A Set (R,+,Γ) with Addition and Multiplication operators such that:
- Closed Under Addition (βa,bβR,a+bβR)
- Closed Under Multiplication βa,bβR,aΓbβR
Axioms
The axioms are:
- Additive Identity (β0βRΒ s.tΒ βaβR,0+Rβa=a)
- Additive Inverse exists (βaβR,ββaβRΒ s.tΒ a+(βa)=0)
- Associative with Addition (βa,b,cβR,(a+Rβb)+Rβc=a+Rβ(b+Rβc))
- Commutative under Addition (βa,bβR,(a+Rβb)=(b+Rβa))
- Multiplicative Identity exists (β1βR,βrβR,1βr=r)
- Associative with Multiplication (βa,b,cβR,(ab)c=a(bc))
- Distributive under Addition (βr,s,wβR,(r+s)(w)=rw+rs)
