Main Body
1: Structured Description
Here is the rules of Structured Description.
Entities:
\( T\): \(\in \{\text{ the topological spaces }\}\)
\( F\): \(\in \{\text{ the fields }\}\)
\( f\): \(: T \to F\)
\(*supp f\): \(= \overline{f^{-1} (F \setminus \{0\})}\), where the over line denotes taking the closure
//
Conditions:
//
2: Note
The domain needs to be a topological space, because otherwise, the closure would not make sense; the codomain needs to be a field, because otherwise, \(0\) would not make sense.
