finding the closure when blowing a variety at a singularity

Look at the affine pieces: over the open subset $u \neq 0$, you have a local coordinate $z = v/u$ and your equations can be written as $y = zx$ and $xy = x^6 + y^6$. Substituting $y$ in the second equ …

Sheaf isomorphism.

On a complete nonsingular curve over an algebraically closed field, a line bundle of degree zero with a global section is necessarily the trivial bundle. This is lemma IV.1.2 in Hartshorne's Algebraic …

Minimal size of an open affine cover

This is not a complete answer by any means, but here are the two most basic arguments. First of all, you have that every projective scheme that can be embedded in $\mathbb{P}^n$ can be covered by $n+1 …

Is the Kähler cone of a toric variety always simplicial?

The Kähler cone of a del Pezzo surface of degree 6 is not simplicial: see section 6 of these notes.

Quotient of algebraic groups in the étale topology

Let $G$ be an affine algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. According to SGA3, any closed normal subgroup $N$ is representable by an affine algebraic group, as is the quotient $G/N$. These statements ar …

In what degrees does Ext(S/(f),S) vanish?

Consider the exact sequence $0 \to S(-\mathrm{deg}\; f) \to S \to S/(f) \to 0$ (where the first map is multiplication by $f$) and take its long exact sequence of $\mathrm{Ext}$ groups. Since both $S$ …

Kahler differentials and Ordinary Differentials

UPDATE: My answer essentially just gives the definition of Kahler differentials and differential forms and misses the point of the question. Georges' answer addresses the relationship between the two. …

Why is the rank of a locally free sheaf well-defined?

Actually, there are two different restriction maps: The first one (the one you correctly say is neither surjective nor injective in general) is that on sections: for $\mathcal{F}$ a sheaf on a schem …

What is the Zariski topology good/bad for?

As Kevin said, the higher cohomology groups of constant sheaves on irreducible varieties are zero when working with the Zariski topology. Also, "fibre bundles aren't locally trivial" and "the inverse …

Definition of étale for rings

You say that a ring homomorphism $\phi: A \to B$ is étale (resp. smooth, unramified), or that $B$ is étale (resp. smooth, unramified) over $A$ is the following two conditions are satisfied: $A \to B …

Good introductory references on algebraic stacks?

It might not be the best reference for a systematic study of stacks and some of the terminology is old, but Mumford's "Picard Groups of Moduli Problems" (1965) might be a nice complement. It explains …

FIltered colimits of truncated objects in $\infty$-topoi

The bare question: Let $\mathcal{C}$ be an $\infty$-topos, and let $\tau_{\leq 0}\mathcal{C}$ be the subcategory of 0-truncated objects (which is the nerve of an ordinary Grothendieck topos: see HTT 6 …

Hypercohomology of a complex via Cech cohomology

There is a nice treatment of it in chapter 1 of Brylisnki's Loop Spaces, Characteristic Classes and Geometric Quantization. In the Stacks projects, look for section 19.19.

Examples of divisors on an analytical manifold

Here's a basic (and often used!) example: the zero locus of a homogeneous polynomial of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$. For concreteness, let me spell out the case $n = 1$, $d = 2$. Cover $\mathbb{P}^1$ …
