Topic: names of inclusion maps
Johan Commelin (Jun 05 2020 at 09:50):
Given a bundled structure (say submodules) there are two types of inclusion maps:
If N : submodule M
, then there is a natural inclusion N →l M
(where N
is coerced to a type).
If N₁ < N₂
, then there is a natural inclusion N₁ →l N₂
(where both are coerced to a type).
How should we call these two types of maps?
This also shows up for subgroups, sub-lie-algebra, sub-algebras, subrings, sub-whatevers. So it's useful to fix some sort of convention now.
