Lemma 28.7.2. Let X be a scheme. The following are equivalent:
The scheme X is normal.
For every affine open U \subset X the ring \mathcal{O}_ X(U) is normal.
There exists an affine open covering X = \bigcup U_ i such that each \mathcal{O}_ X(U_ i) is normal.
There exists an open covering X = \bigcup X_ j such that each open subscheme X_ j is normal.
Moreover, if X is normal then every open subscheme is normal.
