How statement and proof provenance work
The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.
- Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
- AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
- AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.
These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.
Projective GAGA for framed coherent and monad data
Statement
Let , , its complex analytic space, and the canonical morphism of ringed spaces. Let denote the abelian category of all sheaves of -modules on a ringed space , and let be the category of bounded-below cochain complexes in it with quasi-isomorphisms inverted; use the cochain shift convention with differential . For coherent -modules placed in degree zero, define the global derived morphism groups
On , these groups can be computed from a bounded cochain complex of finite-rank locally free sheaves together with a quasi-isomorphism , by ; the analogous computation applies to the analytified resolution on .
Define analytification by . It is an exact tensor-compatible equivalence from coherent algebraic -modules (locally finitely presented modules) to coherent analytic -modules (locally finitely presented modules). For every coherent , the canonical cohomology comparison
is an isomorphism for all . For coherent , the map
is the map obtained by analytifying a finite locally free resolution of and applying the cohomology comparisons term by term; independence of the chosen resolution makes it canonical. It is an isomorphism for all , and for it is the usual comparison of algebraic and holomorphic morphisms. Here is sheaf cohomology computed by right-derived global sections using a supplied functorial injective-resolution datum.
Let be the fixed hyperplane inclusion, where , and let be its analytification. For an -module, . There is a canonical natural isomorphism , so restriction to the fixed hyperplane commutes with analytification.

by the following construction. For every algebraic open , the morphism and the natural pullback map on sheaf cohomology give a map .

The only analytic scalar cohomology fact used here is and for when . The local proof of Projective Dolbeault comparison and scalar structure-sheaf cohomology supplies these values through its scalar clause and the locally proved Laurent–Čech computation cited there. That computation includes acyclic analytic intersections, normal convergence of the coefficient homotopy, and the degree-zero singleton-negative-set boundary; it does not use GAGA. The supplier's broader vector-bundle Dolbeault comparison is not needed here. Serre's §13, Lemma 4 is historical source attribution, not an external proof premise.

The four analytic declarations [A1], [A3]–[A5] are exact prerequisite interfaces.

