Removing an injective kernel from a right almost-split map #
An injective kernel splits off the source of a right almost-split morphism. The induced morphism on the complementary summand is monic, right almost split, and therefore right minimal.

A right almost-split morphism with injective kernel is the direct sum of that kernel, mapped to zero, and a monic minimal right almost-split map.
