Lemma 67.28.12. A closed immersion i : Z \to X is of finite presentation if and only if the associated quasi-coherent sheaf of ideals \mathcal{I} = \mathop{\mathrm{Ker}}(\mathcal{O}_ X \to i_*\mathcal{O}_ Z) is of finite type (as an \mathcal{O}_ X-module).
Proof. Let U be a scheme and let U \to X be a surjective étale morphism. By Lemma 67.28.4 we see that i' : Z \times _ X U \to U is of finite presentation if and only if i is. By Properties of Spaces, Section 66.30 we see that \mathcal{I} is of finite type if and only if \mathcal{I}|_ U = \mathop{\mathrm{Ker}}(\mathcal{O}_ U \to i'_*\mathcal{O}_{Z \times _ X U}) is. Hence the result follows from the case of schemes, see Morphisms, Lemma 29.21.7. \square
