Definition 29.21.1. Let $f : X \to S$ be a morphism of schemes.

  1. We say that $f$ is of finite presentation at $x \in X$ if there exists an affine open neighbourhood $\mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(A) = U \subset X$ of $x$ and affine open $\mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(R) = V \subset S$ with $f(U) \subset V$ such that the induced ring map $R \to A$ is of finite presentation.

  2. We say that $f$ is locally of finite presentation if it is of finite presentation at every point of $X$.

  3. We say that $f$ is of finite presentation if it is locally of finite presentation, quasi-compact and quasi-separated.
