Lemma 93.14.2. Let k be a field. Let B be a finite type k-algebra. Let J \subset B be an ideal such that \mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(B) \to \mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(k) is smooth on the complement of V(J). Let N be a finite B-module. Then there is a canonical bijection
\text{Exal}_ k(B, N) \to \text{Exal}_ k(B^ h, N^ h)
Here (B^ h, J^ h) is the henselization of (B, J) and N^ h = N \otimes _ B B^ h.
Proof.
This proof is the same as the proof of Lemma 93.12.4 but easier. We suggest the reader to skip the proof. The map is given by henselization: given 0 \to N \to C \to B \to 0 in \text{Exal}_ k(B, N) we send it to the henselization C^ h of C with respect to the inverse image J_ C \subset C of J. Compare with the proof of Lemma 93.8.8.
Since k \to B is of finite presentation the complex \mathop{N\! L}\nolimits _{B/k} can be represented by a complex N^{-1} \to N^0 where N^ i is a finite B-module, see Algebra, Section 10.134 and in particular Algebra, Lemma 10.134.2. As B is Noetherian, this means that \mathop{N\! L}\nolimits _{B/k} is pseudo-coherent. For g \in J the k-algebra B_ g is smooth and hence (\mathop{N\! L}\nolimits _{B/k})_ g = \mathop{N\! L}\nolimits _{B_ g/k} is quasi-isomorphic to a finite projective B-module sitting in degree 0. Thus \text{Ext}^ i_ B(\mathop{N\! L}\nolimits _{B/k}, N)_ g = 0 for i \geq 1 and any B-module N. Finally, we have
\begin{align*} \text{Ext}^1_{B^ h}(\mathop{N\! L}\nolimits _{B^ h/k}, N^ h) & = \text{Ext}^1_{B^ h}(\mathop{N\! L}\nolimits _{B/k} \otimes _ B B^ h, N \otimes _ B B^ h) \\ & = \text{Ext}^1_ B(\mathop{N\! L}\nolimits _{B/k}, N) \otimes _ B B^ h \\ & = \text{Ext}^1_ B(\mathop{N\! L}\nolimits _{B/k}, N) \end{align*}
The first equality by More on Algebra, Lemma 15.33.8 (or rather its analogue for henselizations of pairs). The second by More on Algebra, Lemma 15.99.2. The third because \text{Ext}^1_ B(\mathop{N\! L}\nolimits _{B/k}, N) is J-power torsion, the map B \to B^ h is flat and induces an isomorphism B/J \to B^ h/JB^ h (More on Algebra, Lemma 15.12.2), and More on Algebra, Lemma 15.89.3. This concludes the proof by the description of \text{Exal}_ A(B, N) as \text{Ext}^1_ B(\mathop{N\! L}\nolimits _{B/A}, N) given just above Lemma 93.12.4.
