Lemma 70.11.1. Let S be a scheme. Let f : X \to Y be an affine morphism of algebraic spaces over S. If Y quasi-compact and quasi-separated, then X is a directed limit X = \mathop{\mathrm{lim}}\nolimits X_ i with each X_ i affine and of finite presentation over Y.

Proof. Consider the quasi-coherent \mathcal{O}_ Y-module \mathcal{A} = f_*\mathcal{O}_ X. By Lemma 70.9.4 we can write \mathcal{A} = \mathop{\mathrm{colim}}\nolimits \mathcal{A}_ i as a directed colimit of finitely presented \mathcal{O}_ Y-algebras \mathcal{A}_ i. Set X_ i = \underline{\mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}}_ Y(\mathcal{A}_ i), see Morphisms of Spaces, Definition 67.20.8. By construction X_ i \to Y is affine and of finite presentation and X = \mathop{\mathrm{lim}}\nolimits X_ i. \square
