algebra.​category.​Module.​kernels

The concrete (co)kernels in the category of modules are (co)kernels in the categorical sense.

def Module.​kernel_cone {R : Type u} [ring R] {M N : Module R} (f : M N) :

The kernel cone induced by the concrete kernel.

Equations

The kernel of a linear map is a kernel in the categorical sense.

Equations
def Module.​cokernel_cocone {R : Type u} [ring R] {M N : Module R} (f : M N) :

The cokernel cocone induced by the projection onto the quotient.

Equations

The projection onto the quotient is a cokernel in the categorical sense.

Equations

The category of R-modules has kernels, given by the inclusion of the kernel submodule.

Equations
