= Pseudo-isomorphic
{synonym}
A homomorphism between finitely generated one-variable <Iwasawa modules> is a pseudo-isomorphism if its kernel and cokernel are finite. Finite errors do not change the <Iwasawa-module rank> or the <characteristic ideal> of a torsion module. They can still change its integral structure, so a <pseudo-isomorphism> is weaker than an <isomorphism>.
