Lemma 56.3.9. Let R be a ring. Let A and B be R-algebras. If

F : \text{Mod}_ A \longrightarrow \text{Mod}_ B

is an R-linear equivalence of categories, then there exists an isomorphism A \to B of R-algebras and an invertible B-module L such that F is isomorphic to the functor M \mapsto (M \otimes _ A B) \otimes _ B L.

Proof. We get A \to B and L from Lemma 56.3.8. To finish the proof, we need to show that the R-linearity of F forces A \to B to be an R-algebra map. We omit the details. \square
