(1) The sequence is split exact.<br />

(2) For any K the following sequence is exact<br />

0<br />

HomR(K, N)<br />

(3) For any K the following sequence is exact<br />

If the conditions are true, then the sequences (2) and (3) are split exact.<br />

Pro<strong>of</strong>. (1) ⇒ (2), (1) ⇒ (3) are clear by 3.1.14 giving that the sequences (2), (3)<br />

are split exact. (2) ⇒ (1): Let K = L, then there is a section to g. By 3.3.2 and<br />

3.1.11 the original sequence is split exact. (3) ⇒ (1): Let K = M, then there is a<br />

retraction to f. By 3.3.4 and 3.1.11 the original sequence is split exact.<br />

3.3.6. Exercise. (1) Show that the sequence<br />

0<br />

<br />

HomZ(Q/Z, Z)<br />

<br />

HomZ(Q/Z, Q)<br />

is exact, but the rightmost map is not surjective.<br />

(2) Show that the sequence<br />

0<br />

<br />

HomZ(Z/(n), Z)<br />

n <br />

HomZ(Z/(n), Z)<br />

is exact, but the rightmost map is not surjective.<br />

3.4. Exactness <strong>of</strong> Tensor<br />

and an R-module K. Then the following sequence is exact<br />

Pro<strong>of</strong>. Let K ′ be any module. By 3.3.4 it is enough to see that the sequence<br />

0<br />

<br />

HomR(L ⊗R K, K ′ )<br />

is exact. By 2.6.13 it amounts to see that the sequence<br />

0<br />

<br />

HomR(L, HomR(K, K ′ ))<br />

is exact. This follows from 3.3.3.<br />

<br />

0<br />
