Pro<str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g>. Follows from Lemma 1.3.4 and the structure theorem for Azumaya algebras<br />
(1.1.6).<br />
Theorem 1.3.7. Let A be an Azumaya algebra over X. Then the functor F<br />
defined above is an equivalence <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>categories</str<strong>on</strong>g> between Mod(X, α) and Mod-A .<br />
Pro<str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g>. Let E be as before, and define G : Mod-A → Mod(X, α) by the formula<br />
G( · ) = · ⊗A E .<br />
(The tensor product over A is defined locally, as usual.)<br />
From the formulas<br />
E ⊗OX E ∨ ∼ = End(E ) ∼ = A<br />
and<br />
E ∨ ⊗A E ∼ = OX<br />
(see lemma 1.3.3) it follows that F and G are inverse to <strong>on</strong>e another. Taking global<br />
secti<strong>on</strong>s in Propositi<strong>on</strong> 1.3.6 and using Propositi<strong>on</strong> 1.2.12 we see that F is full and<br />
faithful, so it is an equivalence <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>categories</str<strong>on</strong>g>.<br />
Remark 1.3.8. It is not hard to see that in fact all the functors we have defined in<br />
Propositi<strong>on</strong> 1.2.10 (⊗, Hom, f ∗ , f∗, f!) are compatible with this equivalence. So<br />
from now <strong>on</strong> we’ll just freely switch between the viewpoint that <str<strong>on</strong>g>twisted</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>sheaves</str<strong>on</strong>g> are<br />
“local <str<strong>on</strong>g>sheaves</str<strong>on</strong>g> that d<strong>on</strong>’t quite match up” and the viewpoint that <str<strong>on</strong>g>twisted</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>sheaves</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
are “modules over an Azumaya algebra”. As an applicati<strong>on</strong> <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> this, we prove the<br />
following theorem, which shows that <strong>on</strong> a proper scheme over C, <str<strong>on</strong>g>twisted</str<strong>on</strong>g> coherent<br />
<str<strong>on</strong>g>sheaves</str<strong>on</strong>g> (in the étale topology) are the same as analytic <str<strong>on</strong>g>twisted</str<strong>on</strong>g> coherent <str<strong>on</strong>g>sheaves</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
(in the Euclidean topology) <strong>on</strong> the associated analytic space.<br />
Theorem 1.3.9. Let X be a proper scheme over C, let h : X h → X be the natural<br />
c<strong>on</strong>tinuous map from the associated analytic space, and let α be an element <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
Br(X), represented by an Azumaya algebra A . Let A h = h ∗ A , and let α h =<br />
a(A h ). Fix an α-lffr E such that End(E ) ∼ = A and an α h -lffr E h such that<br />
End(E h ) ∼ = A h . Let F be the functor<br />
defined by<br />
Then F is exact, its restricti<strong>on</strong><br />
F : Mod(X, α) → Mod(X h , α h )<br />
F ( · ) = h ∗ ( · ⊗OX E ∨ ) ⊗ A h E h .<br />
F |Coh : Coh(X, α) → Coh(X h , α h )<br />
is an equivalence <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>categories</str<strong>on</strong>g>, and we have, for any F , G ∈ Coh(X, α)<br />
h ∗ Hom Mod(X,α)(F , G ) = Hom Mod(X h ,α h )(F (F ), G(G )).<br />
