Then G acts naturally on the ring of functions k[X] by g(f ) := f ◦ g −1 for f ∈ k[X] and g ∈ G. The ring of fixed points of this action is denoted by k[X]G and ...

The term “poset” is short for “partially ordered set”, that is, a set whose elements are ordered but not all pairs of elements are required to be comparable in the orde ...

In particular: 1. If x, y ∈ R and y − x ∈ Q, then x + Q = y + Q. 2. If x, y ∈ R and y − x ∈ / Q then x + Q and y + Q a ...
