Bases of dual vector spaces #
The dual space of an $R$-module $M$ is the $R$-module of $R$-linear maps $M \to R$. This file concerns bases on dual vector spaces.
Main definitions #
- Bases:
Basis.toDual
produces the mapM →ₗ[R] Dual R M
associated to a basis for anR
-moduleM
.Basis.toDualEquiv
is the equivalenceM ≃ₗ[R] Dual R M
associated to a finite basis.Basis.dualBasis

.Module.DualBases e ε
is the proposition that the familiese
of vectors andε
of dual vectors have the characteristic properties of a basis and a dual.
