Frobenius upper shriek/flat of a dualizing complex

Let $X$ be a separated connected scheme of characteristic $p > 0$. I am going to assume that $F : X \to X$ (the absolute Frobenius) is a finite map. This condition is called being $F$-finite. ...

Explicit computations of Serre duality for elliptic curves

I have an elliptic curve $E$ defined over a ring $R$, I want to compute the pairing $$ H^1(E,\mathcal{O}_E)\times H^0(E, \Omega_E^1){\rightarrow}R. $$ Clearly we have that $H^0(E, \Omega_E^1)=R \...

Is there a direct way to compute the higher derived image sheaves of a family of $\mathbb{P}^n$s?

Let $V\rightarrow Y$ be a vector bundle of rank $n+1$ over $Y$, with $Y$ reasonably nice (I care about the case of smooth, irreducible affine). Let $X=\mathbb{P}(V)$ be the projectivization of $V$, so ...

Serre functors for non-proper categories

One usually defines a Serre functor to be a functor on a $k$-linear category $\mathcal{C}$ which has finite dimensional $Hom$s over $k$. In that case, the standard definition is that a Serre functor $...

Poincare duality in families of smooth, projective curves

Let $f:\mathcal{C} \to \Delta^*$ be a family of smooth, projective curves over a punctured disc. Denote by $\mathbb{H}^1:=R^1f_*\mathbb{Z}$ the associated local system, such that for every $t \in \...

Dual of a weighted projective space

I have a fairly good understanding of what the dual of a projective space is. I am currently interested in weighted projective space but I haven't found anything on the construction of its dual space ...

Is the Serre dualizing complex local in the analytic topology?

There is a Serre dualizing complex $S_X\in D^b Coh(X)$ for any scheme $X$ of finite type. For proper schemes, it is characterized as the sheaf defining the right adjoint to derived global sections, ...

How is the restriction of the dualizing sheaf to an irreducible component related to the dualizing sheaf of the component?

$\DeclareMathOperator{\Spec}{Spec} \DeclareMathOperator{\hom}{\mathcal{Hom}} \DeclareMathOperator{\ox}{\mathcal{O}_X}$Let $f:X \to Y$ be a proper morphism. In section 6.4. of Liu's book he introduces ...

Does GKZ's reflexivity theorem imply the Plucker formula?

Let $S\subset\mathbb{P}^n$, Gelfand-Kapranov-Zelevinsky defined its dual variety $S^\vee\subset\mathbb{P}^{n^\ast}$. In this paper (http://arxiv.org/pdf/math/0111179v1.pdf), the author obtained the ...

Open nature of $\mathcal{H}om$ functor/upper semi-continuity of $\operatorname{Ext}^i$

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field, $T$ a $k$-scheme (can assume connected) and $X$ a projective variety over $k$. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a coherent (pure) sheaf on $X \times_k T$ flat over $T$. ...

Local freeness of dualizing sheaf

I am reading the dualizing sheaf and duality theorems from Hartshorne’s algebraic geometry book. I am wondering about the following. When does the dualizing sheaf of a projective scheme is an locally ...

Dual varieties and nodal sections

Let $X$ be a(n even dimensional) smooth complex projective variety in $\mathbb{P}^N$, and let $X^{\vee}$ be its dual variety; up to an higher degree Veronese embedding of $X$, I assume that $X^{\vee}$ ...
