Let $latex \omega$ denote the first infinite cardinal - that is, the set of non-negative integers. Let $latex p_0 = 2$ be the smallest prime number, and let $latex (p_n)_{n\in\omega}$ enumerate all prime numbers in ascending order. Let $latex \mathcal{U}$ be a free ultrafilter on $latex \omega$. We consider the field $latex F = \big(\prod_{n\in\omega}\mathbb{Z}/p_n\mathbb{Z}\big)/{\mathcal...

Last time we defined and gave some examples of rings. Recapping, a ring is a special kind of group with an additional multiplication operation that "plays nicely" with addition.

We proved some basic properties, like zero being unique and negation being well-behaved.
