When is a coherent sheaf on an algebraizable space algebraizable?
Let $\mathcal{X}$ denote an algebraizable rigid analytic space over $\text{Spm}(\mathbb{Q}_p)$,
i.e. there exists a finite type $\mathbb{Q}_p$-scheme $X$ such that $\mathcal{X}$ is its rigid ...

GAGA, positive line bundles, Kodaira embedding, and homogeneous coordinate rings
Let $M$ be a compact K"ahler manifold and let $L$ be a positive line bundle over $M$. We know from the Kodaira embedding theorem that from $L^{\otimes k}$ for some $k$ we can construct an ...

The notion of border for (complex and non-archimedean) analytic spaces and schemes
Is a manifold with corner an analytic space (just show that $\left[0, +\infty \right)^{n}$ is an analytic space, which seems obvious but maybe I'm wrong...) EDIT: as noted in the comments some complex ...

Decomposability and analytification of coherent sheaves
Let $X$ be an affine (algebraic) complex variety and $f:Y \to X$ be a finite morphism. Given any coherent sheaf $\mathcal{F}$ on $X$, we denote by $\mathcal{F}^{an}$ the analytification of $\mathcal{F}...

GAGA for vector bundles over Riemann surfaces
Serre’s GAGA theorem gives an equivalence of categories between algebraic and analytic coherent sheaves over a complex projective variety. The proof relies on the finiteness of the cohomologies of ...

GAGA for stacks
I am curious about stacky generalizations of the following GAGA theorem:
If $X, U$ are complex algebraic varieties of finite type, $X$ is proper and $f:X\to U$ is an analytic map then $f$ is ...

Algebrizing analytic quotients of algebraic spaces
Suppose that $Y$ is an algebraic space over $\mathbb{C}$ which is "nice" (say, separated and of finite type). Let $R\subset Y\times Y$ be a closed algebraic subspace which forms a categorical ...

Comparison of algebraic and analytic q-expansion
I would like to check that algebraic and analytic q-expansion of a modular form coincide.
I'm thinking about modular forms as global sections of some sheaf on modular curves. If $X$ is a modular ...

Are complex varieties Kahler? - Algebraic, non-projective complex manifolds
Let $X/\mathbb{C}$ a nonsingular proper variety and $X_{an}$ it's associated analytic space. Is $X_{an}$ necessarily Kahler? Certainly we know this if $X$ is projective.
A complex torus is algebraic ...

What is the intuition behind the proof of the algebraic version of Cartan's theorem A?
I am trying to understand the idea behind the proof of GAGA. A crucial step is the following:
Theorem: Let $X=\mathbb{P}^r_{\mathbb{C}}$ (either as a variety or as an analytic space), and let $\...
