Regular local rings of schemes #

On an affine open with Noetherian ring of sections, regularity of that ring is equivalent to regularity of the local rings at every point of the open. In particular, a Noetherian ring is regular exactly when the local rings of its spectrum are regular. Open immersions identify local rings, so they preserve and reflect their regularity.

Main declarations #

If the sections over an affine open U form a regular ring, the local rings at the points of U are regular.

The sections over an affine open U with Noetherian ring of sections form a regular ring exactly when the local rings at the points of U are regular.

The local rings of the spectrum of a regular ring are regular.

A Noetherian ring is regular exactly when the local rings of its spectrum are regular.

An open immersion f : X ⟶ Y identifies the local ring of X at x with the local ring of Y at f x, so one is regular exactly when the other is.
