Flat base change for sections of the structure sheaf #

Let X be a scheme over a commutative ring R, let R → R' be a ring map, and let Y = X ×_R R' be the base change, given as a pullback square H over Spec R' ⟶ Spec R, with projection g : Y ⟶ X. The sections of the structure sheaf over opens are algebras over the base ring through Scheme.baseRingToStructurePresheaf. This file records that pulling back sections along g is compatible with these base-ring maps, and packages it as an R-linear map Γ(X, W) → Γ(Y, W'), where R acts on Γ(Y, W') through R → R'.

When R → R' is flat and W is quasi-compact and quasi-separated, Mathlib's AlgebraicGeometry.isIso_pushoutSection_of_isQuasiSeparated_of_flat_right says that Γ(Y, g⁻¹ W) = R' ⊗_R Γ(X, W). This file restates it in terms of the base-ring maps, as a pushout square of commutative rings and as IsBaseChange for the linear map above.

Flat base change for sections of the structure sheaf, as a pushout square of commutative rings: for a flat ring map R → R' and a quasi-compact quasi-separated open W of X, Γ(Y, g⁻¹ W) = R' ⊗_R Γ(X, W).

Pulling back sections of the structure sheaf along the base change g, as an R-linear map. Here R and R' act on sections through Scheme.baseRingToStructurePresheaf, and R acts on the sections of Y through R → R'.
