Hey all, At some point in the near future I may try to bring the implementation of power series rings more into line with the p-adics. The single variable case seems straightforward, but a something popped up for me when thinking about the multivariable case.
What is the appropriate analogue of laurent series? Is the key point for laurent series that we allow bounded negative exponents? Or that it's a field? Because allowing bounded negative exponents is not enough to always have inverses: x + y has no inverse if we require the exponents of x and y to be bounded away from negative infinity.
