Jul 21, 2023 at 18:00 comment added LSpice Re, my pleasure, and I hope you've been enjoying the experience here! Just so you know, while it's always good to be semantically correct, $R$ vs. $\mathbin R$ $R$ vs. $\mathbin R$ makes no difference in rendering; the only difference comes when a binary op. is surrounded by things on which to operate: $A R B$ vs. $A \mathbin R B$ $A R B$ vs. $A \mathbin R B$. Lots of things TeX already knows are binary operators, like A + B, but you have to tell it about $R$ specifically. You can also suppress the built-in behaviour: $A{+}B$ A{+}B.

Added the equivalence relation for functions, to answer a comment.
Jul 21, 2023 at 15:19 comment added Jean-Armand Moroni @LSpice Thanks for your edits. This was one of my first posts (in MO or MSE), so I was not fully aware of typographic rules. As for your question, the equivalence relation I had in mind is the "Big O" one. I shall state that in the text.
Jul 21, 2023 at 3:21 comment added LSpice What does "with their equivalence relation on $+\infty$" mean? Does it mean that the difference of the functions tends to $0$, that their quotient is well defined near $+\infty$ and that its limit is $1$, or something else?

Tidying, while this is on the front page
Jun 25, 2022 at 22:19 comment added Benjamin Steinberg Free monoid are cancellative so all monoids are quotients of cancellative monoids. Also every monoid has a universal quotient that is idempotent
