The range of a MonoidWithZeroHom

Given a MonoidWithZeroHom f : A → B whose codomain B is a MonoidWithZero, we define the type MonoidWithZeroHom.valueMonoid as the submonoid of Bˣ generated by the invertible elements in the range of f. For example, if A = ℕ, f is the natural cast to B where B is

• ℝ≥0, then MonoidWithZero.valueMonoid are the positive natural numbers in ℝ≥0;
• WithZero ℤ, then MonoidWithZero.valueMonoid = {1}.

MonoidWithZeroHom.valueMonoid₀ is the MonoidWithZero obtained by adjoining 0 to the previous type.

Likewise, MonoidWithZeroHom.valueGroup is the subgroup of Bˣ generated by the invertible elements in range f and MonoidWithZeroHom.valueGroup₀ adds a 0 to the previous group.

When B is commutative, then both MonoidWithZeroHom.valueGroup f and MonoidWithZeroHom.valueGroup₀ f are also commutative and the former can be described more explicitly (see MonoidWithZeroHom.mem_valueGroup_iff_of_comm).

Main Results

• valueMonoid f is the smallest submonoid of Bˣ containing the range of f;
• valueMonoid₀ f is the smallest submonoid with 0 containing the range of f;
• valueGroup f is the smallest subgroup of Bˣ containing the range of f;
• valueMonoid₀ f is the smallest subgroup with 0 containing the range of f;
• When B is a group with zero, rather than merely a monoid with zero, the above definitions all coincide: see valueMonoid_eq_valueGroup for an equality as submonoids and valueMonoid_eq_valueGroup' for an equality as subsets.
• When B is a commutative group with zero, MonoidWithZeroHom.valueGroup can be explicitly described as the elements that are ratios of terms in range f, see MonoidWithZeroHom.mem_valueGroup_iff_of_comm.

Implementation details

MonoidWithZeroHom.valueMonoid is defined explicitly in terms of its carrier, by proving the required properties; that it coincides with the submonoid generated by the closure is proven in MonoidWithZeroHom.valueMonoid_eq_closure, but using the latter as definition yields to unwanted unfolding.
