Topic: Naming & notation: `Algebra.Order.AbsoluteValue`
Arien Malec (Nov 23 2022 at 19:32):
I might back away from this, but I'm looking this file, and it's got the notation R →ₙ* S, which isn't yet defined in Mathlib4 (looking at the mathlib docs, it's defined in algebra.group.hom as the multiplicative homomorphism), and I'm not sure I understand how the notation is picked up in mathlib?
In addition, it defines both a structure and a class for AbsoluteValue -- the latter is currently called IsAbsoluteValue -- wondering if LawfulAbsoluteValue is the right name here?

We're not ready to port AbsoluteValue, it's on the list in error.

We want to get rid of is_absolute_value

No, no renames like this are happening during the port. is_absolute_value will turn into IsAbsoluteValue.
