Abstract
Let be a -coalgebra, where is a field. The category of pseudocompact left -modules is dual to both the category of discrete right -modules and to the category of left -comodules. We obtain this way two sides of a square of dualities. In this note we complete the square by introducing as fourth corner the category of pseudocompact right -contramodules. We use these dualities to extend a natural isomorphism of Takeuchi.
