Is there a name for this map induced by bilinear forms?
A bilinear form on $V$ (if non-degenerate) lets you identify $V$ with $V^\star$:
$v \mapsto \langle v, \cdot \rangle$
In this case, your map is just a contraction of the identity map on $V^\star \oti …

Do these matrix rings have non-zero elements that are neither units nor zero divisors?
First, a disclaimer: This is a repost of a question I asked on stackexchange (no answer there).
Let $R$ be a commutative ring (with $1$) and $R^{n \times n}$ be the ring of $n \times n$ matrices with …

When does End(M) consist entirely of zero, zero divisors, and units?
Let $R$ be a commutative ring (with $1$) such that every non-zero divisor in $R$ is a unit (see Rings in which every non-unit is a zero divisor for various stabs at what these are called). Let $M$ be …

Given 2 towers of fields, when are these fields isomorphic?
Let $F_0 \subset F_1 \subset F_2 \subset \cdots$ and $K_0 \subset K_1 \subset K_2 \subset \cdots$ be two towers of fields. Also, let $F = \cup_{i=0}^\infty F_i$ and $K = \cup_{i=0}^\infty K_i$.
Now s …
