Very weirdly I found a $hookrightarrow $ in my Algebra book just like that. Could someone please just tell me what it means? Sorry for this maybe stupid question in advance but very much appreciate your help!

    Most probably, it denotes an injective morphism.

    $Ahookrightarrow B$ primarily means the usual inclusion if $Asubseteq B$, i.e. the restriction of the identity function. More generally, it can also denote arbitrary embedding, which, in algebraic context, is usually the same as 'injective homomorphism'.
