Field
field | commutative ring |
ring | abelian group |
group | monoid | semigroup | 1. Addition is associative: [math]\displaystyle{ \forall x,y,z\in S, (x+y)+z= x+(y+z). }[/math] |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
2. Existence of additive identity 0: [math]\displaystyle{ \forall x\in S, x+0= 0+x=x. }[/math] | |||||||
3. Everyone has an additive inverse: [math]\displaystyle{ \forall x\in S, \exists -x\in S, \text{ s.t. } x+(-x)= (-x)+x=0. }[/math] | |||||||
4. Addition is commutative: [math]\displaystyle{ \forall x,y\in S, x+y= y+x. }[/math] | |||||||
5. Multiplication distributes over addition: [math]\displaystyle{ \forall x,y,z\in S, x\cdot(y+z)= x\cdot y+x\cdot z }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ (y+z)\cdot x= y\cdot x+z\cdot x. }[/math] | |||||||
6. Multiplication is associative: [math]\displaystyle{ \forall x,y,z\in S, (x\cdot y)\cdot z= x\cdot (y\cdot z). }[/math] | |||||||
7. Existence of multiplicative identity 1: [math]\displaystyle{ \forall x\in S, x\cdot 1= 1\cdot x=x. }[/math] | |||||||
8. Multiplication is commutative: [math]\displaystyle{ \forall x,y\in S, x\cdot y= y\cdot x. }[/math] | |||||||
9. Every non-zero element has a multiplicative inverse: [math]\displaystyle{ \forall x\in S\setminus\{0\}, \exists x^{-1}\in S, \text{ s.t. } x\cdot x^{-1}= x^{-1}\cdot x=1. }[/math] |
