Abstract

A basic question for any property of quasi--coherent sheaves on a scheme XX is whether the property is local, that is, it can be defined using any open affine covering of XX. Locality follows from the descent of the corresponding module property: for (infinite dimensional) vector bundles and Drinfeld vector bundles, it was proved by Kaplansky's technique of d\'evissage already in \cite[II.\S3]{RG}. Since vector bundles coincide with 0\aleph_0-restricted Drinfeld vector bundles, a question arose in \cite{EGPT} of whether locality holds for κ\kappa-restricted Drinfeld vector bundles for each infinite cardinal κ\kappa. We give a positive answer here by replacing the d\' evissage with its recent refinement involving C\mathcal C-filtrations and the Hill Lemma.
