Torsion subgroups, products, and maps #
A subgroup of an additive commutative group consists of torsion points as soon as it is finite:
its cardinality annihilates each of its elements, so a subgroup H is contained in the
Nat.card H-torsion subgroup. For finite H this says that a subgroup with n elements is
n-torsion; for infinite H one has Nat.card H = 0 and the statement is the trivial
H ≤ A[0].
A linear map f with a left inverse up to multiplication by a nonzerodivisor a, that is
g ∘ f = a • id, reflects torsion: if f x is torsion then so is x.
Torsion also commutes with products and additive equivalences. When a ∣ b, the a-torsion
inside the b-torsion subgroup is the ambient a-torsion subgroup.
Main definitions #
TauCeti.AddSubgroup.torsionByPiEquiv: torsion of a product is the product of torsions.TauCeti.AddSubgroup.torsionByTorsionByEquiv: nested torsion fora ∣ b.AddEquiv.torsionByCongr: transport torsion along an additive equivalence.

A subgroup H consists of Nat.card H-torsion points; for finite H this is the statement
that a subgroup with n elements is n-torsion, and for infinite H it is the trivial
H ≤ A[0].
Torsion in a product of additive commutative groups is additively equivalent to the product of their torsion subgroups.

reflects torsion: an element whose image is torsion is itself torsion.
