Norms on completions of seminormed rings #
The norm of the completion of a seminormed ring extends the norm of the ring by continuity, so
identities and inequalities between continuous functions of the norm pass from the ring to its
completion. This file records that submultiplicativity without a unit, multiplicativity,
‖x * y‖ = ‖x‖ * ‖y‖, and power-multiplicativity, ‖x ^ n‖ = ‖x‖ ^ n, are such properties.
Completing a nonunital seminormed ring, such as an L¹ convolution algebra on compactly supported
functions, therefore gives a complete nonunital normed ring. Isometry of a star operation passes
to the completion by UniformSpace.Completion.instNormedStarGroup in
TauCeti.Analysis.CStarAlgebra.Completion. A power-multiplicative norm determines the
power-bounded elements of a normed ring with a pseudouniformizer: they are exactly the elements
of norm at most one (TauCeti.Huber.IsPseudoUniformizer.isPowerBounded_iff_norm_le_one).
Main results #
IsPowMul.completion: the norm of the completion of a seminormed ring with a power-multiplicative norm is power-multiplicative.UniformSpace.Completion.instNormMulClass: the norm of the completion of a nonunital seminormed ring with a multiplicative norm is multiplicative.UniformSpace.Completion.instNormOneClass: the completion of a seminormed ring in which1has norm1has the same property.UniformSpace.Completion.instNonUnitalNormedRing: the completion of a nonunital seminormed ring is a nonunital normed ring.
The completion of a seminormed ring with a power-multiplicative norm has a power-multiplicative norm.
The completion of a nonunital seminormed ring with a multiplicative norm has a multiplicative norm.
The completion of a seminormed ring in which 1 has norm 1 has the same property.
The completion of a nonunital seminormed ring is a nonunital normed ring. For a ring with
unit this is the nonunital part of Mathlib's NormedRing instance on the completion.
