Universally injective morphism #

A morphism of schemes f : X ⟶ Y is universally injective if X ×[Y] Y' ⟶ Y' is injective for all base changes Y' ⟶ Y. This is equivalent to the diagonal morphism being surjective (AlgebraicGeometry.UniversallyInjective.iff_diagonal).

We show that being universally injective is local at the target, and is stable under compositions and base changes.

We also prove that universally injective is equivalent to being injective with purely inseparable residue field extensions (also known as a radical morphism), see AlgebraicGeometry.tfae_universallyInjective and Stacks tag 01S4.

A morphism of schemes f : X ⟶ Y is universally injective if the base change X ×[Y] Y' ⟶ Y' along any morphism Y' ⟶ Y is injective (on points).
