Lemma 87.4.11. Let A \to B be a continuous map of linearly topologized rings. Let I \subset A be an ideal. The closure of IB is the kernel of B \to B \widehat{\otimes }_ A A/I.

Proof. Let J_\mu be a fundamental system of open ideals of B. The closure of IB is \bigcap (IB + J_\lambda ) by Lemma 87.4.2. Let I_\mu be a fundamental system of open ideals in A. Then

B \widehat{\otimes }_ A A/I = \mathop{\mathrm{lim}}\nolimits (B/J_\lambda \otimes _ A A/(I_\mu + I)) = \mathop{\mathrm{lim}}\nolimits B/(J_\lambda + I_\mu B + I B)

Since A \to B is continuous, for every \lambda there is a \mu such that I_\mu B \subset J_\lambda , see discussion in Example 87.4.1. Hence the limit can be written as \mathop{\mathrm{lim}}\nolimits B/(J_\lambda + IB) and the result is clear. \square
