Lemma 28.17.2. Let X be a scheme. Let \mathcal{L} be an invertible sheaf on X. Let s \in \Gamma (X, \mathcal{L}). Let \mathcal{F} be a quasi-coherent \mathcal{O}_ X-module.
If X is quasi-compact, then (28.17.1.1) is injective, and
if X is quasi-compact and quasi-separated, then (28.17.1.1) is an isomorphism.
In particular, the canonical map
\Gamma _*(X, \mathcal{L})_{(s)} \longrightarrow \Gamma (X_ s, \mathcal{O}_ X),\quad a/s^ n \longmapsto a \otimes s^{-n}
is an isomorphism if X is quasi-compact and quasi-separated.
Proof.
Assume X is quasi-compact. Choose a finite affine open covering X = U_1 \cup \ldots \cup U_ m with U_ j affine and \mathcal{L}|_{U_ j} \cong \mathcal{O}_{U_ j}. Via this isomorphism, the image s|_{U_ j} corresponds to some f_ j \in \Gamma (U_ j, \mathcal{O}_{U_ j}). Then X_ s \cap U_ j = D(f_ j).
Proof of (1). Let t/s^ n be an element in the kernel of (28.17.1.1). Then t|_{X_ s} = 0. Hence (t|_{U_ j})|_{D(f_ j)} = 0. By Lemma 28.17.1 we conclude that f_ j^{e_ j} t|_{U_ j} = 0 for some e_ j \geq 0. Let e = \max (e_ j). Then we see that t \otimes s^ e restricts to zero on U_ j for all j, hence is zero. Since t/s^ n is equal to t \otimes s^ e/s^{n + e} in \Gamma _*(X, \mathcal{L}, \mathcal{F})_{(s)} we conclude that t/s^ n = 0 as desired.
Proof of (2). Assume X is quasi-compact and quasi-separated. Then U_ j \cap U_{j'} is quasi-compact for all pairs j, j', see Schemes, Lemma 26.21.6. By part (1) we know (28.17.1.1) is injective. Let t' \in \Gamma (X_ s, \mathcal{F}|_{X_ s}). For every j, there exist an integer e_ j \geq 0 and t'_ j \in \Gamma (U_ j, \mathcal{F}|_{U_ j}) such that t'|_{D(f_ j)} corresponds to t'_ j/f_ j^{e_ j} via the isomorphism of Lemma 28.17.1. Set e = \max (e_ j) and
t_ j = f_ j^{e - e_ j} t'_ j \otimes q_ j^ e \in \Gamma (U_ j, (\mathcal{F} \otimes _{\mathcal{O}_ X} \mathcal{L}^{\otimes e})|_{U_ j})
where q_ j \in \Gamma (U_ j, \mathcal{L}|_{U_ j}) is the trivializing section coming from the isomorphism \mathcal{L}|_{U_ j} \cong \mathcal{O}_{U_ j}. In particular we have s|_{U_ j} = f_ j q_ j. Using this a calculation shows that t_ j|_{U_ j \cap U_{j'}} and t_{j'}|_{U_ j \cap U_{j'}} map to the same section of \mathcal{F} over U_ j \cap U_{j'} \cap X_ s. By quasi-compactness of U_ j \cap U_{j'} and part (1) there exists an integer e' \geq 0 such that
t_ j|_{U_ j \cap U_{j'}} \otimes s^{e'}|_{U_ j \cap U_{j'}} = t_{j'}|_{U_ j \cap U_{j'}} \otimes s^{e'}|_{U_ j \cap U_{j'}}
as sections of \mathcal{F} \otimes \mathcal{L}^{\otimes e + e'} over U_ j \cap U_{j'}. We may choose the same e' to work for all pairs j, j'. Then the sheaf conditions implies there is a section t \in \Gamma (X, \mathcal{F} \otimes \mathcal{L}^{\otimes e + e'}) whose restriction to U_ j is t_ j \otimes s^{e'}|_{U_ j}. A simple computation shows that t/s^{e + e'} maps to t' as desired.
