Maximal spectrum of a commutative ring #

The maximal spectrum of a commutative ring is the type of all maximal ideals. It is naturally a subset of the prime spectrum endowed with the subspace topology.

Main definitions #

Implementation notes #

The Zariski topology on the maximal spectrum is defined as the subspace topology induced by the natural inclusion into the prime spectrum to avoid API duplication for zero loci.
