Bases in a vector space

This file provides results for bases of a vector space.

Some of these results should be merged with the results on free modules. We state these results in a separate file to the results on modules to avoid an import cycle.

Main statements

• Basis.ofVectorSpace states that every vector space has a basis.
• Module.Free.of_divisionRing states that every vector space is a free module.
