Definition df-ur

Description: Define the multiplicative neutral element of a ring. This definition works by extracting the 0g element, i.e. the neutral element in a group or monoid, and transferring it to the multiplicative monoid via the mulGrp function ( df-mgp ). See also dfur2 , which derives the "traditional" definition as the unique element of a ring which is left- and right-neutral under multiplication.
