Let R be a ring, and 0: R-+ S, T: R-+ T ring homomor (8, T)-bimodule M, we form the matrix ring I $ y), and look at representations of R, of the form r++ where 6 is an appropriate map R-+ M. The necessary and sufficient condition for (1) to be a ring homomorphism is that 6 be a (a, T)-derivat the bimodule M. More generally (definitions and details in Secti consider such maps in the category of K-rings for a fixed ring condition is then that 6 be a derivation annihilating K. Suppose the given homomorphisms (T and 7 of K-rings have kernels Q and 6, respectively, and we wish to know how small the kernel c of the map (1) can be made by appropriate choices of M and 6: R-+ M. Clearly we always have ab _C c _C an b. Now there exists an (8, T)-bi dule, which we shall cafi 92= l-WK’(S, T), with a universal derivation d:-+ Sz; and Lewin [8] pomts out that the desired minimal kernel c is the kernel of the map+(i 3 Under certain hypotheses he proves that the lower bound c= ob is in fact achieved by this minimal kernel.* The first author was supported by an Alfred P.
