Determinants in free (finite) modules #
Quite a lot of our results on determinants (that you might know in vector spaces) will work for all free (finite) modules over any commutative ring.
Main results #
LinearMap.det_zero''
: The determinant of the constant zero map is zero, in a finite free nontrivial module.
