Comodules are algebraic structures that generalize the concept of modules over a ring, specifically in the context of coalgebras. They are equipped with a coaction, which allows them to be viewed as 'modules' for a coalgebra, enabling a dual relationship between the structures. This concept is crucial when studying Hopf algebras and their representations, particularly in how they interact with other algebraic structures.
congrats on reading the definition of Comodules. now let's actually learn it.
