The relative spectrum of a symmetric algebra #
For a quasicoherent sheaf F on a scheme X, the relative spectrum Spec_X (Sym F) of its
symmetric algebra is the scheme over X that represents 𝒪-linear functionals on F
(Stacks Project, Tag 01M1, and EGA II, §1.7). For a scheme q : T ⟶ X, morphisms
T ⟶ Spec_X (Sym F) over X correspond to
- morphisms of
𝒪_X-modulesF ⟶ q_* 𝒪_T(relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraHomEquiv), naturally inFand inT(relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraHomIso); and - morphisms of
𝒪_T-modulesq^* F ⟶ 𝒪_T(relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraPullbackHomEquiv), naturally inF, and inTthrough pullback of linear functionals.
The first is the universal property of relative Spec, relativeSpecHomIso, followed by the
universal property of the symmetric algebra as the free commutative algebra,
symmetricAlgebraHomEquiv; the second follows from the first by the adjunction between pullback
and pushforward of modules. This is the contravariant linear scheme 𝕍(F) of a quasicoherent
sheaf; for a finite locally free E, the total space of the vector bundle E is the relative
spectrum of the symmetric algebra of the dual of E.
The relative spectrum of a symmetric algebra commutes with base change: for f : Y ⟶ X,
Spec_Y (Sym (f^* F)) is the fibre product Y ×_X Spec_X (Sym F), naturally in F
(relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraBaseChangeIso). This is base change of relative Spec,
relativeSpecBaseChangeIso, applied to the identification f^* (Sym F) ≅ Sym (f^* F)
(pullbackSymmetricAlgebraIso). On points, the projection
Spec_Y (Sym (f^* F)) ⟶ Spec_X (Sym F) (relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraPullbackFst) sends a point
over q : T ⟶ Y with linear functional q^* f^* F ⟶ 𝒪_T to the point over q ≫ f with the same
functional on (q ≫ f)^* F ≅ q^* f^* F
(relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraPullbackHomEquiv_map_comp_relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraPullbackFst).

The universal property of the relative spectrum of a symmetric algebra. For a
quasicoherent sheaf F on X and a scheme q : T ⟶ X over X, morphisms
T ⟶ Spec_X (Sym F) over X correspond to morphisms of 𝒪_X-modules F ⟶ q_* 𝒪_T.
Instances For
The module map F ⟶ q_* 𝒪_T of a morphism t : T ⟶ Spec_X (Sym F) over X is the
restriction to F of its pullback of regular functions Sym F ⟶ q_* 𝒪_T.
The algebra map Sym F ⟶ q_* 𝒪_T of a point t : T ⟶ Spec_X (Sym F) over X, by which
regular functions are pulled back along t, is the algebra map extending the module map
F ⟶ q_* 𝒪_T of t.
The morphism over X of a module map φ : F ⟶ q_* 𝒪_T is the relative-spectrum lift of
the algebra map Sym F ⟶ q_* 𝒪_T extending φ.
The bijection relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraHomEquiv is natural in the scheme over X:
composing with g : T' ⟶ T over X corresponds to composing the module map F ⟶ q_* 𝒪_T with
pullback of regular functions along g.
The bijection relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraHomEquiv is natural in the quasicoherent sheaf:
composing with the relative-spectrum map of Sym a for a : F' ⟶ F corresponds to
precomposing the module map with a.
The functor-of-points universal property of Spec_X (Sym F), natural in the
quasicoherent sheaf F and in the scheme T over X: morphisms T ⟶ Spec_X (Sym F) over X
correspond to morphisms of 𝒪_X-modules F ⟶ q_* 𝒪_T. Its components are
relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraHomEquiv.
Instances For
The components of relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraHomIso are
relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraHomEquiv.
The inverse components of relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraHomIso are the inverse of
relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraHomEquiv.
Spec_X (Sym F) represents linear functionals. For a quasicoherent sheaf F on X and a
scheme q : T ⟶ X over X, morphisms T ⟶ Spec_X (Sym F) over X correspond to morphisms of
𝒪_T-modules q^* F ⟶ 𝒪_T. It is relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraHomEquiv followed by the
adjunction between pullback and pushforward of modules.
Instances For
The linear functional q^* F ⟶ 𝒪_T of a morphism T ⟶ Spec_X (Sym F) over X is the
transpose of its module map F ⟶ q_* 𝒪_T.
The morphism over X of a linear functional q^* F ⟶ 𝒪_T is the morphism of its transpose
F ⟶ q_* 𝒪_T.
The linear-functional form of the universal property is natural in the quasicoherent sheaf:
composing with the relative-spectrum map of Sym a for a : F' ⟶ F corresponds to
precomposing the linear functional with q^* a.
The linear-functional form of the universal property is natural in the scheme over X:
composing with g : T' ⟶ T over X corresponds to pulling the linear functional
q^* F ⟶ 𝒪_T back along g, through the identifications q'^* F ≅ g^* q^* F (the composition
isomorphism of pullback, as q' = g ≫ q) and g^* 𝒪_T ≅ 𝒪_{T'}.
Base change of the relative spectrum of a symmetric algebra. For a morphism of schemes
f : Y ⟶ X and a quasicoherent sheaf F on X, the relative spectrum Spec_Y (Sym (f^* F))
is the base change Y ×_X Spec_X (Sym F), as affine schemes over Y and naturally in F. It is
relative Spec of the identification f^* (Sym F) ≅ Sym (f^* F) (pullbackSymmetricAlgebraIso),
followed by the base-change isomorphism relativeSpecBaseChangeIso of relative Spec.
Instances For
The component of relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraBaseChangeIso at F is relative Spec of
pullbackSymmetricAlgebraIso, followed by the component of relativeSpecBaseChangeIso at
Sym F.
The inverse component of relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraBaseChangeIso at F is the inverse
component of relativeSpecBaseChangeIso at Sym F, followed by relative Spec of the inverse of
pullbackSymmetricAlgebraIso.
The projection Spec_Y (Sym (f^* F)) ⟶ Spec_X (Sym F) from the base change, as a morphism of
schemes over X: relative Spec of pullbackSymmetricAlgebraIso, followed by the projection
relativeSpecPullbackFst of base change of relative Spec. Under
relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraBaseChangeIso it is the first projection of the fibre product
Y ×_X Spec_X (Sym F) (relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraBaseChangeIso_hom_app_left_fst).
Instances For
The underlying morphism of relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraPullbackFst is relative Spec of
pullbackSymmetricAlgebraIso followed by relativeSpecPullbackFst.
The isomorphism relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraBaseChangeIso followed by the first projection of
the fibre product Y ×_X Spec_X (Sym F) is the projection
relativeSpecSymmetricAlgebraPullbackFst.
Base change of Spec_X (Sym F) on points, as module maps. For a scheme q : T ⟶ Y over
Y and a morphism t : T ⟶ Spec_Y (Sym (f^* F)) over Y, the module map F ⟶ (q ≫ f)_* 𝒪_T of
the composite of t with the projection to Spec_X (Sym F) is the transpose along f of the
module map f^* F ⟶ q_* 𝒪_T of t, followed by the identification f_* q_* ≅ (q ≫ f)_*.
Base change of Spec_X (Sym F) on points, as linear functionals. For a scheme
q : T ⟶ Y over Y and a morphism t : T ⟶ Spec_Y (Sym (f^* F)) over Y, the linear functional
(q ≫ f)^* F ⟶ 𝒪_T of the composite of t with the projection to Spec_X (Sym F) is the linear
functional q^* f^* F ⟶ 𝒪_T of t, through the composition isomorphism of pullback.
