Formally unramified morphisms #

A morphism of schemes f : X ⟶ Y is formally unramified if for each affine U ⊆ Y and V ⊆ f ⁻¹' U, the induced map Γ(Y, U) ⟶ Γ(X, V) is formally unramified.

We show that these properties are local, and are stable under compositions and base change.

If S is a formally unramified R-algebra, essentially of finite type, the diagonal is an open immersion.

    f : X ⟶ S is formally unramified if X ⟶ X ×ₛ X is an open immersion. In particular, monomorphisms (e.g. immersions) are formally unramified. The converse is true if f is locally of finite type.

    The diagonal of a formally unramified morphism of finite type is an open immersion.

    Given any commuting diagram

    Z' --→ X
    |      |
    ↓      ↓
    Z  --→ Y
    

    With X ⟶ Y formally unramified and Z' ⟶ Z an infinitesimal thickening, there exists at most one arrow Z ⟶ X making the diagram commute.

    To show that f : X ⟶ Y is formally unramified, it suffices to check for that every following commuting diagram

    Spec R --→ X
      |        |
      ↓        ↓
    Spec S --→ Y
    

    with S = R/I for some I² = 0, there exists at most one arrow Spec S ⟶ X making the diagram commute.
