Exercise 111.34.11. Let A \to B be a finite type ring map. Suppose that \mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(B) \to \mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(A) factors through a closed immersion \mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(B) \to \mathbf{P}^ n_ A for some n. Prove that A \to B is a finite ring map, i.e., that B is finite as an A-module. Hint: if A is Noetherian (please just assume this) you can argue using that H^ i(Z, \mathcal{O}_ Z) for i \in \mathbf{Z} is a finite A-module for every closed subscheme Z \subset \mathbf{P}^ n_ A.
