This category contains results about Division Rings.
A division ring is a ring with unity $\struct {R, +, \circ}$ with one of the following equivalent properties:
Definition 1
- $\forall x \in R_{\ne 0_R}: \exists! x^{-1} \in R_{\ne 0_R}: x^{-1} \circ x = x \circ x^{-1} = 1_R$
where $R_{\ne 0_R}$ denotes the set of elements of $R$ without the ring zero $0_R$:
- $R_{\ne 0_R} = R \setminus \set {0_R}$
That is, every non-zero element of $R$ has a (unique) non-zero product inverse.
Definition 2
Definition 3
- $R$ has no proper elements.
