Let $X$ be an integral scheme with a generic point $\xi$.
I understand:
- For every affine open $V\subset X$, $\text{Frac}\mathcal{O}_X(V)\cong \mathcal{O}_{X,\xi}$
- For every open $U\subset X$ and $x\in X$, $\mathcal{O}_X(U)\rightarrow\mathcal{O}_{X,x}$ and $\mathcal{O}_{X,x}\rightarrow\mathcal{O}_{X,\xi}$ are injective.
- For every affine open $U\subset X$, $\mathcal{O}_X(U)=\cap_{x\in U}\mathcal{O}_{X,x}$ (regarding both sides as subrings of $\mathcal{O}_{X,\xi}$)
But in Qing Liu's "Algebraic Geometry and Arithmetic Curves" Prop. 4.18 on page 65, it is claimed that (3) is true for every open $U$ (not necessarily affine). The given reasoning is "by covering $U$ with open affine subsets".
Up until now I managed to fill in the details when such reasoning was given, but not here. What is the accurate explanation of the reduction to the affine case here?
