Lemma 10.126.11. Let R be a ring. Let I \subset R be an ideal. Let S \to S' be an R-algebra map. Assume that

  1. I is locally nilpotent,

  2. S/IS \to S'/IS' is an isomorphism,

  3. S is of finite type over R,

  4. S' of finite presentation over R, and

  5. S' is flat over R.

Then S \to S' is an isomorphism.

Proof. By Lemma 10.126.9 the map S \to S' is surjective. As I is locally nilpotent, so are the ideals IS and IS' (Lemma 10.32.3). Hence every prime ideal \mathfrak q of S contains IS and (trivially) S_\mathfrak q/IS_\mathfrak q \cong S'_\mathfrak q/IS'_\mathfrak q. Thus Lemma 10.126.10 applies and we see that S_\mathfrak q \to S'_\mathfrak q is an isomorphism for every prime \mathfrak q \subset S. It follows that S \to S' is injective for example by Lemma 10.23.1. \square
