Hilbert polynomial of the graph and boundedness of Hom scheme?
$begingroup$
Let $X,Y$ be two projective variety over an algebraically closed field, then we know $Hom(X,Y)$ has a scheme structure by considering the embedding as a open subscheme of $Hilb(X times Y)$ using the graph.
We know for each fixed polynomial $P$, the Hilbert scheme with Hilbert polynomial $P$ is projective hence finite type. And it seems that the graph of any $f:X -> Y$ is isomorphic to $X$ hence has the same Hilbert polynomial viewed as a closed subscheme of $X times Y$. However, Hom scheme can have infinitely many component (for example consider $End(E)$ where $E$ is an ellptic curve). So where does my intuition goes wrong? If $X,Y$ are both smooth curves, can we decide all of the connected components?

Sasha already answered your question perfectly. Let me just add that your intuition is wrong, as can be already seen in the following example. Let $X$ be isomorphic to the projective line. Then, one can linearly embed $X$ into $mathbb{P}^2$. Such an embedding makes $X$ into a degree one subvariety of $mathbb{P}^2$. However, you could have also embedded $X$ into $mathbb{P}^2$ as a conic. This then makes $X$ into a degree two subvariety of $mathbb{P}^2$. So, subvarieties of $mathbb{P}^2$ (or the Hilbert scheme for that matter) which are abstractly isomorphic could have different degree.

To define a Hilbert polynomial you need to choose an ample line bundle. A reasonable choice on $X times Y$ is $L_X boxtimes L_Y$, where $L_X$ and $L_Y$ are line bundles on $X$ and $Y$. Then if $f colon X to Y$ is a morphism, the restriction of $L_X boxtimes L_Y$ to the graph $Gamma(f)$ of $f$ corresponds to the line bundle $L_X otimes f^*L_Y$ on $X$, hence the Hilbert polynomial of $Gamma(f)$ equals the Hilbert polynomial of $X$ with respect to $L_X otimes f^*L_Y$. In particular, it does depend on $f$.

I forget the same line bundle can be different after restriction, thank you very much!

Then if $f colon X to Y$ is a morphism, the restriction of $L_X boxtimes L_Y$ to the graph $Gamma(f)$ of $f$ corresponds to the line bundle $L_X otimes f^*L_Y$ on $X$, hence the Hilbert polynomial of $Gamma(f)$ equals the Hilbert polynomial of $X$ with respect to $L_X otimes f^*L_Y$. In particular, it does depend on $f$.
