The sheaf of a principal Weil divisor is a line bundle #

Let X be a locally Noetherian integral scheme of dimension at most one whose codimension-one local rings are discrete valuation rings. This file identifies the sheaf 𝒪_X(0) of the zero divisor with the structure sheaf. When X is moreover Noetherian, which is the hypothesis under which the divisor div g of a rational function is available, it deduces that 𝒪_X(D) is an invertible sheaf whenever D is the divisor of a nonzero rational function.

Main declarations #

Together with the already available fact that linearly equivalent divisors have isomorphic sheaves, this is the statement that the map D ↦ 𝒪_X(D) sends the trivial divisor class to the trivial line bundle.

The identification 𝒪_X(0) = 𝒪_X follows Hartshorne, Algebraic Geometry, Proposition II.6.11. The construction reuses the submodule-of-a-sheaf API and the multiplication isomorphisms of TauCeti/AlgebraicGeometry/WeilDivisor/Scheme/Sheaf.lean, and Mathlib's fully faithful forgetful functor from 𝒪_X-modules to presheaves of abelian groups.

The sections of 𝒪_X(0) are the regular functions. On a locally Noetherian scheme whose codimension-one local rings are discrete valuation rings, let U be an open subset of dimension at most one. A rational function with no poles on U is regular on U, so the sections of the sheaf of the zero divisor over U are exactly the images of the sections of 𝒪_X.

The sheaf of the zero divisor is the structure sheaf. The canonical factorization of 𝒪_X ⟶ 𝒦_X through 𝒪_X(0) is an isomorphism: it is injective because 𝒪_X ⟶ 𝒦_X is, and surjective because a rational function without poles is regular.

The sheaf of the zero divisor is an invertible sheaf, X being locally Noetherian of dimension at most one.

The sheaf of a principal divisor is trivial. On a Noetherian scheme of dimension at most one, multiplication by g identifies 𝒪_X(div g) with 𝒪_X(0), which is the structure sheaf.

Instances For

    The sheaf of a principal Weil divisor is a line bundle. On a Noetherian integral scheme of dimension at most one whose codimension-one local rings are discrete valuation rings, this is the case of the divisor-to-line-bundle dictionary in which the divisor is globally the divisor of a rational function; it sends the trivial divisor class to the trivial line bundle.
