Abstract: Twisting by a G-torsor an object endowed with an action of a group G is a classical tool. For instance one finds in the paragraph 5.3 of the book "cohomologie galoisienne" by Serre, the description of the "op'eration de torsion" in a particular context. The aim of this note is to give a formalization of this twisting operation as general as possible in the algebraic geometric framework and to present a few applications. We will focus in particular to the application to the problem of specialization of covers addressed by P. D`ebes and al. in a series of papers.
