Let $f:X\longrightarrow Y$ be a morphism of noetherian schemes. Under what conditions is $f_\ast \mathcal{O}_X$ a locally free $\mathcal{O}_Y$-module?
Example 1. Suppose that $f$ is affine. Then $f_\...

When are free modules on sheaves of sets quasicoherent?
This question was previously asked over at math.SE.
Let $X$ be a scheme. Let $\mathcal{E}$ be a sheaf of sets on $X$. Then we can define $\mathcal{O}_X\langle\mathcal{E}\rangle$, the free module over ...
