From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In sheaf theory, a field of mathematics, a sheaf of 
-modules 
on a ringed space X is called locally free if for each point 
, there is an open neighborhood U of x such that 
is free as an 
-module, or equivalently, 
, the stalk of at p, is free as a 
-module. If is of finite rank n, then is said to be of rank n.
