Definition talk:Topological Ring

Why on earth do you insist on topologies being called $\tau$, unlike, say, any text I've personally ever seen? --Dfeuer (talk) 10:27, 10 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Consistency. As an aside, almost all texts I've seen drop the topology from the notation. We don't want to do that, because it introduces either a need for a lot of words, or potential ambiguity. Neither of these we appreciate, so the call is rather easy. --Lord_Farin (talk) 11:13, 10 January 2013 (UTC)


 * $\tau$ is what's used in Steen & Seebach. --prime mover (talk) 11:15, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
