Noetherian approximation of algebraic spaces and stacks
Abstract
We show that every scheme/algebraic space/stack that is quasi-compact with quasi-finite diagonal can be approximated by a noetherian scheme/algebraic space/stack. More generally, we show that any stack which is etale-locally a global quotient stack can be approximated. Examples of applications are generalizations of Chevalley's, Serre's and Zariski's theorems and Chow's lemma to the non-noetherian setting. We also show that every quasi-compact algebraic stack with quasi-finite diagonal has a finite generically flat cover by a scheme.

39 pages; complete overhaul of paper; generalized results and simplified proofs (no groupoid-calculations); added more applications and appendices with standard results on constructible properties and limits for stacks; generalized Thm C (no finite presentation hypothesis); some minor changes in 2,1-2.8, 8.2, 8.8 and 8.9; final version
