    Modules Notation
Click For Summary
Berrick and Keating's book describes right modules over a ring R as M_R, while left modules use a left subscript notation. The discussion seeks assistance with the LaTeX script to format left subscripts correctly. An example provided is End(M), where M is a left module over E. A solution offered is to use the command {}_EM to achieve the desired notation.

I am reading Berrick and Keating's book on rings and modules.

Berrick and Keating indicate a right module over a ring $$R$$ as $$M_R$$, but in a left module the subscript is to the left ... can someone help me with the Latex script to achieve this?

An example of "left-subscript" notation appears in the following text from Berrick and Keating's book, where they refer to End($$M$$) where $$M$$ is a left module over $$E$$.View attachment 3074
Hope someone can help?

Sure Peter, use {}_EM to produce ${}_EM$.
