I’ve been having a lot of fun on Mathstodon lately, and here’s an example.
A rig R has a commutative associative addition, an associative multiplication that distributes over addition, an element 0 with r+0 = r and
for all r ∈ R and an element 1 with 1r = r = r1 for all r ∈ R
A rig is idempotent if r r = r for all r ∈ R.
Is the free idempotent rig on 2 generators finite? If so, how many elements does it have?
Morgan Rogers raised this issue on the Category Theory Community server, and after a ...
