English
Let R be a division ring. For every natural number n, the image of −n in R equals the additive inverse of the image of n in R.
Русский
Пусть R — кольцо деления. Для любого натурального числа n образ −n в R равен противолежащему образу n в R.

/-- Auxiliary lemma for norm_cast to move the cast `-↑n` upwards to `↑-↑n`.
(The restriction to `DivisionRing` is necessary, otherwise this would also apply in the case where
`R = ℤ` and cause nontermination.)
