Apr 13, 2019 at 19:25 comment added bfhaha Why "This shows that the associated sheaf of $\mathscr{O}'$ is indeed $\mathscr{O}_{\text{Spec }(A)}$"? I think it suffices to show that $\mathscr{O}'_{\mathfrak{p}}=\varinjlim\limits_{\mathfrak{p}\in U}\mathscr{O}'(U)=\varinjlim\limits_{f\in A\backslash \mathfrak{p}}\mathscr{O}'(X_f)=\varinjlim\limits_{f\in A\backslash \mathfrak{p}}A_f=A_{\mathfrak{p}}$. But I cannot prove $\varinjlim\limits_{\mathfrak{p}\in U}\mathscr{O}'(U)=\varinjlim\limits_{f\in A\backslash \mathfrak{p}}\mathscr{O}'(X_f)$. Could anyone help me? Thx!
Apr 13, 2019 at 6:13 comment added bfhaha Interesting! Hartshorne verified (or expected readers to verify) $\mathscr{O}_{\text{Spec }A}$ is a sheaf directly. Then proved that $\mathscr{O}(D(f))\cong A_f$. You did that in a reverse way.
Apr 13, 2019 at 6:07 comment added bfhaha $U=\text{Spec }(A_f)$ means the set of all prime ideals in $A$ which are correspondent with the prime ideals in $A_f$. That is, the set of all prime ideals in $A$ which are disjoint $\{1, f, f^2, ...\}$.
May 13, 2017 at 21:45 comment added Ingo Blechschmidt The mapping $U \mapsto S_U$ is a sheaf on $\operatorname{Spec}(A)$, in fact a subsheaf of the constant sheaf $\underline{A}$. It is also called the "universal filter" or "generic filter" of $A$. The structure sheaf can then simply be constructed as the localization $\underline{A}[S^{-1}]$ (performed in the internal language of the topos of sheaves over $\operatorname{Spec}(A)$).
