Finite-dimensional module topology in coordinates #
For a module over a topological semiring with a finite basis, the module topology is the coordinate topology through that basis. This identifies the canonical topology used on quadratic spaces and their endomorphisms with a finite product of copies of the scalars. In particular, over a Hausdorff locally compact division ring equipped with a topological semiring structure, the module topology of a finite-dimensional space is Hausdorff and locally compact, and every subspace of a finite-dimensional space is closed; over σ-compact scalars it is σ-compact. No norm or completeness hypothesis on the scalars is needed.
The basis-dependent API is grouped in TauCeti.ModuleTopology, alongside Mathlib's
organizational ModuleTopology namespace.
Coordinates through a finite basis give a homeomorphism for the module topology.
