Pairing finite group which is frequently called character pairing. Pairing In mathematics, a pairing is an "R"-bilinear map of modules, where "R" is the underlying ring. Let "R" be a commutative ring with unity, and let "M", "N" and "L" be three "R"-modules. A pairing is any "R"-bilinear map formula_1. That is, it satisfies for any formula_5 and any formula_6 and any formula_7. Or equivalently, a pairing is an "R"-linear map where formula_9 denotes the tensor product of "M" and "N". A pairing can also be considered as an "R"-linear map formula_10, which matches the first definition by setting formula_11. A
