Cast of integers #

This file defines the canonical homomorphism from the integers into an additive group with a one (typically a Ring). In additive groups with a one element, there exists a unique such homomorphism and we store it in the intCast : ℤ → R field.

Preferentially, the homomorphism is written as a coercion.

    An AddGroupWithOne is an AddGroup with a 1. It also contains data for the unique homomorphisms ℕ → R and ℤ → R.

      theorem AddGroupWithOne.intCast_ofNat {R : Type u} [self : AddGroupWithOne R] (n : ) :
      IntCast.intCast n = n

      The canonical homomorphism ℤ → R agrees with the one from ℕ → R on .

      The canonical homomorphism ℤ → R for negative values is just the negation of the values of the canonical homomorphism ℕ → R.

      An AddCommGroupWithOne is an AddGroupWithOne satisfying a + b = b + a.
