Lemma 31.11.10. Let X be a locally Noetherian integral scheme with generic point \eta . Let \mathcal{F} be a nonzero coherent \mathcal{O}_ X-module. The following are equivalent

  1. \mathcal{F} is torsion free,

  2. \eta is the only associated prime of \mathcal{F},

  3. \eta is in the support of \mathcal{F} and \mathcal{F} has property (S_1), and

  4. \eta is in the support of \mathcal{F} and \mathcal{F} has no embedded associated prime.

Proof. This is a translation of More on Algebra, Lemma 15.22.8 into the language of schemes. We omit the translation. \square
