The reciprocal of zero is undefined.

Recorded sources

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that the reciprocal of zero is undefined?

Yes. Multiple math references state that in the standard real and complex number systems zero has no reciprocal and 1/0 is undefined. One speculative preprint proposes redefining F/0 in a nonstandard framework, but does not overturn the standard result.
