Definition 49.9.1. Let f : Y \to X be a flat locally quasi-finite morphism of locally Noetherian schemes. Let \omega _{Y/X} be the relative dualizing module and let \tau _{Y/X} \in \Gamma (Y, \omega _{Y/X}) be the trace element (Remarks 49.2.11 and 49.4.7). The annihilator of

\mathop{\mathrm{Coker}}(\mathcal{O}_ Y \xrightarrow {\tau _{Y/X}} \omega _{Y/X})

is the different of Y/X. It is a coherent ideal \mathfrak {D}_ f \subset \mathcal{O}_ Y.

Should it be that all the propositions are true for Noetherian repalce by locally Noetherian? I don't see why we need Noetherian.

in fact in tag0BWJ, may not by Noetherian
