Duality over a finite group algebra #
For a finite group G and a commutative semiring R, the group algebra R[G] is a symmetric
Frobenius algebra. Taking the coefficient at the identity identifies the R[G]-linear dual
Hom_{R[G]}(M, R[G]) with the R-linear dual Hom_R(M, R). The action on the latter is the
contragredient action: op a sends ψ to the functional m ↦ ψ(a • m).
This file constructs that equivalence explicitly and proves its naturality under precomposition. The range statement is the bridge used to express an Auslander--Reiten transpose through an ordinary base-ring dual. The contragredient action and precomposition need only semiring coefficients and also apply to arbitrary monoids. The range comparison uses commutative semiring coefficients; over a commutative ring, the corresponding quotient comparison is base-ring linear.
