Coincidence locus of two scheme morphisms

For
morphisms
f
,
g
:
X
→
Y
over
a
base
S
, their
scheme
-theoretic
coincidence
locus is the fibre product
Eq
(
f
,
g
)
=
X
×
(
f
,
g
)
,
Y
×
S
Y
,
Δ
Y
/
S
Y
.

It is the
equalizer
of
f
and
g
, hence is universal among subschemes on which they agree. It is locally closed because every
diagonal
is an
immersion
, and closed when
Y
→
S
is separated.
