Abstract. This a first step to develop a theory of smooth,étale and unramified morphisms between noetherian formal schemes. Our main tool is the complete module of differentials, that is a coherent sheaf whenever the map of formal schemes is of pseudo finite type. Among our results we show that these infinitesimal properties of a map of usual schemes carry over into the completion with respect to suitable closed subsets. We characterize unramifiedness by the vanishing of the module of differentials. Also we see that a smooth morphism of noetherian formal schemes is flat and its module of differentials is locally free. The paper closes with a version of Zariski's Jacobian criterion.
ABSTRACT. A geometric stack is a quasi-compact and semi-separated algebraic stack. We prove that the quasi-coherent sheaves on the small flat topology, Cartesian presheaves on the underlying category, and comodules over a Hopf algebroid associated to a presentation of a geometric stack are equivalent categories. As a consequence, we show that the category of quasi-coherent sheaves on a geometric stack is a Grothendieck category.We also associate, in a 2-functorial way, to a 1-morphism of geometric stacks f : X → Y, an adjunction f * ⊣ f * for the corresponding categories of quasi-coherent sheaves that agrees with the classical one defined for schemes. This construction is described both geometrically in terms of the small flat site and algebraically in terms of comodules over the Hopf algebroid.
