The relative Picard presheaf and the rigidified Picard functor #
Let f : X ⟶ S be a morphism of schemes. The relative Picard presheaf of f sends a scheme T
over S to the quotient Pic(X_T) / Pic(T) of the Picard group of the base change
X_T = T ×_S X by the line-bundle classes pulled back from T, and a morphism T' ⟶ T over S
to pullback along the induced morphism X_{T'} ⟶ X_T. The relative Picard functor Pic_{X/S}
is its sheafification for the fppf (or étale) topology.
When f has a section x₀, the presheaf T ↦ Pic(X_T) / Pic(T) is already the rigidified Picard
functor: forgetting the rigidification is a natural bijection from the classes of line bundles on
X_T rigidified along the base-changed section x₀_T onto Pic(X_T) / Pic(T). Pointwise this is
a statement about any section s of a morphism p : Y ⟶ T: forgetting the rigidification is
injective on classes rigidified along s, with image the kernel of s^* : Pic(Y) → Pic(T), and
p^* splits s^*, so that this kernel maps isomorphically onto Pic(Y) / p^* Pic(T)
(TauCeti.AlgebraicGeometry.RigidifiedLineBundleClass.mk_toLineBundleClass_bijective). No
hypothesis on f beyond the existence of the section is needed.

Pullback along the morphism X_{T'} ⟶ X_T induced by φ : T' ⟶ T over S carries the
line-bundle classes pulled back from T to line-bundle classes pulled back from T'.
The relative Picard presheaf of a morphism f : X ⟶ S: it sends a scheme T over S to
the quotient Pic(X_T) / Pic(T) of the Picard group of X_T = T ×_S X by the classes pulled back
along the projection X_T ⟶ T, and a morphism over S to pullback along the induced morphism of
base changes.

Instances For
The value of the relative Picard presheaf at T is Pic(X_T) / Pic(T).
The relative Picard presheaf acts on the image of a line-bundle class on X_T by pulling it
back along the induced morphism of base changes.
The rigidified Picard functor is the relative Picard presheaf. For a morphism
f : X ⟶ S with a section x₀, forgetting the rigidification identifies the classes of line
bundles on X_T rigidified along x₀_T with Pic(X_T) / Pic(T), naturally in the scheme T
over S.
