A subscheme of a scheme 
defined by a quasi-coherent sheaf of ideals 
of the structure sheaf 
as follows: The topological space of the subscheme, 
, is the support of the quotient sheaf 
, and the structure sheaf is the restriction of 
to its support. A morphism of schemes 
is called a closed imbedding if 
is an isomorphism of 
onto some closed subscheme in 
; a closed imbedding is a monomorphism in the category of schemes. For any closed subset 
there exists a minimal closed subscheme in 
with space 
, known as the reduced closed subscheme with space 
. If 
is a subscheme of 
, then the smallest closed subscheme 
of 
containing 
is known as the (schematic) closure of the subscheme 
in 
.
