The projective spectrum of a finite module #

The coefficient morphism Proj(Sym M) ⟶ Spec R is proper when M is a finite R-module, even when M is not free or projective. Over a Noetherian coefficient ring, its source is a Noetherian scheme. These are the finiteness properties needed to apply Chevalley's theorem to projective orbit morphisms.

The convention is that M consists of homogeneous linear coordinates. For the space of lines in a finite locally free representation V, use M = V∨.

SymmetricAlgebra.projToSpec is the structural morphism over R. Its properness and quasi-compactness instances require only Module.Finite R M; its Noetherianity instance also requires IsNoetherianRing R. The chart formula describes this morphism on the standard affine charts. Its source is Jacobson whenever Spec R is Jacobson.

    On a standard affine chart, the coefficient morphism comes from the inclusion of scalars into the homogeneous localization.

    The projective spectrum of a finite module is proper over the coefficient ring. Freeness and projectivity are not required.

    The projective spectrum of a finite module is quasi-compact, over any coefficient ring.

    Over a Noetherian ring, the projective spectrum of a finite module is Noetherian.

    The projective spectrum of a finite module over a Jacobson spectrum is Jacobson.
