Lemma 87.4.3. Let R be a topological ring. Let M be a linearly topologized R-module. Let N \subset M be a submodule. Then
0 \to N^\wedge \to M^\wedge \to (M/N)^\wedge is exact, and
N^\wedge is the closure of the image of N \to M^\wedge .

Proof. Let M_\lambda , \lambda \in \Lambda be a fundamental system of open submodules. Then N \cap M_\lambda is a fundamental system of open submodules of N and M_\lambda + N/N is a fundamental system of open submodules of M/N. Thus we see that (1) follows from the exactness of the sequences
and the fact that taking limits commutes with limits. The second statement follows from this and the fact that N \to N^\wedge has dense image and that the kernel of M^\wedge \to (M/N)^\wedge is closed. \square