Proof
Given: The Statement, full AC, and the locally proved analytic supplier Statements [A1], [A3]–[A5], with the precise interfaces in [L1]. We prove the absolute assertion by induction through dimensions , then prove the stated family comparison.
At a complex point, coherent algebraic and analytic modules are finite-dimensional complex vector spaces, so the absolute assertions hold in dimension zero. Flatness in [A1] makes analytification exact stalkwise, including for nonreduced finite-type schemes. Tensor associativity gives tensor compatibility and compatibility with quotient restriction to a hyperplane. A finite algebraic presentation analytifies to a finite analytic presentation, so [A3] ensures its cokernel is coherent. For a closed analytic embedding, direct image is exact on stalks and preserves flabby sheaves: its sections over an open are the original sections over the intersection with the closed subspace. Pushing forward a flabby resolution therefore identifies cohomology on the closed subspace and its direct image. These facts apply to the hyperplane sequences below.
Suppose the absolute theorem has been proved in dimensions below , where . For the natural comparison is an isomorphism by [A5] and [F3]. The exact hyperplane sequences exist on both sides by step 1.1, and their cohomology maps commute with analytification. For , assume comparison at . The lower-dimensional comparison and [F3] give for ; the sequence therefore gives analytic higher vanishing at and an exact sequence on global sections. Every homogeneous degree- polynomial on extends by the same polynomial in on ; the kernel of restriction is times the degree- polynomials. The natural map of these exact section sequences is an isomorphism at its outer terms, hence also at its middle term by [F4]. This proves the natural comparison for all without using GAGA in dimension .
For the negative twists, the sequence has restriction equal to the identity in degree zero and no positive cohomology in the two right terms by [A5] and lower-dimensional comparison. Thus analytic is acyclic, as is its algebraic counterpart by [F3]. For every , multiplication by a power of injects the line bundle into : in each analytic chart its local equation is a nonzero holomorphic function in the integral holomorphic germ ring, so multiplication is injective. Hence . Descend using . Comparison is already known at and on the hyperplane at every twist. For , the four neighbors in are therefore naturally compared isomorphically, so [F4] gives the middle comparison. This also handles , where the point hyperplane's negative twists still have a one-dimensional section space; they were not incorrectly set to zero. Thus all integer twists have canonical cohomology comparison, without analytic Serre duality or an affine finite-pole assertion.
Resolve an algebraic coherent by [F2]. Its finite twisting-sheaf resolution stays exact analytically by step 1.1. Starting at its leftmost term, the long exact sequences and steps 2.1 and 3.1 prove cohomology comparison for each successive cokernel and hence for in every degree. This uses the actual finite resolution, not an unproved global analytic free resolution.
Let now be any coherent analytic sheaf on . For every nonzero linear section , retain both and , and write . Locally is a hyperplane equation, so it annihilates and ; [A3] makes them coherent sheaves on . The inductive equivalence algebraizes them. By [F3], their positive cohomology vanishes after sufficiently positive twists. The two exact sequences and then show that multiplication by on is eventually an isomorphism for , and eventually surjective for . The term prevents an initial claim of injectivity in degree one. This argument includes hyperplane torsion; was not assumed injective on .
For finitely presented algebraic , a finite presentation computes the sheaf as a kernel between finite powers of . Exact analytification and [A3] therefore identify its analytification with analytic . Step 4.1 in degree zero identifies morphisms. A finite locally free resolution of computes global by the hypercohomology of its Hom complex: locally free Hom is exact, and an injective resolution gives the resulting double-complex comparison. Termwise cohomology comparison and finiteness of the resolution identify algebraic and analytic Ext in every degree. Thus full faithfulness and cohomology/Ext comparison in dimension are proved before essential surjectivity.
Fix and a nonzero . For , the eventual surjections in step 4.2 make the finite dimensions in [A4] nonincreasing integers, hence eventually constant; thereafter multiplication by is an isomorphism. For it is already eventually an isomorphism. Choose beyond this range, put , and identify each , , with by successive multiplication by . A second independent section induces an endomorphism on between successive degrees. The commuting multiplication square gives . If , choose an eigenvalue by [F7]. Multiplication by the nonzero section then induces , singular at every such degree. But step 4.2 applied to this fixed section is eventually an isomorphism for ; for it is eventually surjective between spaces of the same stabilized dimension and hence an isomorphism too. This contradiction proves eventual vanishing. The eigenvalue is chosen before its section's threshold; no bound uniform over an infinite pencil is used.
A simultaneous bound is available. For take the maximum of the finitely many bounds from step 5.2. If , the inductive algebraic dimension bound [F7] makes all relevant cohomology groups of in step 4.2 zero at every twist. Multiplication by every nonzero is then an isomorphism on at every integer . The same two-section contradiction starting at any degree forces these groups to be zero at every twist. Thus one integer bounds vanishing for all .
Fix a point and choose a hyperplane through it. By the inductive equivalence, is algebraic. Its finite resolution [F2] begins with a surjection from a finite sum of twisting sheaves. After a sufficiently positive twist each summand is generated by its finite homogeneous monomials, so has finitely many global generators, analytically as well by inductive comparison. Also choose so by step 6.1 and by induction and [F3]. The first exact sequence in step 4.2 gives ; the second then lifts those finitely many generators to global sections of . The cokernel of these lifts satisfies , so local Nakayama [F7] gives . Finite local generation of the coherent cokernel gives an open neighborhood of on which the lifts generate.
Shrink each such neighborhood into a coordinate nonvanishing set , with generating sections of some twist . Compactness gives finitely many neighborhoods covering projective space, with integers . For every , multiply the th generating set by . These are global sections of and still generate on , since is a unit there. Their finite union generates everywhere. This proves analytic positive-twist generation from the exact earlier suppliers. No assertion about finite pole order of arbitrary entire functions on an affine chart is used.
Apply step 8.1 to to obtain a surjection . Its kernel is coherent by [A3]. Choose the second generator twist large enough for step 8.1 to give a surjection onto that kernel. This gives a finite presentation . Every matrix entry is a holomorphic section of , with , so step 2.1 identifies it with an algebraic section. More generally step 3.1 supplies the same comparison at every negative twist. Take its algebraic cokernel; step 1.1 identifies its analytification with . Step 5.1 algebraizes each isomorphism and its inverse and preserves their identity composites. This proves essential surjectivity and completes the absolute induction through dimensions , including the claimed dimensions two and three.
To complete the family comparison after the absolute equivalence of step 9.1, first establish the local-section formula: for any morphism of ringed spaces and module sheaf , take the module-injective resolution from [F5]. The injective-module lemma in [F5] makes every flasque as an abelian sheaf, and its restriction to is flasque for every open . Restriction preserves exactness on stalks, so the restricted underlying abelian complex is a resolution of by global-sections-acyclic sheaves. Its cycles lie in the category of all abelian sheaves on , where [F5] supplies the injective-resolution datum. The acyclic-resolution theorem therefore identifies with , naturally under open restriction. The cohomology sheaf of is the sheafification of its presheaf cohomology: kernels are computed on opens, image sheaves are the sheafifications of presheaf images, and the assertion follows on stalks by exactness of filtered colimits. Thus , compatibly with restrictions and scalar multiplication. This argument covers analytic ringed spaces as well as schemes.
Write and let , be analytification maps. For every algebraic open , [F6] gives . Composing with the presheaf-to-sheaf map of step 10.1, then sheafifying on , gives the -linear map . Pull back and tensor with to obtain ; explicitly maps to times the analytically pulled-back germ of . Tensor balancing proves well-definedness. This constructs an actual comparison morphism without assuming its invertibility or a relative-GAGA theorem.
At over the closed complex point , tensor associativity gives for every algebraic module sheaf , and . These are underived restrictions, valid also for singular or nonreduced bases. The square with top map , vertical maps the assumed algebraic and analytic fiber-base-change maps, and bottom map commutes: represent a stalk by a class on using step 10.1; both paths pull back that class along the same map from the analytic fiber, with identical tensor restriction of coefficients, so [F6] identifies them. The bottom map is an isomorphism by step 4.1, and both vertical maps are isomorphisms by the Statement's explicit hypotheses. Hence is an isomorphism. Both sheaves compared by are finite locally free by those same hypotheses. Locally their ranks agree, and its matrix has determinant with nonzero residue at every , hence a unit; the adjugate gives a local inverse. Therefore is an isomorphism.
For an algebraic finite-type base map , apply the same class-pullback construction to the pulled-back family. Tensor associativity identifies its analytification with the analytic pullback family. The square of the two comparison morphisms and the algebraic and analytic base-change maps commutes, since all maps pull back the same local cohomology classes and [F6] respects compositions. Whenever both families satisfy the Statement's locally-free and fiber-base-change hypotheses, step 12.1 makes their comparison morphisms invertible, so it identifies their base-change maps. This proves the complete stated family range, including the closed-fiber maps, without asserting arbitrary analytic-family algebraization. Full AC is inherited through [F1] and the resolution construction [F5]. The analytic inputs [A1], [A3]–[A5] are supplied by their local proof carriers; the hyperplane and pencil argument above uses precisely those interfaces. Their draft status and workflow verification remain separate from this mathematical derivation.
