1. (mathematics) The most general bilinear operation in various contexts (as with vectors, matrices, tensors, vector spaces, algebras, topological vector spaces, modules, and so on), denoted by ⊗.

     Linear Transformations on Tensor Products of Vector Spaces
     [...]
     Proposition 16. Let V and W be finite dimensional vector spaces over the field F with bases ${\displaystyle v_{1},...,v_{n}}$ and ${\displaystyle w_{1},...,w_{m}}$ respectively. Then ${\displaystyle V\otimes _{F}W}$ is a vector space over F of dimension nm with basis ${\displaystyle v_{i}\otimes w_{j}}$, ${\displaystyle 1\leq i\leq n}$ and ${\displaystyle 1\leq j\leq m}$.

     [The tensor product] ${\displaystyle U\otimes V}$ is the span of ${\displaystyle \{u\otimes v:u\in U,v\in V\}}$
         modulo the relations
          ${\displaystyle {\begin{cases}\cdot \ u\otimes (v+v')=u\otimes v+u\otimes v'\\\cdot \ (u+u')\otimes v=u\otimes v+u'\otimes v\\\cdot \ (\lambda u)\otimes v=\lambda (u\otimes v)=u\otimes (\lambda v)\end{cases}}}$
