Purely inseparable ring homomorphisms #

In this file we define purely inseparable ring homomorphisms and show their meta properties.

Since purely inseparable is mainly used for fields, we cannot prove many general ring hom properties. E.g. we can't prove StableUnderComposition IsPurelyInseparable, since IsPurelyInseparable.trans requires the involved rings to be fields.

def RingHom.IsPurelyInseparable {F : Type u} {E : Type v} [CommRing F] [CommRing E] (f : F →+* E) :

A ring homomorphism f : F →+* E is purely inseparable if E is purely inseparable as an F-algebra.

Instances For

    The identity of a ring is purely inseparable.

    Composition of purely inseparable ring homomorphisms between fields is purely inseparable.
