Lemma 76.48.8. Let S be a scheme. Let

\xymatrix{ X \ar[rr]_ f \ar[rd] & & Y \ar[ld] \\ & Z }

be a commutative diagram of morphisms of algebraic spaces over S. Assume Y \to Z is smooth and X \to Z is a local complete intersection morphism. Then f : X \to Y is a local complete intersection morphism.

Proof. Choose a scheme W and a surjective étale morphism W \to Z. Choose a scheme V and a surjective étale morphism V \to W \times _ Z Y. Choose a scheme U and a surjective étale morphism U \to V \times _ Y X. Then U \to W is a local complete intersection morphism of schemes and V \to W is a smooth morphism of schemes. By the result for schemes (More on Morphisms, Lemma 37.62.10) we conclude that U \to V is a local complete intersection morphism. By definition this means that f is a local complete intersection morphism. \square
