Lemma 33.36.3. Let p > 0 be a prime number. Let X be a scheme in characteristic p. Then the absolute frobenius F_ X : X \to X is a universal homeomorphism, is integral, and induces purely inseparable residue field extensions.
Proof. This follows from the corresponding results for the frobenius endomorphism F_ A : A \to A of a ring A of characteristic p > 0. See the discussion in Algebra, Section 10.46, for example Lemma 10.46.7. \square
