Cover byThese sets cover because a point of has . On , the relation shows that has local equation ; on , the relation gives local equation ; and on its local equation is . Thus is a Cartier divisor.
For the line bundle associated to a divisor , choose local framesThe transition functions areon the corresponding overlaps. Every displayed ratio is a unit in a ring in the corresponding ring of regular functions, and the Čech cocycle condition follows immediately.
Structure sheaf of a scheme 2026-09-28
The structure sheaf records the regular functions on every open subset of a scheme . Its stalk is the local ring of functions defined near .
