Example 72.6.11. Let k be a field. Let
be the union of the coordinate axes in \mathbf{A}^2_ k. Denote \Delta : U \to U \times _ k U the diagonal and \Delta ' : U \to U \times _ k U the map u \mapsto (u, \sigma (u)) where \sigma : U \to U, (x, y) \mapsto (y, x) is the automorphism flipping the coordinate axes. Set
where 0_ U \in U is the origin. It is easy to see that R is an étale equivalence relation on U. The quotient X = U/R is an algebraic space. The morphism U \to \mathbf{A}^1_ k, (x, y) \mapsto x + y is R-invariant and hence defines a morphism
This morphism is a universal homeomorphism and an isomorphism over \mathbf{A}^1_ k \setminus \{ 0\} . It follows that X is integral and Noetherian. Exactly as in Example 72.6.10 the reader shows that \text{Cl}(X) = \mathbf{Z}/2\mathbf{Z} with generator corresponding to the unique closed point x \in |X| mapping to 0 \in \mathbf{A}^1_ k. However, in this case the henselian local ring of X at x isn't a domain, as it is the henselization of \mathcal{O}_{U, 0_ U}.
