A free module ( F ) with basis ( {e_i} ) means every element is a unique finite linear combination ( \sum r_i e_i ). Over commutative rings, the rank of a free module is well-defined if the ring has IBN (invariant basis number) — all fields, ( \mathbb{Z} ), and commutative rings have IBN.

This works for finite sums. For infinite internal direct sums, require that each element is a finite sum from the submodules. Part III: Free Modules (Problems 21–35) 5. Basis and Rank Typical Problem: Determine whether a given set is a basis for a free ( R )-module. Dummit And Foote Solutions Chapter 10.zip

( \text{Hom}_R(M,N) ) is only an abelian group, not an ( R )-module, because ( r(f(m)) ) vs ( f(rm) ) conflict. 8. Exact Sequences and Splitting Typical Problem: Prove that ( 0 \to A \xrightarrow{\alpha} B \xrightarrow{\beta} C \to 0 ) splits if and only if there exists a homomorphism ( \gamma: C \to B ) such that ( \beta \circ \gamma = \text{id}_C ). A free module ( F ) with basis

Suppose ( r(\overline{m}) = 0 ) in ( M/M_{\text{tor}} ) with ( r \neq 0 ). Then ( rm \in M_{\text{tor}} ), so ( s(rm)=0 ) for some nonzero ( s ). Then ( (sr)m = 0 ) with ( sr \neq 0 ), implying ( m \in M_{\text{tor}} ), so ( \overline{m} = 0 ). For infinite internal direct sums, require that each
