Tensor product of vector spaces

Let be a field, and let be -vector spaces. Let be the -vector space generated by all symbols (with , we write the basis elements as ). Let be the -linear subspace of generated by all elements of the form

  1. ,
  2. .

Then the residue class space is called the tensor product of the , . It is denoted by
