Definition:Valuation Ring Induced by Non-Archimedean Norm

Definition
Let $\struct {R, \norm{\,\cdot\,}}$ be a normed division ring with zero $0_R$.

The valuation ring induced by the norm $\norm{\,\cdot\,}$ is the set:
 * $\mathcal O = \set{x \in R: \norm{x} \le 1}$

That is, the valuation ring induced by the norm $\norm{\,\cdot\,}$ is the closed ball ${B_1}^- \paren {0_R}$.

 * Valuation Ideal is Maximal Ideal of Induced Valuation Ring - where it is shown that the valuation ideal is an ideal that is a maximal left ideal and a maximal right ideal of the valuation ring induced by the norm.
