Main definitions #
Implementation notes #
The divisibility relation is defined for all monoids, and as such, depends on the order of
multiplication if the monoid is not commutative. There are two possible conventions for
divisibility in the noncommutative context, and this relation follows the convention for ordinals,
so a | b
is defined as ∃ c, b = a * c
.

divisibility, divides
There are two possible conventions for divisibility, which coincide in a CommMonoid
.
This matches the convention for ordinals.

An element a
in a semigroup is primal if whenever a
is a divisor of b * c
, it can be
factored as the product of a divisor of b
and a divisor of c
.
Equations
Instances For
A monoid is a decomposition monoid if every element is primal. An integral domain whose multiplicative monoid is a decomposition monoid, is called a pre-Schreier domain; it is a Schreier domain if it is moreover integrally closed.
- primal : ∀ (a : α), IsPrimal a
