TakeThe global regular functions on projective space give , on which the Absolute Frobenius morphism is the identity. On the standard affine line , however, its map on functions is , which is not surjective. Thus is not an isomorphism of schemes.
Choose the rational closed point given by . The affine formula for a fibre product of schemes gives its scheme-theoretic fiber:This is the Fibre of absolute Frobenius over a rational point of the affine line: it is a one-point, length- nonreduced scheme, rather than a reduced point.
