Lemma 10.73.1. Given a flat ring map R \to R', an R-module M, and an R'-module N' the natural map

\mathop{\mathrm{Ext}}\nolimits ^ i_{R'}(M \otimes _ R R', N') \to \text{Ext}^ i_ R(M, N')

is an isomorphism for i \geq 0.

Proof. Choose a free resolution F_\bullet of M. Since R \to R' is flat we see that F_\bullet \otimes _ R R' is a free resolution of M \otimes _ R R' over R'. The statement is that the map

\mathop{\mathrm{Hom}}\nolimits _{R'}(F_\bullet \otimes _ R R', N') \to \mathop{\mathrm{Hom}}\nolimits _ R(F_\bullet , N')

induces an isomorphism on homology groups, which is true because it is an isomorphism of complexes by Lemma 10.14.3. \square
