Lemma 10.163.6. Let \varphi : R \to S be a ring map. Assume

  1. R is Noetherian,

  2. S is Noetherian

  3. \varphi is flat,

  4. the fibre rings S \otimes _ R \kappa (\mathfrak p) are reduced,

  5. R is reduced.

Then S is reduced.

Proof. For Noetherian rings reduced is the same as having properties (S_1) and (R_0), see Lemma 10.157.3. Thus we know R and the fibre rings have these properties. Hence we may apply Lemmas 10.163.4 and 10.163.5 and we see that S is (S_1) and (R_0), in other words reduced by Lemma 10.157.3 again. \square
