The category of schemes #

A scheme is a locally ringed space such that every point is contained in some open set where there is an isomorphism of presheaves between the restriction to that open set, and the structure sheaf of Spec R, for some commutative ring R.

A morphism of schemes is just a morphism of the underlying locally ringed spaces.

We define Scheme as an X : LocallyRingedSpace, along with a proof that every point has an open neighbourhood U so that the restriction of X to U is isomorphic, as a locally ringed space, to Spec.toLocallyRingedSpace.obj (op R) for some R : CommRingCat.
