#R  IsAlgebraGeneralMappingByImagesDefaultRep
##
##  is a default representation of algebra general mappings between two
##  algebras $A$ and $B$ where $F$ is equal to the left acting
##  domain of $A$ and of $B$.
##
##  Algebra generators of $A$ and $B$ images are stored in the attribute
##  `MappingGeneratorsImages'.
##
##  The general mapping is defined as the closure of the relation that joins
##  the $i$-th generator of $A$ and the $i$-th generator of $B$
##  w.r.t. linearity and multiplication.
##
##  It is handled using the attribute `AsLinearGeneralMappingByImages'.

##      basis of the domain on that the source acts
##
##  `operation'
##      the function via that the source acts
##
##  Images can be computed by the action, w.r.t. the basis `basisImage'.

##
##  `basisImage'
##      basis of the image
##
##  `preimagesBasisImage'
##      list of preimages of the basis vectors of `basisImage'.
##
##  These components are computed as soon as they are needed.
##
##  Note that we cannot use the attribute `AsLinearGeneralMappingByImages'
##  because the source may be infinite dimensional, i.e., we cannot write
##  down the left module general mapping.

##  Construct the free (associative) algebra $F$ on generators of <A>,
