Picard's iteration method

I want to find a series of functions converging to the solution of $$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x^2}{y^2+1},y(0)=0$$. I am stuck using picard's iteration method First iteration: $$y_1 = \frac{x^3}{3}$$ Second iteration: $$y_1 = \arctan \frac{x^3}{3}$$…

The sheafification of the relative Picard functor

In the proof for the second part of theorem 2.5 found in Kleiman's paper https://arxiv.org/pdf/math/0504020.pdf, he claimed that any $\lambda\in \text{Pic}_{(X/S)(\text{fppf})}(T)$ can be represented by an invertible sheaf…
