Dimension of vector spaces

In this file we provide results about Module.rank and Module.finrank of vector spaces over division rings.

Main statements

For vector spaces (i.e. modules over a field), we have

• rank_quotient_add_rank_of_divisionRing: if V₁ is a submodule of V, then Module.rank (V/V₁) + Module.rank V₁ = Module.rank V.
• rank_range_add_rank_ker: the rank-nullity theorem.

See also Mathlib/LinearAlgebra/Dimension/ErdosKaplansky.lean for the Erdős-Kaplansky theorem.

If a vector space has a finite dimension, the index set of Basis.ofVectorSpace is finite.

This is mostly an auxiliary lemma for Submodule.rank_sup_add_rank_inf_eq.
