Extract

In any valuated ring R, more specifically, a ring with a degree-function d(a) as defined in §2, the notion of right R-dependence may be denned as follows: (i) The elements a1, …, ar of R are right R-dependent if there exist b1, …, br ∈ R such that . (ii) An element a of R is said to be right R-dependent on the elements a1, …, ar of R if a = 0 or if there exist c1, …, cr ∈ R such that .
