Lemma 37.9.8. Let S be a scheme. Let X \subset X' be a first order thickening over S. Let Y be a scheme over S. Let a', b' : X' \to Y be two morphisms over S with a = a'|_ X = b'|_ X. This gives rise to a commutative diagram
\xymatrix{ X \ar[r] \ar[d]_ a & X' \ar[d]^{(b', a')} \\ Y \ar[r]^-{\Delta _{Y/S}} & Y \times _ S Y }
Since the horizontal arrows are immersions with conormal sheaves \mathcal{C}_{X/X'} and \Omega _{Y/S}, by Morphisms, Lemma 29.31.3, we obtain a map \theta : a^*\Omega _{Y/S} \to \mathcal{C}_{X/X'}. Then this \theta and the derivation D of Lemma 37.9.1 are related by Equation (37.9.1.1).
Proof.
Omitted. Hint: The equality may be checked on affine opens where it comes from the following computation. If f is a local section of \mathcal{O}_ Y, then 1 \otimes f - f \otimes 1 is a local section of \mathcal{C}_{Y/(Y \times _ S Y)} corresponding to \text{d}_{Y/S}(f). It is mapped to the local section (a')^\sharp (f) - (b')^\sharp (f) = D(f) of \mathcal{C}_{X/X'}. In other words, \theta (\text{d}_{Y/S}(f)) = D(f).
