double module
An Abelian group that is a left module over a ring
and a right module over a ring
, and is such that
for all
,
,
. One says that this is the situation
, or that
is an
-bimodule. The bimodule
may be regarded as a left
-module, where
is the opposite ring (dually isomorphic, anti-isomorphic) to
, while
denotes the tensor product over the ring of integers, and
. For every left
-module
one has the situation
, where
is the ring of endomorphisms of
. Any ring
can be given the natural structure of an
-bimodule.
Comments
A bimodule morphism is a mapping from a bimodule into a bimodule
that is left
-linear and right
-linear. The category of
-bimodules with bimodule morphisms is a Grothendieck category.
The centre of an -bimodule (also called an
-bimodule)
is defined to be the set
. Clearly
is a two-sided
-module.
