A topological division ring is a topological ring whose inversion function is continuous at every non-zero element.
Left-multiplication by a nonzero element of a topological division ring is proper, i.e., inverse images of compact sets are compact.

A topological division ring is a division ring with a topology where all operations are continuous, including inversion.
The (topological-space) closure of a subfield of a topological field is itself a subfield.
This section is about affine homeomorphisms from a topological field 𝕜 to itself.
Technically it does not require 𝕜 to be a topological field, a topological ring that
happens to be a field is enough.
The map λ x, a * x + b, as a homeomorphism from 𝕜 (a topological field) to itself, when a ≠ 0.

Some results about functions on preconnected sets valued in a ring or field with a topology.
If f is a function α → 𝕜 which is continuous on a preconnected set S, and
f ^ 2 = 1 on S, then either f = 1 on S, or f = -1 on S.
If f, g are functions α → 𝕜, both continuous on a preconnected set S, with
f ^ 2 = g ^ 2 on S, and g z ≠ 0 all z ∈ S, then either f = g or f = -g on
S.
If f, g are functions α → 𝕜, both continuous on a preconnected set S, with
f ^ 2 = g ^ 2 on S, and g z ≠ 0 all z ∈ S, then as soon as f = g holds at
one point of S it holds for all points.
