The torsion submodule of M: the submodule of elements killed by some non-zero-divisor of R.
This realizes Definition 39 (torsion subsheaf) on curves.
Instances For
The saturation of a submodule N ⊆ M: the preimage under M → M/N of the torsion
submodule of M/N. Realizes Definition 40 (saturation) on curves.
Instances For
A submodule is contained in its saturation.
The image of the saturation N.saturation in M/N equals the torsion submodule of M/N.
Being torsion-free is preserved under linear isomorphism.
The quotient M / N.saturation is torsion-free, by construction of the saturation.
The rank of an R-module M (Definition 41): the K-dimension of K ⊗_R M, where K is
a field over R (typically the fraction field).
Instances For
The rank is additive on short exact sequences (when K is R-flat and the middle term has
finite dimensional base-change).
Specialization of sheafRank_additive to the case where K is the fraction field of an
integral domain R, automatically supplying flatness.
The Grothendieck group K_0 of coherent sheaves on a curve, abbreviated through the abstract
construction GrothendieckGroupK0.
Instances For
A short exact sequence 0 → A → B → C → 0 induces the additivity relation
[B] = [A] + [C] in K_0.
Universal property of K_0: any short-exact-sequence-additive function ModuleCat R → G
lifts uniquely to a group homomorphism K_0(R) →+ G.
Instances For
The universal lift agrees with the original additive function on each class.
Deprecated alias for DegreeAdditivity.K0SESRelation.
Instances For
The degree of a module M over R, defined as the R-module length of M (a value in
ℕ∞). On curves this realizes the degree of a torsion coherent sheaf.
Instances For
Degree is additive on short exact sequences.
Lemma 34: degree additivity on short exact sequences 0 → E → E' → T → 0.
Degree is monotone under injective linear maps.
A surjective linear map can only decrease degree.
For finite-dimensional vector spaces over a division ring, the degree equals the dimension.
A torsion module has rank zero (its base-change to the fraction field vanishes).
A linear isomorphism transports the NoZeroSMulDivisors property along its inverse direction.
The degree of a finite torsion-free module over a Dedekind domain, defined via the determinant invertible-ideal construction.
Instances For
The torsion-free degree is invariant under linear isomorphism.
If the quotient M'/N has length one (a simple extension), then
deg(M') = deg(N) + 1.
Given a torsion quotient M'/N of length n+1 > 1, there exists an intermediate
torsion-free submodule N ≤ N' ≤ M' with N'/N simple and M'/N' of length n.
Auxiliary inductive predicate used to prove Lemma 34: for a fixed M', the relation
deg M' = deg N + k holds for every submodule N with M'/N torsion of length k.
Instances For
P_lemma34 holds for every k, proved by strong induction.
Lemma 34 (degree additivity for torsion-free modules): if M'/N is torsion of length k > 0,
then deg M' = deg N + k.
