Translator's policy notes

  • "Préschéma formel" → "formal prescheme" throughout. EGA III §III.3–§III.4 develop proper morphisms of formal preschemes anticipating the full Chapter I §10 treatment.
  • "Système projectif satisfaisant (ML)" stays as "projective system satisfying (ML)" rather than "inverse system" — match EGA's vocabulary.
  • "Koszul complex" is the modern name for what EGA calls . We render the EGA name with a translator's note at first use in §III.1.1.1 and use "Koszul" elsewhere only when no ambiguity is risked.
  • "Caractéristique d'Euler–Poincaré" stays as Euler–Poincaré characteristic (not "Euler characteristic" alone — EGA's nomenclature is settled).
  • "Suites spectrales de changement de base" → base-change spectral sequences (EGA III §III.6.9). Distinct from the base-change spectral sequences for Tor and Ext in .
  • "Suites spectrales d'associativité" → associativity spectral sequences (EGA III §III.6.8); the corresponding spectral functor is called "associativity spectral functor" (foncteur spectral d'associativité).
  • "Foncteur spectral" rendered as "spectral functor" (not "spectral sequence functor"); EGA's term is the family of spectral sequences attached to a parameter (the here).
  • For §III.6.7: EGA writes for hypercohomology in negative-degree convention (matching via ). We preserve this sign convention literally; the hypertor abutment is indexed by , and the (b)-type sequence relates it to .
  • "Edge-homomorphisme" → edge homomorphism (no hyphen in English); cf. ledger entry at .

Subsection coverage:

  • §6.8 (lines 1258–1324): associativity spectral functor of (6.8.2); affine corollary (6.8.3).
  • §6.9 (lines 1325–1613): base-change spectral sequences of (6.9.3); flat- reduction (6.9.2); degenerate-case isomorphisms (6.9.6); uniform -bound (6.9.7); restatement (6.9.8); fibrewise commutation (6.9.10).

Subsection coverage:

  • §6.10 (lines 1615–end): local structure of certain cohomological functors. Proposition (6.10.1) establishes the existence of a quasi-coherent -flat complex on with and the base-change-functorial diagram (6.10.1.2). Corollary (6.10.2) gives boundedness improvements. Remarks (6.10.3) record the spectral sequence (e), the homotopy non-uniqueness of , and the free / finite-cover refinement. Scholium (6.10.4) explains why hypertor is the right tool when flatness fails. Theorem (6.10.5) is the noetherian proper-morphism specialization (, , -flat coherent): the complex may be taken associated to free -modules of finite type. Remark (6.10.6) records the single-coherent-sheaf case and asks the converse question about realizing a given complex of projectives.

Translator's policy notes — Part C

  • and : EGA uses cursive script-K and script-L for the two complexes appearing in (6.10.1) and (6.10.5). We render them as and respectively, matching the script-X conventions established in Parts A and B.
  • denotes the homology sheaves of the chain complex of -modules , taken termwise. This is not a hypercohomology of a functor; it is the homology of a complex of sheaves. The locked cohomology notation (hyperderived-functor of ) is reserved for the LHS of (6.10.5.1), matching Part B's sign-convention discussion at the bottom of the policy notes.
  • (6.10.3.1) interprets the spectral sequence (e) of (6.9.3) in the present flat- setting. EGA writes the E_2 term using a hyperhomology-of- slot; when is concentrated in degree 0 this collapses to . We keep the general form .
  • (0, 11.5.2.1) "dualized": EGA's literal "« dualisée »". We preserve the quoted hint as in the source.
