5.5. Local Properties of Maps

Let A be a strict coherent analyitc geometires. 

Proposition 5.5.1. (a) Suppose W Í X is a proper strong subobject. There is a prime V of X such that the localization XV is not contained in W
(b} Let L(X) be the coproducts of all localization lP: XP ® X and let e: L(X) ® X be the map induced by lP. Then e is epic. 

Proof. Since any proper strong subobject is contained in a proper regular subobject, and any proper regular subobject is an intersection of proper finitely cogenerated regular subobjects by (4.1.3), it suffices to prove the assertion for a proper finitely cogenerated regular subobject W. First we note that there is a prime V of X such that any analytic neighborhood U of V is not contained in W. Otherwise W contains an analytic cover {Ui} of X, which is not the case as the category is strict, therefore X is the colimit of {Ui Ç Uj}, and this only happens if X = W. Thus let V be such a prime. The localization XV of X at V is the cofiltered limit of all the analytic neighborhoods of V . Assume XV is contained in W. Suppose W is the equalizer of a pair (r1, r2): X ® T of maps with T finitely copresentable. There is an open neighborhood u: U ® X of V such that r1v = r2°v (see the proof of (4.1.4)). Then V Í U which contradicts to the choice of V. This shows that XV is not contained in W
(b) e does not factors through any proper strong subobject by (a), thus is epic. n 

Proposition 5.5.2. An object is reduced iff each of its localization is reduced. 

Proof. Suppose X is reduced. By (3.1.3.e) analytic subobjects of X are reduced. Any localization of X is a cofiltered limit of analytic subobjects of X, thus is reduced by (5.1.5.b). 
Conversely, assume each localization is reduced. Consider a proper strong subobject W of X. By (5.5.1) there is a localization L of X which is not contained in W, i.e. L Ç W is a proper strong subobject of L. As L is reduced, L Ç W is not unipotent. This implies that W is not unipotent as the pullback of any unipotent map is unipotent. Thus X is reduced by (3.1.2.a). n 

Proposition 5.5.3. A map f: Y ® X is epic iff its pullback along any localization of X is so. 

Proof. The pullback of any epi along a localization is epic as any localization is coflat. 
Conversely assume f is not epic. Then f factors through a proper regular subobject v: V ® X in a map g: Y ® V. According to (5.5.1.a) there is a localization l: L ® X which does not factor through V. Let (u: L Ç V ® L, w: L Ç V ® V) be the pullback of (v, l). Then u: L Ç V ® L is a proper strong subobject of L. Let m: M ® L Ç V be the pullback of g along w. Then u°m is the pullback of f = v°g. Since u°m factors through the proper strong subobject L Ç V of L, it is not epi.

Proposition 5.5.4. Suppose f: Y ® X is a mono. 
(a) If the residue maps of f are isomorphisms, then Spec(f) is injective. 
(b) If f is a local isomorphism then Spec(f) is injective. 

Proof. (a) Suppose P Î Spec(Y) and Q Î Spec(Y) are two primes over the same O Î Spec(X). Then their  residues k(P) and k(Q) are isomorphic to the residue k(O) of O by assumption. Thus there are isomorphisms u: k(P) ® k(O) and v: k(Q) ® k(O). Let s (resp. t) be the compositions of u-1: k(O) ® k(P) (resp. v-1: k(O) ® k(Q)) with the inclusions k(P) ® Y (resp. k(Q) ® Y ). Then f°s = f°t is the inclusion k(O) ® X. Since f is a mono, we have s = t. So P = Q. This shows that Spec(f) is injective. 
(b) follows from (a) as the residue maps of a local isomorphism are isomrophisms. n 

Proposition 5.5.5. Suppose f: Y ® X is a  map. 
(a) If f is unipotent then Spec(f) is surjective. 
(b) If f is coflat and Spec(f) is surjective then it is unipotent. 
(c) Assume f is coflat and X is local. Then f is unipotent iff the simple prime of X is contained in the image of Spec(f). 

Proof. (a) If Spec(f) is not surjective we can find a residue P ® X which does not factors through f, then P ® X is disjoint with f, thus f is not unipotent. 
(b) We may assume that f is non-initial. Consider a non-initial map t: T ® X. Let p: P ® X be the generic residue of a prime in the image of Spec(t). Let u: F ® P be the pullback of f along p, and let v: G ® P be the pullback of t along p. Then F and G are not initial as P is in the image of Spec(f) and Spec(t). Since u as the pullback of a coflat map is coflat, and v is epic as a non-initial map to a simple object, the fibre product W of u and v is epic over F, thus is non-initial. The following commutative diagram implies that t and f are not disjoint, thus f is unipotent. 

(c) The condition is clearly necessary by (a). Conversely assume the simple prime of X is contained in the image of Spec(f). By (5.2.3.b) the image of Spec(f) is closed under generalization. Thus Spec(f) is surjective, which implies that f is unipotent by (b). n 

Proposition 5.5.6. Any unipotent local isomorphic mono f: Y ® X is an isomorphism. 

Proof. First note that Spec(f) is bijective by (5.5.4) and (5.5.5). Let Z be the coproducts of all localization lP: YP ® Y and let z: Z ® Y be the map induced by lP, then z is an epi by (5.5.1.b). Since f is a local isomorphism and Spec(f) is bijective, Z is also naturally the coproducts of localizations of X with f°z: Z ® X as the canonical map. Thus f°z is epic by (5.5.1.b), which implies that f is epic. Since finitely copresentable objects form a strong generating set of A, to see that f is an isomorphism, it suffices to prove that any map t: Y ® C from Y to a finitely copresentable object C factors through f. Suppose p: YP ® Y is a localization of Y at a prime P. Since f is a local isomorphism, f°p: YP ® X is the localization of X at f+1(P). Thus YP is the cofiltered limit of a collection of analytic neighborhoods Vi of f+1(P) with the maps (f°p)s: YP ® Vi. Since C is finitely copresentable, there exists an analytic neighborhood Vs of f+1(P) and a map gs: Vs ® C such that ts° ps = gs° fs° ps, where ts: f-1(Vs) ® C, ps: YP ® f-1(Vs) and fs: f-1(Vs) ® Vs are the induced maps. Since C is finitely copresentable and YP is the filtered limits of open analytic neighborhood of P, and f-1(Vs) is one of such analytic neighborhood, there is a small analytic neighborhood UP contained in f-1(Vs) such that the restrictions of ts and gs° fs on UP are the same, denoted this restriction by tP . We have proved that for any prime P we can find a small open neighborhood UP of P such that the restriction of t on UP can be factored through the restriction of f on UP. Since the analytic category is strict, these factorization can be glue together to obtain a global factorization for t by f. n 

Proposition 5.5.7. A mono is a local isomorphism iff it is a fraction. 

Proof. Suppose u: U ® X is a local isomorphic mono. Any unipotent pullback of u is a unipotent local isomorphic, therefore is an isomorphism by (5.5.6). Thus u is normal. So we only need to prove that u is coflat. Since the class of local isomorphisms is closed under pullback, it suffices to prove that u is precoflat. Suppose t: T ® X is an epi and r: Z ® U, s: Z ® T is the pullback of f and t. For any localization g: G ® U the map r-1(U) ® U is epic because it is the pullback of the epic map t along the localization u°g: G ® X. This shows that if r factors through a strong mono w: W Í U, then W contains all the localization of U. This is only possible if W = U by (5.5.1.a). This shows that r is epic, which means that  u is precoflat as desired. The other direction has been proved in (5.3.3). n
