Lemma 29.13.7. Let S be a scheme. Let X be an affine scheme. A morphism f : X \to S is quasi-affine if and only if it is quasi-compact. In particular any morphism from an affine scheme to a quasi-separated scheme is quasi-affine.
Proof. Let V \subset S be an affine open. Then f^{-1}(V) is an open subscheme of the affine scheme X, hence quasi-affine if and only if it is quasi-compact. This proves the first assertion. The quasi-compactness of any f : X \to S where X is affine and S quasi-separated follows from Schemes, Lemma 26.21.14 applied to X \to S \to \mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(\mathbf{Z}). \square
