Ideal quotients #

This file defines ideal quotients as a special case of submodule quotients and proves some basic results about these quotients.

See Algebra.RingQuot for quotients of non-commutative rings.

Main definitions #

@[reducible]

The quotient R/I of a ring R by an ideal I.

The ideal quotient of I is defined to equal the quotient of I as an R-submodule of R. This definition is marked reducible so that typeclass instances can be shared between Ideal.Quotient I and Submodule.Quotient I.

noncomputable def Ideal.Quotient.groupWithZero {R : Type u} [CommRing R] (I : Ideal R) [hI : Ideal.IsMaximal I] :

The quotient by a maximal ideal is a group with zero. This is a def rather than instance, since users will have computable inverses in some applications.

The quotient by a maximal ideal is a field. This is a def rather than instance, since users will have computable inverses (and qsmul, rat_cast) in some applications.

See note [reducible non-instances].

If the quotient by an ideal is a field, then the ideal is maximal.

The quotient of a ring by an ideal is a field iff the ideal is maximal.
