Lemma 31.20.1. Let X be a ringed space. Let f_1, \ldots , f_ r \in \Gamma (X, \mathcal{O}_ X). We have the following implications f_1, \ldots , f_ r is a regular sequence \Rightarrow f_1, \ldots , f_ r is a Koszul-regular sequence \Rightarrow f_1, \ldots , f_ r is an H_1-regular sequence \Rightarrow f_1, \ldots , f_ r is a quasi-regular sequence.

Proof. Since we may check exactness at stalks, a sequence f_1, \ldots , f_ r is a regular sequence if and only if the maps

f_ i : \mathcal{O}_{X, x}/(f_1, \ldots , f_{i - 1}) \longrightarrow \mathcal{O}_{X, x}/(f_1, \ldots , f_{i - 1})

are injective for all x \in X. In other words, the image of the sequence f_1, \ldots , f_ r in the ring \mathcal{O}_{X, x} is a regular sequence for all x \in X. The other types of regularity can be checked stalkwise as well (details omitted). Hence the implications follow from More on Algebra, Lemmas 15.30.2, 15.30.3, and 15.30.6. \square
