L.c.i locus of Hilbert scheme of points on singular varieties

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety over $\mathbb{C}$. What can we say about the l.c.i. locus of $\text{Hilb}^n(X)$? When $X$ is smooth, it is well-known that the l.c.i. locus of $\text{Hilb}^n(X)$ is ...

Symmetric 0-dimensional schemes with generic Hilbert function and Grassmannians

I've came across this problem while thinking about some properties of fat schemes. Let me give you an explicit (motivating) example: We have $S=\mathbb{C}[x,y,z]$, the coordinate ring of $\mathbb{P}^2$...

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 ...

Connectedness of Quot schemes

Let $X$ be a connected projective scheme over $\mathbb{C}$ and $E$ a coherent sheaf on $X$. Consider the Quot scheme $\operatorname{Quot}_X(E,P)$ of quotients of $E$ of fixed Hilbert polynomial $P$. ...

When Hom scheme has projective components?

The Hom scheme of two projective varieties over some field is constructed as an open subfunctor of the Hilbert scheme of the product of the two schemes by Grothendieck. So it is a countable union of ...

The weight of a weighted filtration is given (for large $m$) by a polynomial

Let $I$ be an homogeneous ideal of $k[x_0, \dots, x_n]$. Suppose to give integral weights $\lambda_0, \dots, \lambda_n$ to $x_0, \dots, x_n$. We assign a weight to every homogeneous polynomial of ...

On construction of Hilbert and Quot schemes

I have some questions regarding the strategy of the proof of the existence of Hilbert and Quot schemes (I will focus on the latter since it's more general), as in the book Fundamental Algebraic ...

On non-representability of certain hom schemes

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. It is well-known that the isom-sheaf Isom$(\mathbb{A}^1_k,\mathbb{A}^1_k)$ is not representable by an algebraic space. (To be clear, the functor Isom$(\mathbb{...

Use of flattening stratification (from Nitsure's construction of Hilbert and Quot schemes)

I study Nitin Nitsures paper on the Construction of Hilbert and Quot Schemes and not understand the propetry (F) completely: In previous chapter (Embedding Quot into Grassmanian) it was proved that ...

A Subfunctor of Quot-functor compatible with pullbacks

Let $X$ be a smooth projective irreducible algebraic curve over field $k$. For $d,r,k,m >0$ the representable Quot scheme $\mathcal {Quot}_X^{r,d}(\mathcal{O}_X(m)^k)$ is given for any test scheme $...

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{...
