“Infinite Jest” Has Turned Thirty. Have We Forgotten How to Read It?
Informally, I would like to find an infinite product of rational numbers that evaluates to a nonzero rational number such that the multiplicity of each prime in the numerator is finite, while on the denominator there are an infinite number of primes with unbounded multiplicity.

I am a little confused about how a cyclic group can be infinite. To provide an example, look at $\langle 1\rangle$ under the binary operation of addition. You can never make any negative numbers with
This resolves your problem because it shows that $\frac {1} {\epsilon}$ will be positive infinity or infinite infinity depending on the sign of the original infinitesimal, while division by zero is still undefined. This viewpoint helps account for all indeterminate forms as well, such as $\frac {0} {0}$.
Before what follows, Cantor's diagonal argument was presented as a proof that $\mathbb {R}$ is uncountably infinite; this proof I found to be logically sound. However, after that, an alternative pro...
If the vector space is finite dimensional, then it is a countable set; but there are infinite-dimensional vector spaces over $\mathbb {Q}$ that are countable as sets.
