The pairing between the exterior power of the dual and the exterior power #
We construct the pairing
exteriorPower.pairingDual : ⋀[R]^n (Module.Dual R M) →ₗ[R] (Module.Dual R (⋀[R]^n M))
.
The linear map from the n
th exterior power to the n
th tensor power obtained by
MultilinearMap.alternatization
.

If a R
-module M
has a family of vectors x : ι → M
and linear maps f : ι → M
such that f i (x j)
is 1
or 0
depending on i = j
or i ≠ j
, then if ι
has
a linear order, then a similar property regarding pairingDual R M n
applies to the family of vectors indexed
by Fin n ↪o ι
in ⋀[R]^n M
and in ⋀[R]^n (Module.Dual R M)
that are obtained
by taking exterior products of the x i
and the f j
. (This shall be used in order
to construct a basis of ⋀[R]^n M
when M
is a free module.)
