Module homomorphism

In algebra, a module homomorphism is a function between modules that preserves the module structures. Explicitly, if M and N are left modules over a ring R, then a function is called an R-module homomorphism or an R-linear map if for any x, y in M and r in R, In other words, f is a group homomorphism (for the underlying additive groups) that commutes with scalar multiplication. If M, N are right R-modules, then the second condition is replaced with The preimage of the zero element under f is called the kernel of f. The set of all module homomorphisms from M to N is denoted by . It is an abelian group (under pointwise addition) but is not necessarily a module unless R is commutative. The composition of module homomorphisms is again a module homomorphism, and the identity map on a module is a module homomorphism. Thus, all the (say left) modules together with all the module homomorphisms between them form the category of modules. (Wikipedia).

Homomorphisms in abstract algebra

In this video we add some more definition to our toolbox before we go any further in our study into group theory and abstract algebra. The definition at hand is the homomorphism. A homomorphism is a function that maps the elements for one group to another whilst maintaining their structu

Homomorphisms (Abstract Algebra)

A homomorphism is a function between two groups. It's a way to compare two groups for structural similarities. Homomorphisms are a powerful tool for studying and cataloging groups. Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss new lessons from Socratica: http://bit.ly/1ixuu9W ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ W

Group Homomorphisms - Abstract Algebra

A group homomorphism is a function between two groups that identifies similarities between them. This essential tool in abstract algebra lets you find two groups which are identical (but may not appear to be), only similar, or completely different from one another. Homomorphisms will be

Homomorphisms in abstract algebra examples

Yesterday we took a look at the definition of a homomorphism. In today's lecture I want to show you a couple of example of homomorphisms. One example gives us a group, but I take the time to prove that it is a group just to remind ourselves of the properties of a group. In this video th

Isomorphisms in abstract algebra

In this video I take a look at an example of a homomorphism that is both onto and one-to-one, i.e both surjective and injection, which makes it a bijection. Such a homomorphism is termed an isomorphism. Through the example, I review the construction of Cayley's tables for integers mod 4

RNT1.3. Ring Homomorphisms

Ring Theory: We define ring homomorphisms, ring isomorphisms, and kernels. These will be used to draw an analogue to the connections in group theory between group homomorphisms, normal subgroups, and quotient groups.

Gregory Henselman-Petrusek (9/28/22): Saecular persistence

Homology with field coefficients has become a mainstay of modern TDA, thanks in part to structure theorems which decompose the corresponding persistence modules. This naturally begs the question -- what of integer coefficients? Or homotopy? We introduce saecular persistence, a categoric

Splitting Homomorphism of R-Modules

A splitting, or section, is a homomorphism from the quotient module to the original module that gives a representative for each coset. If we have a splitting, we can prove that the module is isomorphic to a direct sum! This video is an explanation of how the splitting leads to an isomorphi
