Abstract: Over the past two decades several different approaches to defining a geometry over mathbbF1 have been proposed. In this paper, relying on To"en and Vaqui'e's formalism, we investigate a new category mathsfSchwidetildemathsfB of schemes admitting a Zariski cover by affine schemes relative to the category of blueprints introduced by Lorscheid. A blueprint, that may be thought of as a pair consisting of a monoid M and a relation on the semiring MotimesmathbbF1mathbbN, is a monoid object in a certain symmetric monoidal category mathsfB, which is shown to be complete, cocomplete, and closed. We prove that every widetildemathsfB-scheme Sigma can be associated, through adjunctions, with both a classical scheme SigmamathbbZ and a scheme underlineSigma over mathbbF1 in the sense of Deitmar, together with a natural transformation LambdacolonSigmamathbbZounderlineSigmaotimesmathbbF1mathbbZ. Furthermore, as an application, we show that the category of "mathbbF1-schemes" defined by A. Connes and C. Consani can be naturally merged with that of widetildemathsfB-schemes to obtain a larger category, whose objects we call "mathbbF1-schemes with relations".


The authors review in this paper with great care 3 different approaches to \(\mathbb F_1\)-geometry, which are Toen-Vaquie's relative schemes, Lorscheid's blue schemes and Connes-Consani's \(\mathbb F_1\)-schemes. They explain certain adjunctions between monoids, rings and blueprints in detail and extend them to the corresponding categories of sheaves. These adjunctions allows them to merge blue schemes with Connes and Consani's notion of \(\mathbb F_1\)-schemes, which results in the category of so-called \(\mathbb F_1\)-schemes with relations as a common generalization.
