)abbrev category ATTREG AttributeRegistry

++ This category exports the attributes in the AXIOM Library
AttributeRegistry(): Category == with
  commutative("*")
    ++ \spad{commutative("*")} is true if it has an operation
    ++ \spad{"*": (D,D) -> D} which is commutative.
  noZeroDivisors
    ++ \spad{noZeroDivisors} is true if \spad{x * y \~~= 0} implies 
    ++ both x and y are non-zero.
  canonicalUnitNormal
    ++ \spad{canonicalUnitNormal} is true if we can choose a canonical
    ++ representative for each class of associate elements, that is
    ++ \spad{associates?(a,b)} returns true if and only if 
    ++ \spad{unitCanonical(a) = unitCanonical(b)}.
  partiallyOrderedSet
    ++ \spad{partiallyOrderedSet} is true if
    ++ a set with \spadop{<} which is transitive, 
    ++ but \spad{not(a < b or a = b)}
    ++ does not necessarily imply \spad{b<a}.
  additiveValuation
    ++ \spad{additiveValuation} implies
    ++ \spad{euclideanSize(a*b)=euclideanSize(a)+euclideanSize(b)}.
  multiplicativeValuation
    ++ \spad{multiplicativeValuation} implies
    ++ \spad{euclideanSize(a*b)=euclideanSize(a)*euclideanSize(b)}.
  canonical
    ++ \spad{canonical} is true if and only if distinct elements have 
    ++ distinct data structures. For example, a domain of mathematical objects 
    ++ which has the \spad{canonical} attribute means that two objects 
    ++ are mathematically
    ++ equal if and only if their data structures are equal.
