The functor of relative effective Cartier divisors #

Let f : X ⟶ S be a morphism of schemes. For a scheme T over S, write X_T = T ×_S X for the base change of X, viewed over T through the first projection. A morphism T' ⟶ T over S induces X_{T'} ⟶ X_T, and pulling back ideal sheaves along it makes T ↦ {ideal sheaves on X_T} a functor (Over S)ᵒᵖ ⥤ Type. The relative effective Cartier divisors on X_T over T form a subfunctor: since the square formed by X_{T'} ⟶ X_T and the two projections is a pullback square, pullback along X_{T'} ⟶ X_T preserves relative effective Cartier divisors (Scheme.IdealSheafData.IsRelativeEffectiveCartier.comap_of_isPullback), with no flatness assumption on T' ⟶ T or on f.

This is the functor Div_{X/S} of relative effective Cartier divisors. For a smooth proper curve over a field, its subfunctor of divisors of degree d is the functor represented by the symmetric power Symᵈ X, and D ↦ 𝒪(D) defines the Abel maps from it to the Picard functor; neither the degree, the representability nor the Abel maps are treated here. The empty divisor is a relative effective Cartier divisor on every base change, so the functor has a distinguished point.

The base change X_T = T ×_S X and the induced morphisms ((Over.pullback f).map φ).left are those used by TauCeti.AlgebraicGeometry.rigidifiedPicardFunctor.
