Lemma 87.31.2. Let $S$ be a scheme. Let $f : X \to Y$ be a morphism of formal algebraic spaces over $S$. The following are equivalent

1. $f$ is proper,

2. for every scheme $Z$ and morphism $Z \to Y$ the base change $Z \times _ Y X \to Z$ of $f$ is proper,

3. for every affine scheme $Z$ and every morphism $Z \to Y$ the base change $Z \times _ Y X \to Z$ of $f$ is proper,

4. for every affine scheme $Z$ and every morphism $Z \to Y$ the formal algebraic space $Z \times _ Y X$ is an algebraic space proper over $Z$,

5. there exists a covering $\{ Y_ j \to Y\}$ as in Definition 87.11.1 such that the base change $Y_ j \times _ Y X \to Y_ j$ is proper for all $j$.
