 | This page has been identified as a candidate for refactoring of medium complexity. In particular: The abstract algebraical definition should not be a disambiguation, but use the transcluded subpages paradigm Until this has been finished, please leave {{Refactor}} in the code.
New contributors: Refactoring is a task which is expected to be undertaken by experienced editors only. Because of the underlying complexity of the work needed, it is recommended that you do not embark on a refactoring task until you have become familiar with the structural nature of pages of $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$.To discuss this page in more detail, feel free to use the talk page. When this work has been completed, you may remove this instance of {{Refactor}} from the code. |

Notation
As well as the notation:
- $\gen {X \cup Y}$
to denote the object generated by $X \cup Y$, it is also possible to use:
- $\gen {X, Y}$
