Ring (mathematics)
…componentwise addition and multiplication. Let R be a commutative ring and a 1 , ⋯ , a n be ideals such that a i + a j = ( 1 ) whenever i ≠ j. Then the Chinese remainder theorem says there is a canonical ring isomorphism: R / ⋂ i = 1 n a i ≃ ∏ i = 1 n R / a i , x mod ⋂ i = 1 n a i ↦ ( x mod a 1 , … , x mod a n ) . A "finite…
