Exercise 1. Define an operation on Z by a b= a - b. Determine ife is associative or commutative. Find a right identity. Is there a left identity? What about inverses? Exercise 2. Write a multiplication table for the set A = {a,b,c,d,e} such that e is an identity element, the product is defined for all elements and each element has an inverse, but the product is NOT associative. Show by example that it is not associative....
Consider the following examples of a set S and a binary operation on S. Show with proof that the binary operation is indeed a binary operation, whether the binary operation has an identity, whether each element has an inverse, and whether the binary operation is associative. Hence, determine whether the set S is a group under the given binary operation. (f) S quadratic residues in Z101 under multiplication modulo 101

The set G = {a ∈ Q| a≠0} is closed under the binary operation a
∗ b = ab/3 . Prove that (G, ∗) is an abelian group.
4. (10 points) The set G = {a e Qla #0} is closed under the binary operation a*b = ab 3 Prove that (G, *) is an abelian group.
binary operation (S Problem 5 (Bonus 1 point). Lemma 1 in lectures says that for an associative b ) with identity, inverse of an invertible element is uni que. Construct a bin ary operation on the set S- a, b, c) such that a is the identity element and there is at least one invertible element with two distinct inverses, or ezplain why this is not possible

Let S = {x ER:[x]<1}=(-1,1). We will refer to E as hyperbolic relativity space. Now a+b define a binary operation by: if a,beR and ab +-1, then aob= 1+ ab Proposition 1. (5,0) is a group. Remark. This is the kind of problem that every student should become competent at doing. Perhaps some of the details here are more challenging than normally but understanding what are the steps to follow in such a problem is basic, and everyone should understand...
Let G be a finite set with an associative, binary operation given by a table in which each element of the set G appears exactly once in each row and column. Prove that G is a group. How do you recognize the identity element? How do you recognize the inverse of an element? (abstract algebra)
3) Let S be a set with an associative binary operation :SxS->S. Let e, be a left identity of S (i.e., e, *ssVse S), and let eg be a right identity of S (i.e., a) Prove that e-e b) Also prove that S can have at most one 2-sided identity.
