Lemma 38.17.1. Let $f : X \to S$ be a morphism of schemes which is of finite type. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a finite type quasi-coherent $\mathcal{O}_ X$-module.
If the support of $\mathcal{F}$ is proper over $S$, then $\mathcal{F}$ is universally pure relative to $S$.
If $f$ is proper, then $\mathcal{F}$ is universally pure relative to $S$.
If $f$ is proper, then $X$ is universally pure relative to $S$.
Proof. First we reduce (1) to (2). Namely, let $Z \subset X$ be the scheme theoretic support of $\mathcal{F}$. Let $i : Z \to X$ be the corresponding closed immersion and write $\mathcal{F} = i_*\mathcal{G}$ for some finite type quasi-coherent $\mathcal{O}_ Z$-module $\mathcal{G}$, see Morphisms, Section 29.5. In case (1) $Z \to S$ is proper by assumption. Thus by Lemma 38.16.7 case (1) reduces to case (2).
Assume $f$ is proper. Let $(g : T \to S, t' \leadsto t, \xi )$ be an impurity of $\mathcal{F}$ above $s \in S$. Since $f$ is proper, it is universally closed. Hence $f_ T : X_ T \to T$ is closed. Since $f_ T(\xi ) = t'$ this implies that $t \in f(\overline{\{ \xi \} })$ which is a contradiction. $\square$
