Definition df-mgp

Description: Define a structure that puts the multiplication operation of a ring in the addition slot. Note that this will not actually be a group for the average ring, or even for a field, but it will be a monoid, and unitgrp shows that we get a group if we restrict to the elements that have inverses. This allows us to formalize such notions as "the multiplication operation of a ring is a monoid" ( ringmgp ) or "the multiplicative identity" in terms of the identity of a monoid ( df-1r ).
