On flat generators and Matlis duality for quasicoherent sheaves

Algebraic Geometry 2021-09-10 v2

Abstract

We show that for a quasicompact quasiseparated scheme XX, the following assertions are equivalent: (1) the category QCoh(X)\operatorname{QCoh}(X) of all quasicoherent sheaves on XX has a flat generator; (2) for every injective object E\mathcal E of QCoh(X)\operatorname{QCoh}(X), the internal hom functor into E\mathcal E is exact; (3) the scheme XX is semiseparated.
