Translator's note. The EGA terminology uses "rare" for what modern English mathematics calls "nowhere dense," "préschéma" for what modern usage calls "scheme," and "schéma" for what modern usage calls "separated scheme." We have preserved this historical vocabulary with bracketed glosses on first occurrence per section. The list above retains EGA's term as the primary entry.
