Definition 87.26.1. Let $S$ be a scheme. A morphism of formal algebraic spaces over $S$ is called a monomorphism if it is an injective map of sheaves.
87.26 Monomorphisms
Here is the definition.
An example is the following. Let $X$ be an algebraic space and let $T \subset |X|$ be a closed subset. Then the morphism $X_{/T} \to X$ from the formal completion of $X$ along $T$ to $X$ is a monomorphism. In particular, monomorphisms of formal algebraic spaces are in general not representable.
Lemma 87.26.2. The composition of two monomorphisms is a monomorphism.
Proof. Omitted. $\square$
Lemma 87.26.3. A base change of a monomorphism is a monomorphism.
Proof. Omitted. $\square$
Lemma 87.26.4. Let $S$ be a scheme. Let $f : X \to Y$ be a morphism of formal algebraic spaces over $S$. The following are equivalent
$f$ is a monomorphism,
for every scheme $T$ and morphism $T \to Y$ the projection $X \times _ Y T \to T$ is a monomorphism of formal algebraic spaces,
for every affine scheme $T$ and morphism $T \to Y$ the projection $X \times _ Y T \to T$ is a monomorphism of formal algebraic spaces,
there exists a covering $\{ Y_ j \to Y\} $ as in Definition 87.11.1 such that each $X \times _ Y Y_ j \to Y_ j$ is a monomorphism of formal algebraic spaces, and
there exists a family of morphisms $\{ Y_ j \to Y\} $ such that $\coprod Y_ j \to Y$ is a surjection of sheaves on $(\mathit{Sch}/S)_{fppf}$ such that each $X \times _ Y Y_ j \to Y_ j$ is a monomorphism for all $j$,
there exists a morphism $Z \to Y$ of formal algebraic spaces which is representable by algebraic spaces, surjective, flat, and locally of finite presentation such that $X \times _ Y Z \to X$ is a monomorphism, and
add more here.
Proof. Omitted. $\square$
