| Sep 24, 2010 at 9:09 | comment | added | Alex B. | That's a really nice example! I wonder, whether the algebraists would have caught on if the initial motivation hadn't been there. I know, these "what would have happened if"-questions are rarely sensible, but this example distills my question in a succinct way. | |
