Oct 12, 2015 at 1:53 comment added Lisa S. Thank you, t3suji, this is very helpful. Could you comment on what is the relationship between the two: is the $\mathbb{Z}_p$-module just the global sections of the scheme version? I am seeing in SGA 3, Expose II, 3.3 that the scheme version should maybe be $\mathbb{V}(e^*(\Omega^1_{\mu_p/\mathbb{Z}_p}))$, but I guess the $\mathbb{V}$ functor is parametrizing global sections of the dual of the coherent sheaf $e^*(\Omega^1_{\mu_p/\mathbb{Z}_p})$, so this must be the source of the bad behavior of global sections with respect to base change beyond the smooth case?
Oct 12, 2015 at 1:04 comment added t3suji On the other hand, if you want your Lie algebra to be a scheme over $\mathbb Z_p$, it is supposed to commute with the base change, but there is no contradiction: the Lie algebra of $\mathbb{G}m$ is the constant scheme with one-dimensional fiber, and it contains a non-flat subscheme sitting over the closed point.
Oct 12, 2015 at 1:02 comment added t3suji Well, what happens depends on the kind of object you want the Lie algebra to be. Most of your question is written for `naive' object, where you expect the Lie algebra to be a $\mathbb{Z}_p$-module. In this setup, the formation of Lie algebra does not commute with base change (unless the group is smooth).
