TL;DR
This paper identifies a likely error in EGA I, specifically in corollary 2.4.4, and calls for further research to determine its impact on the literature.
Contribution
It highlights a specific mistake in a foundational algebraic geometry text and urges investigation into its dissemination and implications.
Findings
Potential error in EGA I corollary 2.4.4
Uncertainty about the error's spread in literature
Recommendation for further research
Abstract
A mistake is pointed out in EGA I, Elements of algebraic geometry, concerning corollary (2.4.4) which is not correct. Quite likely, the hitch has already been noticed, and reported, but we know not who, nor where. New research is recommended to find out if the error has spread or not, in the book and, further, in the literature.
