Lemma 37.7.6. Let
\xymatrix{ Z \ar[r]_ h \ar[d]_ f & X \ar[d]^ g \\ W \ar[r]^{h'} & Y }
be a fibre product diagram in the category of schemes with h' formally unramified. Then h is formally unramified and if W \subset W' is the universal first order thickening of W over Y, then Z = X \times _ Y W \subset X \times _ Y W' is the universal first order thickening of Z over X. In particular the canonical map f^*\mathcal{C}_{W/Y} \to \mathcal{C}_{Z/X} of Lemma 37.7.5 is surjective.
Proof.
The morphism h is formally unramified by Lemma 37.6.4. It is clear that X \times _ Y W' is a first order thickening. It is straightforward to check that it has the universal property because W' has the universal property (by mapping properties of fibre products). See Morphisms, Lemma 29.31.4 for why this implies that the map of conormal sheaves is surjective.
