Lemma 39.19.2. Let S be a scheme. Let (U, R, s, t, c) be a groupoid scheme over S.
For any subset W \subset U the subset t(s^{-1}(W)) is set-theoretically R-invariant.
If s and t are open, then for every open W \subset U the open t(s^{-1}(W)) is an R-invariant open subscheme.
If s and t are open and quasi-compact, then U has an open covering consisting of R-invariant quasi-compact open subschemes.
Proof.
Part (1) follows from Lemmas 39.3.4 and 39.13.2, namely, t(s^{-1}(W)) is the set of points of U equivalent to a point of W. Next, assume s and t open and W \subset U open. Since s is open the set W' = t(s^{-1}(W)) is an open subset of U. Finally, assume that s, t are both open and quasi-compact. Then, if W \subset U is a quasi-compact open, then also W' = t(s^{-1}(W)) is a quasi-compact open, and invariant by the discussion above. Letting W range over all affine opens of U we see (3).
