Topological (sub)algebras #

A topological algebra over a topological semiring R is a topological semiring with a compatible continuous scalar multiplication by elements of R. We reuse typeclass has_continuous_smul for topological algebras.

Results #

This is just a minimal stub for now!

The topological closure of a subalgebra is still a subalgebra, which as an algebra is a topological algebra.

This is really a statement about topological algebra isomorphisms, but we don't have those, so we use the clunky approach of talking about an algebra homomorphism, and a separate homeomorphism, along with a witness that as functions they are the same.
