Given an inverse sequence of functors determined on a subcategory, when is the limit determined on that subcategory?

I will first state the general version of my question, but I do have a specific context in mind in which second I'll dance around. (1.) Let $\mathsf{C}$ be a full subcategory of a category $\mathsf{D}$...

Spec of an infinite intersection of ideals, Spec of a colimit

This comes from the study of Krull's Intersection Theorem, and deriving a geometric meaning. Let $I \subset R$ be an ideal of a commutative ring (we shall see the case when $R$ is Noetherian). ...

Cech cohomology on infinite open cover commutes with colimit on Noetherian space? (Exercise 5.2.6 in Qing Liu's book)

This is Exercise 5.2.6 in Qing Liu's book Algebraic Geometry and Arithmetic Curve. In part (b), I can show (b) if the open covering has only finitely many open subsets, since the the colimit of the ...

Writing $\operatorname{Spec}\mathbb{Z}$ as an inverse limit of finite $T_0$-spaces

I want to show that $\operatorname{Spec}\mathbb{Z}$ can be written as an inverse limit of finite $T_0$-spaces. First off, $\operatorname{Spec}\mathbb{Z} = \{(0), (2),(3),(5),...\}$, so the closed sets ...

Sheaves valued in a $k$-category

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a $k$-category which we regard as an $\infty$-category whose objects all happens to be $k$-truncated. A sheaf $F$ valued in $\mathcal{C}$, in the $\infty$-categorical sense, is a ...

Does invertibility of a section $f$ (of a sheaf of rings) in every open set containing $x$ imply invertibility of $f$ in the stalk at $x$?

Let $\mathcal{O}$ be a sheaf of commutative rings on a topological space $X$. Let a point $x \in X$ and a global section $f \in \mathcal{O}(X)$ be given. Suppose that for every open $U \subset X$ with ...

Spec commutes with cofiltered limits in concrete example

Currently I am learning some alg. geometry and I would like to show the following claim: Let $\mathfrak{p}$ be some prime ideal of $A$. Then $$ \varprojlim_{f\notin \mathfrak{p}} \operatorname{Spec}...

Is the limit of a family of sheaves a sheaf?

So, I can prove that the kernel of a morphism of sheaves or a product of sheaves is a sheaf, but I do not know how to prove in general that $lim F_{i}$ is a sheaf for $F_{i}$ sheaves. I know that if ...

Is the structure presheaf of $\text{Spec}(A)$ a limit of presheaves?

In Shafarevich's Basic Algebraic Geometry, he defines the structure presheaf on $\text{Spec}(A)$ first by $\mathcal{O}(D(f))\cong A_f$ and then $\mathcal{O}(U)=\lim_{D(f)\subset U}\mathcal{O}(D(f))$, ...

Do ample sheaves descend along limits / noetherian approximation?

Suppose $X \to S$ is a proper (projective) morphism of schemes, $S$ is quasi-compact and quasi-separated, and $\mathcal L$ is a relatively ample sheaf on $X$. By stacks, tag 01ZA, the scheme $S$ is a ...

Lemma 10.94 from Goertz' and Wedhorn's Algebraic Geometry I

I have a question about the proof of Lemma 10.94 from Goertz' & Wedhorn's Algebraic Geometry I: Lemma 10.94. Let $S$ = $\operatorname{Spec}A$ be an integral noetherian scheme with generic point $\...

The stalk as a colimit

From Vakil's notes: The notion of colimit is defined for diagrams $D:I\to\textbf{Set}$. The colimit of $D:I\to\textbf{Set}$ is the limit of $D^{op}:I^{op}\to \mathbf{Set}^{op}$. What exactly is the ...

Direct limit, inverse limit and Spec

The set-up $k$ is a field $T_i = \operatorname{Spec} A_i$ is an inverse system of affine $k$-schemes, where $i<j$ if $\operatorname{Spec} A_j \subset \operatorname{Spec} A_i$ (inclusion). $X$ is a ...

Filtered colimits in $D(X_{\text{proét}})$

In §5.2 of their pro-étale paper, Bhatt and Scholze define a functor $L$ in terms of a sequential colimit, and, separately, a full subcategory $D’$ of $D(X_{\text{proét}}):=D(X_{\text{proét}},\mathbf ...
