Tensor product of modules (source code)

= Tensor product of modules
{wiki=Tensor_product_of_modules}

In algebra, the tensor product is a way to construct a new module from two given modules, effectively allowing us to "multiply" the modules together. It is particularly useful in the context of linear algebra, representation theory, and algebraic topology. \#\#\# Definition Let \\( R \\) be a ring, and let \\( M \\) and \\( N \\) be two \\( R \\)-modules.
