Differentials on the arc space
arXiv:1703.07505 · doi:10.1215/00127094-2019-0043
Abstract
The paper provides a description of the sheaves of Kähler differentials of the arc space and jet schemes of an arbitrary scheme where these sheaves are computed directly from the sheaf of differentials of the given scheme. Several applications on the structure of arc spaces are presented.
