Example 46.4.6. Let F be a module-valued functor as in Lemma 46.4.5. It is not always the case that the two module structures on TF(B, N) agree. Here is an example. Suppose A = \mathbf{F}_ p where p is a prime. Set F(B) = B but with B-module structure given by b \cdot x = b^ px. Then TF(B, N) = N with B-module structure given by b \cdot x = b^ px for x \in N. However, the second B-module structure is given by x \cdot b = bx. Note that in this case the canonical map N \otimes _ B F(B) \to TF(B, N) is zero as raising an element n \in B[N] to the pth power is zero.
