This document provides an overview of abstract algebra concepts including abelian groups, isomorphisms, group homomorphisms, cosets, Lagrange's theorem, rings, and properties of rings. It defines an abelian group as a group where the group law is commutative. It describes isomorphisms as one-to-one mappings between sets that preserve binary relationships. It also discusses group homomorphisms, cosets, and Lagrange's theorem relating the order of a group to the order of its subgroups. Finally, it defines rings and integral domains, and contrasts their properties with fields.

PART 01 Describe and Give Example of Abelian Group Abelian Group • It is a group in which the law of composition is commutative, i.e. the group law • satisfies
for any g,h in the group.
• Abelian groups are generally simpler to analyze than
nonabelian groups are, as many objects of interest for a given group simplify to special cases when the group is abelian. Example of Abelian Group PART 02 Isomorphisms and Group Homomorphisms Isomorphisms Definition Isomorphism, in modern algebra, a one-to-one correspondence (mapping) between two sets that preserves binary relationships between elements of the sets. For example, the set of natural numbers can be mapped onto the set of even natural numbers by multiplying each natural number by 2. The binary operation of adding two numbers is preserved—that is, adding two natural numbers and then multiplying the sum by 2 gives the same result as multiplying each natural number by 2 and then adding the products together—so the sets are isomorphic for addition. Group Homomorphisms PART 03 Cosets and Lagrange’s Theorem Theorem: PART 04 Properties and Example of Rings Ring • It is a set equipped with two operations (usually referred to as addition and multiplication) that satisfy certain properties: there are additive and multiplicative identities and additive inverses, addition is commutative, and the operations are associative and distributive. Properties of Rings • If ab=0ab=0 in RR and aa and bb are nonzero, then aaand bb are called zero- divisors. A ring with no zero-divisors is called a domain, and a commutative domain is called an integral domain. The integral domain condition is weaker than the field condition: The integral domain condition is weaker than the field condition:
Every field is an integral domain,
but not every integral domain is a field. Examples of Rings Thank You!
