Dear Categorists,
Please help me relieve my confusion on a simple question:
to which category do multilinear maps belong?
For example, in vector spaces (k-mod)
there are the usual bijective correspondences:
X tensor Y ---> Z linear in k-mod
____________________________________
X cartesian Y ---> Z bilinear
____________________________________
X ---> Y hom Z linear in k-mod
where do the middle arrows live?
Putting Z = k , what are the categories of forms?
I can't seem to find these discussed (explicitly) anywhere?
My questions arose in thinking about a "probe and measure"
schema for investigating systems.
Thank you in advance for any kind responses.
Greatly appreciated. ....... Al
