Perpendicularity in an Abelian Group
We give a set of axioms to establish a perpendicularity relation in an Abelian group and then study the existence of perpendicularities in (ℤn,+) and (ℚ+,·) and in certain other groups. Our approach provides a justification for the use of the symbol ⊥ denoting relative primeness in number theory and...
