Algebraic cycles, Chow spaces and Hilbert-Chow morphisms
In the sequel, let $S$ be a scheme, and $X$ a locally of finite type algebraic space over $S$.
In his thesis ([R1-R4]), David Rydh introduces, among several others, the notion of relative cycles on $...

Why is Maps(X,Y) an open subfunctor of Hilb(X x Y)?
Let $X$ and $Y$ be projective schemes. Then we can define the mapping scheme between them, $\rm{Maps}(X,Y)$ as follows:
To any map $f:X\rightarrow Y$ we consider the graph $\Gamma_f$ as a closed ...

Relationship between Hilbert schemes and deformation spaces
Hi, I'm just starting to learn about deformation theory (via Hartshorne's Deformation theory, as well as Fantechi's section of FGA explained), and I feel like I'm confused about fundamental concepts. ...

Open subfunctor of Quot Functor induced by open immersion
Let $f: X \rightarrow S$ be a morphism of noetherian schemes and $\mathfrak{Q}uot_{\mathcal{E}/X/S}$ be the functor parametrizing families of quotients of $\mathcal{E}$ in the category of locally ...

Construct morphisms of schemes on level of associated functors
I have a general question about techniques used in @Emerton's proof, sketched below, in the answer to $\mathbb{P}^n$ is simply connected.
Given a finite étale map $\pi: Y \to \mathbb P^n$ (we regard ...

Finding a cover of the Hilbert functor, that corresponds to a cover of the Grassmannian
Let $\mathrm{Grass}_{k+1,n+1}:\mathrm{Sch}^{\circ}\rightarrow\mathrm{Set}$ be the Grassmann functor, which maps a scheme $S$ to the set:
$$\left\{\mathscr{U}\subseteq\mathscr{O}_S^{n+1}:\,\,\mathscr{...

When is the Hom-scheme connected?
Suppose that $A$ and $B$ are two algebras finite over a field $K$ (which may be assumed to be separably closed, if that helps), then we know that the functor $\mathrm{Hom}_K(\mathrm{Spec}(A),\mathrm{...

Is Mumford's statement about the representability of some functor wrong?
I am having trouble proving a result in Mumfords book 'Lectures on Curves on an Algebraic surface.
It is a statement about the representability of some functor. It is stated on page 108 and says the ...
