Lemma 35.19.2. Let f : X \to Y be a morphism of algebraic spaces. If f is locally of finite presentation, flat, and surjective and X is regular, then Y is regular.
Proof. This lemma reduces to the following algebra statement: If A \to B is a faithfully flat, finitely presented ring homomorphism with B Noetherian and regular, then A is Noetherian and regular. We see that A is Noetherian by Algebra, Lemma 10.164.1 and regular by Algebra, Lemma 10.110.9. \square
