For every homogeneous ,
Hence
so is open in the Zariski topology.
If , then is a homogeneous prime ideal that does not contain the irrelevant ideal of a graded ring . Thus
defines a map . On every standard affine open of Proj the graded homomorphism induces
and therefore an affine scheme morphism
These morphisms agree after localization on overlaps, so they glue to the required morphism of schemes .
A graded module over a graded ring determines a quasi-coherent sheaf on the Proj construction by taking the degree-zero part of its localization on each standard affine open of Proj. Localization identifies these module sheaves on overlaps. The construction is exact, by exactness of localization and exactness of taking a fixed graded component.
