Sep 29, 2015 at 6:48 comment added Georges Elencwajg Dear @agensky, let me be specific: I claim that neither Hartshorne nor any other algebraic geometry book alludes to Tietze's extension theorem in this context . Users are welcome to give a reference contradicting this claim :-) There have been several analogous interpolation questions on Mathematics StackExchange and they are always answered in an explicit ad hoc way, just as Chanler did in a comment to this question. I answered this question in order to show the power of this underappreciated extension result, which for example also yields a geometric proof of the Chinese Remainder Theorem.
