack plays a critical role in the recently hot topic of shifted symplectic structures and shifted deformation quantization, see:




Pantev, T., Toën, B., Vaquié, M. et al. Publ.math.IHES (2013) 117: 271. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10240-013-0054-1
