Finiteness of a ℤ-submodule read as an additive subgroup #

Submodule.toAddSubgroup is reducible and keeps the carrier set, so p and p.toAddSubgroup have the same elements and the same ℤ-module structure. Instance search is nevertheless keyed on the head symbol, so a Module.Finite ℤ p instance is never tried against the goal Module.Finite ℤ p.toAddSubgroup. This file records that transfer once, for every ℤ-submodule, rather than at each lattice presented to an API that reads additive subgroups.

Main declarations #

A finitely generated ℤ-submodule is still finitely generated when read as an additive subgroup, the two being the same type.
