Exercise 111.37.6. Maps of \text{Proj}. Let R and S be graded rings. Suppose we have a ring map

\psi : R \to S

and an integer e \geq 1 such that \psi (R_ d) \subset S_{de} for all d \geq 0. (By our conventions this is not a homomorphism of graded rings, unless e = 1.)

  1. For which elements \mathfrak p \in \text{Proj}(S) is there a well-defined corresponding point in \text{Proj}(R)? In other words, find a suitable open U \subset \text{Proj}(S) such that \psi defines a continuous map r_\psi : U \to \text{Proj}(R).

  2. Give an example where U \not= \text{Proj}(S).

  3. Give an example where U = \text{Proj}(S).

  4. (Do not write this down.) Convince yourself that the continuous map U \to \text{Proj}(R) comes canonically with a map on sheaves so that r_\psi is a morphism of schemes:

    \text{Proj}(S) \supset U \longrightarrow \text{Proj}(R).
  5. What can you say about this map if R = \bigoplus _{d \geq 0} S_{de} (as a graded ring with S_ e, S_{2e}, etc in degree 1, 2, etc) and \psi is the inclusion mapping?
