Talk:Mahler's theorem

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"It is a fact of algebra that if f is a polynomial function with coefficients in any specified field, the same identity holds."

Did you mean to say "in any field of characteristic 0"? For characteristic p>0, I'm not sure what the formula would mean.

[edit] continuous with respect to which topology?

The article needs a link to the article that defines p-adic continuity. I presume is the standard cylinder set/ p-adic's as a metric space topology, but being precise would be nice. linas 00:47, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
