Finiteness of formal pushforwards

Algebraic Geometry 2025-04-08 v2 Commutative Algebra

Abstract

Under mild hypotheses, given a scheme UU and an open subset VV whose complement has codimension at least two, the pushforward of a torsion-free coherent sheaf on VV is coherent on UU. We prove an analog of this result in the context of formal schemes over a complete discrete valuation ring. We then apply this to obtain a result about gluing formal functions, where the patches do not cover the entire scheme.
