Definition 3: An algebraic variety over k is a scheme X with a morphism f : X → Spec k that is locally of finite type, quasicompact, and whose total space is reduced.

    Theorem 2.2 (forward direction): An affine algebraic variety X over k is canonically isomorphic to Spec Γ(X, ⊤), with reduced and finite-type global sections.

    Theorem 2.2 (backward direction): For any finitely generated reduced k-algebra A, the affine scheme Spec A is an algebraic variety over k.

    Theorem 2.2 (full characterisation): A scheme over k is an affine algebraic variety iff it is Spec A for a finitely generated reduced k-algebra A.

    Lemma 2 (part 1): A closed subscheme of an affine scheme is affine.

    Lemma 2 (part 2): A closed immersion into an affine scheme induces a surjection on global sections.

    Lemma 2 (combined): A closed subscheme of an affine scheme is affine and the closed immersion is surjective on global sections.

    Corollary 2: A reduced closed subscheme of an algebraic variety is again an algebraic variety (with composed structure map to Spec k).

    Theorem 2.3 (Hilbert basis): The polynomial ring k[x₁, …, xₙ] over a field is Noetherian.
