Division (semi)rings and (semi)fields

This file introduces fields and division rings (also known as skewfields) and proves some basic statements about them. For a more extensive theory of fields, see the FieldTheory folder.

Main definitions

• DivisionSemiring: Nontrivial semiring with multiplicative inverses for nonzero elements.
• DivisionRing: Nontrivial ring with multiplicative inverses for nonzero elements.
• Semifield: Commutative division semiring.
• Field: Commutative division ring.
• IsField: Predicate on a (semi)ring that it is a (semi)field, i.e. that the multiplication is commutative, that it has more than one element and that all non-zero elements have a multiplicative inverse. In contrast to Field, which contains the data of a function associating to an element of the field its multiplicative inverse, this predicate only assumes the existence and can therefore more easily be used to e.g. transfer along ring isomorphisms.

Implementation details

By convention 0⁻¹ = 0 in a field or division ring. This is due to the fact that working with total functions has the advantage of not constantly having to check that x ≠ 0 when writing x⁻¹. With this convention in place, some statements like (a + b) * c⁻¹ = a * c⁻¹ + b * c⁻¹ still remain true, while others like the defining property a * a⁻¹ = 1 need the assumption a ≠ 0. If you are a beginner in using Lean and are confused by that, you can read more about why this convention is taken in Kevin Buzzard's blogpost

A division ring or field is an example of a GroupWithZero. If you cannot find a division ring / field lemma that does not involve +, you can try looking for a GroupWithZero lemma instead.

def NNRat.castRec {K : Type u_3} [NatCast K] [Div K] (q : ℚ≥0) : K

The default definition of the coercion ℚ≥0 → K for a division semiring K.

↑q : K is defined as (q.num : K) / (q.den : K).

Do not use this directly (instances of DivisionSemiring are allowed to override that default for better definitional properties). Instead, use the coercion.

Equations

• q.castRec = ↑q.num / ↑q.den

def Rat.castRec {K : Type u_3} [NatCast K] [IntCast K] [Div K] (q : ℚ) : K

The default definition of the coercion ℚ → K for a division ring K.

↑q : K is defined as (q.num : K) / (q.den : K).

Do not use this directly (instances of DivisionRing are allowed to override that default for better definitional properties). Instead, use the coercion.

Equations

class DivisionSemiring (α : Type u_4) extends Semiring , Inv , Div , Nontrivial , NNRatCast : Type u_4

A DivisionSemiring is a Semiring with multiplicative inverses for nonzero elements.

An instance of DivisionSemiring K includes maps nnratCast : ℚ≥0 → K and nnqsmul : ℚ≥0 → K → K. Those two fields are needed to implement the DivisionSemiring K → Algebra ℚ≥0 K instance since we need to control the specific definitions for some special cases of K (in particular K = ℚ≥0 itself). See also note [forgetful inheritance].

If the division semiring has positive characteristic p, our division by zero convention forces nnratCast (1 / p) = 1 / 0 = 0.
