Closed two-sided ideals #
The closure of a two-sided ideal in a topological ring is again two-sided, and closed two-sided
ideals in rings with an approximate unit absorb compatible scalar multiplication. We
also supply the topological-ring structure on Mathlib's existing quotient topology
for quotients of noncommutative rings by native ideals. The closed ideal generated
by an ideal of the center presents discrete modules with central relations.
Continuous algebra equivalences carrying one central character to another map the closed ideal
generated by the kernel of the first into that of the second
(AlgEquiv.apply_mem_closedCentralIdeal_ker), so continuous automorphisms with continuous
inverses fixing a character preserve its closed ideal (MonoidHom.map_closedCentralIdeal_ker).
When ring automorphisms preserving a two-sided ideal have continuous inverses, so do the
automorphisms they induce on the quotient (MonoidHom.continuous_quotientRingAut_symm).
The quotient-ring construction generalizes Patrick Massot's
QuotientRing.topologicalRing_quotient in Mathlib from commutative rings, using
the same native additive quotient and open quotient-map argument.
A quotient of a possibly noncommutative topological ring is a topological ring.
The closure of a two-sided ideal is two-sided.
If the inverse of an automorphism preserving I is continuous, so is the inverse of the
induced automorphism of A ⧸ I, for the quotient topology.
