NoZeroSMulDivisors

(R : Type u_4) → (M : Type u_5) → [Zero R] → [Zero M] → [SMul R M] → Prop

NoZeroSMulDivisors R M states that a scalar multiple is 0 only if either argument is 0. This is a version of saying that M is torsion free, without assuming R is zero-divisor free. The main application of NoZeroSMulDivisors R M, when M is a module, is the result smul_eq_zero: a scalar multiple is 0 iff either argument is 0. It is a generalization of the NoZeroDivisors class to heterogeneous multiplication.
