a + b + c = a + b + c ? yes, Associative
a + e = a ? yes, e = 0
a + a 0 ? yes, has inverse element
-1
i.e. a -1 a
Group Counter-Example
G (the set of integers, multiplication)
(Z ,)
a b Z ? yes, Closure
a b c = a b c ?
yes, Associative
a e = a ? yes, e = 1
a a 1 ? No,
-1
Hence e = e’
Group
• Abelian group : a group (G ,) is abelian
if is commutative.
• Example: ( I , ) where I is the set of
integers and operation is defined as
ab = a+b-2 for all a,b in I
i. aI, bI a+b-2I so I is closed w.r.t.
ii. (ab)c = a (b c) (Associative)
(ab)c = (a+b-2)c = (a+b–2)+c-2 =a+b+c-4
a(bc) =a (b+c-2)=a+(b+c-2)-2 = a+b+c-4
Group Example
iii. Identity
ea = a
e+a-2 = a e = 2I for all a in I
iv. Inverse
If aI then bI will be the inverse of a if
ab = e= ba
a+b-2 =2 b, = -a+4 I
– Is I an abelian group
Homomorphism of Groups
• If ( G , ) and ( G , ) be two groups,
a mapping f:GG is called a group
homomorphism if

• Exercise 1. Show that the set {0,1,2,3,4,5}
is a finite abelian group under addition
modulo 6.
• Exercise 2. Show that the set {1,3,4,5,9} is
an abelian group under multiplication
modulo 11.
Cyclic Group
• A group G is called cyclic if, for some
aG, every element xG is of the form an,
where n is some integer.
• a is said to be a generator of the group G.
• Ring with zero divisors – A ring (R,+,×) is said to ring with zero
divisors, if there exist non-zero elements a,bR such that a×b=0.
In such a case, a and b are called zero divisors.
• Example:({0,1,2,3,4,5},+6,×6).
2 ×6 3=0 , 4 ×6 3=0,
1 0 0 0 0 0

INTEGRAL DOMAIN
The system (D,+,×) is an integral domain if
D1- (D,+) is an abelian group.
D2- (D,×) is commutative semi group with unity.
D3- Multiplication operation is distributive over
addition.
D4- (D,+,×) is free of zero divisors.
OR
A commutative ring with unity and without proper
zero divisors is called an integral domain.
i) The ring of integers (Z,+,×) is an integral
domain since it is commutative ring with
unity and for any two integers a,b, ab=0
implies a=0 or b=0(no zero divisors).
