Every line bundle on a curve is the sheaf of a Weil divisor #

Let X be a Noetherian integral scheme of dimension at most one whose codimension-one local rings are discrete valuation rings. This file proves that every line bundle L on X is isomorphic to the sheaf π’ͺ_X(D) of a Weil divisor D, so that D ↦ π’ͺ_X(D) identifies the divisor class group with the isomorphism classes of line bundles: Cl(X) β‰… Pic(X).

The divisor is read off from the rational embedding of L. A rank-one trivialization of L on a dense open subset realizes L inside the sheaf 𝒦_X of rational functions (Scheme.Modules.rationalTrivializationHom), and over the domain V of any local rank-one trivialization the image consists of the regular multiples of one nonzero rational function f_V. The classes of the f_V⁻¹ glue to a Cartier divisor (Scheme.Modules.exists_cartierDivisor_restrict_eq), whose Weil divisor D has coefficient -ord_y f_V at each codimension-one point y ∈ V. A rational function g then lies in the image of L over an open subset of V exactly when g / f_V has no poles there, which by the algebraic Hartogs' principle is the order bound defining π’ͺ_X(D).

The Weil divisor of a rationally trivialized line bundle. On a Noetherian integral scheme, a line bundle M with a chosen rank-one trivialization on a dense open subset has a Weil divisor whose coefficient at every codimension-one point y is minus the order at y of the rational function of the basis section of any rank-one trivialization defined near y.

If the coefficients of D are minus the orders of the local basis sections of M, then the rational function of every section of M satisfies the order bound imposed by D.

If the coefficients of D are minus the orders of the local basis sections of M, then every section of π’ͺ_X(D) is the rational function of a section of M. Locally the quotient by a basis section has no poles, hence is regular by the algebraic Hartogs' principle, and the local preimages glue because M embeds into the rational functions.

A line bundle is the sheaf of its divisor. If the coefficients of D are minus the orders of the local basis sections of the line bundle M, then the rational embedding of M factors through an isomorphism M β‰… π’ͺ_X(D).

    Every line bundle on a curve is the sheaf of a Weil divisor. On a Noetherian integral scheme of dimension at most one whose codimension-one local rings are discrete valuation rings, every invertible sheaf is isomorphic to π’ͺ_X(D) for some Weil divisor D.

    Every line-bundle class on such a curve is the class of π’ͺ_X(D) for a Weil divisor D.
