Effectivity under the Weil–Cartier correspondence #
On a Noetherian integral scheme of dimension at most one, regular in codimension one, the Cartier
divisor associated with a Weil divisor is effective exactly when the Weil divisor has nonnegative
coefficients. The comparison uses the common sheaf of rational sections: effectivity says that the
constant rational section 1 belongs to 𝒪_X(D).
The result identifies the effective submonoids of Weil and Cartier divisors. It allows effective divisors used in linear systems and Abel maps to be viewed as effective Cartier divisors.
The comparison uses Scheme.CartierDivisor.isEffective_iff_one_mem_sections and
Scheme.CartierDivisor.sections_eq_toWeilDivisor; the effective monoid equivalence is the
restriction of SchemeWeilDivisor.equivCartierDivisor.
