Pinching Azumaya algebras
Abstract
We show, that for a morphism of schemes from X to Y, that is a finite modification in finitely many closed points, a cohomological Brauer class on Y is represented by an Azumaya algebra if its pullback to X is represented by an Azumaya algebra. Part of the proof uses an extension of a result by Ferrand, on pinching of finite locally free sheaves, to Azumaya algebras.
