Exercise 111.34.10. Prove there exist a f \in \mathbf{C}[x, t] which is not divisible by t - \alpha for any \alpha \in \mathbf{C} such that there does not exist any Z \subset \mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(\mathbf{C}[x, t, 1/f]) which maps finite surjectively to \mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(\mathbf{C}[t]). (I think that f(x, t) = (xt - 2)(x - t + 3) works. To show any candidate has the required property is not so easy I think.)
