A note on quasi-perfect morphisms

Timothy De Deyn, Pat Lank, Kabeer Manali-Rahul

Abstract

This note records two results concerning quasi-perfect morphisms between Noetherian algebraic spaces. First, we give a new characterization of regular Noetherian algebraic spaces as those for which blowups at closed points are quasi-perfect. Secondly, we study the local behavior of quasi-perfect proper morphisms. In particular, we show that quasi-perfectness of a proper morphism can be detected at their étale local rings, completions, and (strict) Henselizations. As a corollary, the locus of points where a proper morphism is quasi-perfect is Zariski open.
