The field of meromorphic germs at a point #
Let ๐ be a nontrivially normed field and a : ๐. A function meromorphic at a is only
determined, as such, on a punctured neighbourhood of a: Mathlib's MeromorphicAt ignores the
value at a itself. This file collects the germs along the punctured neighbourhood filter
๐[โ ] a of the functions ๐ โ ๐ which are meromorphic at a into a subring
TauCeti.meromorphicGerms ๐ a of Mathlib's ring of germs Filter.Germ (๐[โ ] a) ๐, and shows
that it is a field. Constant functions give its natural algebra structure over ๐.
The inverse of a germ is the pointwise inverse. It is a multiplicative inverse because, by the
principle of isolated zeros (MeromorphicAt.eventually_eq_zero_or_eventually_ne_zero), a
meromorphic function whose punctured germ is nonzero vanishes at no point of some punctured
neighbourhood (MeromorphicAt.germ_ne_zero_iff).
For ๐ = โ this is the local field of meromorphic functions in one variable; it is identified
with the fraction field of the ring of holomorphic germs at a in
TauCeti.Geometry.Manifold.Complex.StructureSheaf.MeromorphicGerm.
