when a scheme with an ample line bundle is projective
coreStatement for an ample line bundle L on a proper scheme X over a Noetherian ring, L^n is very ample for n sufficiently large
for n sufficiently large, higher cohomology groups of coherent sheaves twisted by L^n vanish
for n sufficiently large, the global sections of L^n give a closed immersion of X into projective space
sufficiently high tensor powers of an ample line bundle define a projective embedding
