Lemma 87.10.3. Let X be an affine formal algebraic space over a scheme S.

  1. If X is Noetherian, then X is adic*.

  2. If X is adic*, then X is adic.

  3. If X is adic, then X is weakly adic.

  4. If X is weakly adic, then X is classical.

  5. If X is weakly adic, then X is countably indexed.

  6. If X is countably indexed, then X is McQuillan.

Proof. Statements (1), (2), (3), and (4) follow by writing X = \text{Spf}(A) and where A is a weakly admissible (hence complete) linearly topologized ring and using the implications between the various types of such rings discussed in Section 87.7.

Proof of (5). By definition there exists a weakly adic topological ring A such that X = \mathop{\mathrm{colim}}\nolimits \mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(A/I) where the colimit is over the ideals of definition of A. As A is weakly adic, there exits in particular a countable fundamental system I_\lambda of open ideals, see Definition 87.7.1. Then X = \mathop{\mathrm{colim}}\nolimits \mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(A/I_ n) by definition of \text{Spf}(A). Thus X is countably indexed.

Proof of (6). Write X = \mathop{\mathrm{colim}}\nolimits X_ n for some system X_1 \to X_2 \to X_3 \to \ldots of thickenings of affine schemes over S. Then

A = \mathop{\mathrm{lim}}\nolimits \Gamma (X_ n, \mathcal{O}_{X_ n})

surjects onto each \Gamma (X_ n, \mathcal{O}_{X_ n}) because the transition maps are surjections as the morphisms X_ n \to X_{n + 1} are closed immersions. Hence X is McQuillan. \square
