Minimum order of an element

This file defines the minimum order of an element of a monoid.

Main declarations

• Monoid.minOrder: The minimum order of an element of a given monoid.
• Monoid.minOrder_eq_top: The minimum order is infinite iff the monoid is torsion-free.
• ZMod.minOrder: The minimum order of $$ℤ/nℤ$$ is the smallest factor of n, unless n = 0, 1.

noncomputable def Monoid.minOrder (α : Type u_2) [Monoid α] : ℕ∞

The minimum order of a non-identity element. Also the minimum size of a nontrivial subgroup, see Monoid.le_minOrder_iff_forall_subgroup. Returns ∞ if the monoid is torsion-free.

noncomputable def AddMonoid.minOrder (α : Type u_2) [AddMonoid α] : ℕ∞

The minimum order of a non-identity element. Also the minimum size of a nontrivial subgroup, see AddMonoid.le_minOrder_iff_forall_addSubgroup. Returns ∞ if the monoid is torsion-free.
