Lemma 98.16.2. Let S be a locally Noetherian scheme. Let a : F \to G be a transformation of functors (\mathit{Sch}/S)_{fppf}^{opp} \to \textit{Sets}. Assume that
a is injective,
F satisfies axioms [0], [1], [2], [4], and [5],
\mathcal{O}_{S, s} is a G-ring for all finite type points s of S,
G is an algebraic space locally of finite type over S,
Then F is an algebraic space.
Proof.
By Lemma 98.8.1 the functor G satisfies [3]. As F \to G is injective, we conclude that F also satisfies [3]. Moreover, as F \to G is injective, we see that given schemes U, V and morphisms U \to F and V \to F, then U \times _ F V = U \times _ G V. Hence \Delta : F \to F \times F is representable (by schemes) as this holds for G by assumption. Thus Proposition 98.16.1 applies1.
