This entry is about a section of the text

A finite limit of k-formal schemes is k-formal. The category of k-formal schemes has arbitrary products.

A formal k-scheme is called local k-scheme if it is the formal spectrum of a local ring (=has a unique maximal ideal).

Any formal k-scheme is a coproduct of local k-schemes (Demazure, p.15).
