Lemma 72.12.3. Let $k$ be a field. Let $X$, $Y$ be algebraic spaces over $k$. Assume $X$ is geometrically connected over $k$. Then the projection morphism
induces a bijection between connected components.
Lemma 72.12.3. Let $k$ be a field. Let $X$, $Y$ be algebraic spaces over $k$. Assume $X$ is geometrically connected over $k$. Then the projection morphism
induces a bijection between connected components.
Proof. Let $y \in |Y|$ be represented by a morphism $\mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(K) \to Y$ where $K$ is a field. The fibre of $|X \times _ k Y| \to |Y|$ over $y$ is the image of $|X_ K| \to |X \times _ k Y|$ by Properties of Spaces, Lemma 66.4.3. Thus these fibres are connected by our assumption that $X$ is geometrically connected. By Morphisms of Spaces, Lemma 67.6.6 the map $|p|$ is open. Thus we may apply Topology, Lemma 5.7.6 to conclude. $\square$
