‣ HomalgMap( mat, M, N ) | ( operation ) |
Returns: a homalg map
This constructor returns a map (homomorphism) of finitely presented modules. It is represented by the homalg matrix mat relative to the current set of generators of the source homalg module M and target module N. Unless the source module is free and given on free generators the returned map will cautiously be indicated using parenthesis: homomorphism
. To verify if the result is indeed a well defined map use IsMorphism (homalg: IsMorphism). If the presentations of the source or/and target module are altered after the map was constructed, a new adapted representation matrix of the map is automatically computed whenever needed. For this the internal transition matrices of the modules are used. If source and target are identical objects, and only then, the map is created as a selfmap (endomorphism). homalg uses the so-called associative convention for maps. This means that maps of left modules are applied from the right, whereas maps of right modules from the left.
