Unramified morphisms #
A morphism of schemes is unramified when it is locally of finite type and formally
unramified. This packages the two conditions as a morphism property, so geometric
constructions such as the singular subscheme of a nodal family can state the usual
unramifiedness condition directly. Since the diagonal of an unramified morphism is an open
immersion, open immersions cancel against unramified morphisms on the right
(TauCeti.AlgebraicGeometry.Unramified.isOpenImmersion_hasOfPostcompProperty). In particular, in
a pullback square along an unramified morphism, the lift of an open immersion is an open immersion
(TauCeti.AlgebraicGeometry.isOpenImmersion_lift_of_isPullback). Both conditions satisfy fpqc
descent, hence so does unramifiedness
(TauCeti.AlgebraicGeometry.Unramified.descendsAlong_surjective_inf_flat_inf_quasicompact).
Main definition #
TauCeti.AlgebraicGeometry.Unramified f:fis locally of finite type and formally unramified.
A morphism of schemes is unramified if it is locally of finite type and formally unramified.

Instances
The affine criterion for an unramified morphism.
If a composite is unramified, then its first map is unramified.
A monomorphism locally of finite type is unramified.
If f ≫ g is an open immersion and g is unramified, then f is an open immersion, since
the diagonal of an unramified morphism is an open immersion. In particular, a section of an
unramified morphism is an open immersion.
Unramified morphisms satisfy fpqc descent, since both being locally of finite type and being formally unramified do.
In a pullback square along an unramified morphism f : Y ⟶ S, the lift of an open immersion
ι : W ⟶ Z together with a compatible j : W ⟶ Y is an open immersion: it is a section over W
of the projection p : Z' ⟶ Z, which is unramified as a base change of f.
