Direct sum of modules

In abstract algebra, the direct sum is a construction which combines several modules into a new, larger module. The direct sum of modules is the smallest module which contains the given modules as submodules with no "unnecessary" constraints, making it an example of a coproduct. Contrast with the direct product, which is the dual notion. The most familiar examples of this construction occur when considering vector spaces (modules over a field) and abelian groups (modules over the ring Z of integers). The construction may also be extended to cover Banach spaces and Hilbert spaces. See the article decomposition of a module for a way to write a module as a direct sum of submodules. (Wikipedia).

Direct Products of Groups (Abstract Algebra)

The direct product is a way to combine two groups into a new, larger group. Just as you can factor integers into prime numbers, you can break apart some groups into a direct product of simpler groups. Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss new lessons from Socratica: http://bit.ly/1ixuu

Direct Sum

Have you ever wondered how to sum two mathematical objects in an elegant way? Then this video is for you! In this video, I define the sum of two vector spaces and show something neat: If you add two bases together, you get a basis for the direct sum! Finally, I generalize this notion to di

Rings 10 Tensor products of abelian groups

This lecture is part of an online course on rings and modules. We define tensor products of abelian groups, and calculate them for many common examples using the fact that tensor products preserve colimits. For the other lectures in the course see https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P

Product groups

Now that we have defined and understand quotient groups, we need to look at product groups. In this video I define the product of two groups as well as the group operation, proving that it is indeed a group.

We show that the generalized persistence diagram (introduced by Kim and Mémoli) encodes the bigraded Betti numbers of finite 2-parameter persistence modules. More interestingly, we show that the bigraded Betti numbers can be visually read off from the generalized persistence diagram in a m

Splitting Homomorphism of R-Modules

A splitting, or section, is a homomorphism from the quotient module to the original module that gives a representative for each coset. If we have a splitting, we can prove that the module is isomorphic to a direct sum! This video is an explanation of how the splitting leads to an isomorphi
