Flat modules #

A module M over a commutative ring R is flat if for all finitely generated ideals I of R, the canonical map I ⊗ M →ₗ M is injective.

This is equivalent to the claim that for all injective R-linear maps f : M₁ → M₂ the induced map M₁ ⊗ M → M₂ ⊗ M is injective. See https://stacks.math.columbia.edu/tag/00HD.

Main declaration #

Module.Flat: the predicate asserting that an R-module M is flat.
