Modules over opposite algebras #
For an R-algebra A, a module over Aᵐᵒᵖ is a right A-module. Inverse right
multiplication gives a homomorphism from Aˣ to its R-linear endomorphisms. This turns
the right action into a left action of units, as used in balanced tensor constructions.
A left A-module is also a module over the double opposite Aᵐᵒᵖᵐᵒᵖ, by TauCeti.opOpModule. This
is the form in which results about right modules, applied with Aᵐᵒᵖ in place of A, reach left
A-modules. It is not a global instance, and TauCeti.opOpSemilinearEquiv transports module
properties along the identity map.
Units of an algebra act on a right module by inverse right multiplication.
Instances For
The left action of a unit is right multiplication by its inverse.
A left A-module, seen as a module over the double opposite Aᵐᵒᵖᵐᵒᵖ.
Instances For
The action of Aᵐᵒᵖᵐᵒᵖ on a left A-module is compatible with the action of the base.
A left A-module is semilinearly identified with itself over the double opposite Aᵐᵒᵖᵐᵒᵖ.
