Quotients by distinguished restricted power series #
Weierstrass division identifies the quotient of restricted series by a distinguished monic polynomial with its polynomial quotient. Preparation extends this description to any distinguished restricted series with a unit dominant coefficient. In particular, these quotients are finite free over the coefficient ring. This is the finite-module step in the induction proving noetherianity of Tate algebras: after making a series distinguished in the last variable, its quotient is finite over the Tate algebra in the remaining variables.
The radius may be any positive real number, and the coefficients may lie in a complete ultrametric normed commutative ring with multiplicative norm. No noetherian or field hypothesis is required.

Divisibility of polynomials by a distinguished monic polynomial is unchanged on passing to restricted series. The assertion needs uniqueness of division, but not completeness.
The inclusion of polynomials induces the quotient comparison for a distinguished monic polynomial. Its inverse sends a series class to the class of its Weierstrass remainder.
