A Topology on Milnor’s Group of a Topological Field and Continuous Joint Determinants

For the tuple set of commuting invertible matrices with coefficients in a given field, the joint determinants are defined as generalizations of the determinant map for the square matrices. We introduce a natural topology on Milnor’s K-groups of a topological field as the quotient topology induced by...
