Hey! :o

Let $p$ be a prime.
We define $$R=\{m/n\in \mathbb{Q}\mid m,n\in \mathbb{Z} \text{ and } p\not\mid n\}$$

I want to show that $R$ is a local subring of $\mathbb{Q}$. To show that, do we have to show that there is a $I\subseteq R$ which satisfies the following conditions?
  1. $I$ is the only maximal right ideal of $R$
  2. $I$ is the only maximal left ideal of $R$
  3. $I$ is an ideal
  4. each element $a\in R-I$ is invertible
(Wondering)

Consider $I = pR$ and use condition 4 to prove $R$ is local.
 
Thread 'How to define a vector field?'
Hello! In one book I saw that function ##V## of 3 variables ##V_x, V_y, V_z## (vector field in 3D) can be decomposed in a Taylor series without higher-order terms (partial derivative of second power and higher) at point ##(0,0,0)## such way: I think so: higher-order terms can be neglected because partial derivative of second power and higher are equal to 0. Is this true? And how to define vector field correctly for this case? (In the book I found nothing and my attempt was wrong...
