Lemma 57.16.2. Let R \to S be a finite type flat ring map of Noetherian rings. Let \mathfrak q \subset S be a prime ideal lying over \mathfrak p \subset R. Let K \in D(S) be perfect. Let f_1, \ldots , f_ r \in \mathfrak q S_\mathfrak q be a regular sequence such that S_\mathfrak q/(f_1, \ldots , f_ r) is flat over R and such that K \otimes _ S^\mathbf {L} S_\mathfrak q is isomorphic to the Koszul complex on f_1, \ldots , f_ r. Then there exists a g \in S, g \not\in \mathfrak q such that

  1. f_1, \ldots , f_ r are the images of f'_1, \ldots , f'_ r \in S_ g,

  2. f'_1, \ldots , f'_ r form a regular sequence in S_ g,

  3. S_ g/(f'_1, \ldots , f'_ r) is flat over R,

  4. K \otimes _ S^\mathbf {L} S_ g is isomorphic to the Koszul complex on f_1, \ldots , f_ r.

Proof. We can find g \in S, g \not\in \mathfrak q with property (1) by the definition of localizations. After replacing g by gg' for some g' \in S, g' \not\in \mathfrak q we may assume (2) holds, see Algebra, Lemma 10.68.6. By Algebra, Theorem 10.129.4 we find that S_ g/(f'_1, \ldots , f'_ r) is flat over R in an open neighbourhood of \mathfrak q. Hence after once more replacing g by gg' for some g' \in S, g' \not\in \mathfrak q we may assume (3) holds as well. Finally, we get (4) for a further replacement by More on Algebra, Lemma 15.74.17. \square
