Higher Algebra - people.math.harvard.edu
people.math.harvard.eduAn alternate possibility is to work with commutative ring objects in the category of topological spaces itself: that is, to require the ring axioms to hold \on the nose" and not just up to homotopy. Although this does lead to a reasonable generalization of classical commutative algebra, it …

Basic Number Properties - Solano Community College
www.solano.eduThere are four basic properties of numbers: commutative, associative, distributive, and identity. You should be familiar with each of these. It is especially important to understand these properties once you reach advanced math such as algebra and calculus. Distributive Property The sum of two numbers times a third number is equal

people.math.wisc.edu0.1 The Laws of Algebra 3 All the rules of calculation that you learned in elementary school follow from the above funda-mental laws. In particular, the Commutative and Associative Laws say that you can add a bunch of numbers in any order and similarly you can multiply a bunch of numbers in any order. For example,

Cox – Spring 2010 The University Of Alabama in Hunt sville Computer Science Boolean Algebra The algebraic system usually used to work with binary logic expressions Postulates: 1. Closure: Any defined operation on (0, 1) gives (0,1) 2. Identity: 0 + x = x ; 1 x = x 3. Commutative: x + y = y + x ; xy ...

The set Z of integers is a ring with the usual operations of addition and multiplication. Example. The set Q of rational numbers is a ring with the usual operations of addition and multi-plication. Example.
