(a) Which of the properties A1--A4, M1--M4, DL, O1--O5 fail for the
|
|
natural numbers $N$?
|
|
|
|
\medskip
|
|
A1. $a+(b+c)=(a+b+c)$
|
|
|
|
A2. $a+b=b+a$
|
|
|
|
A3. $a+0=a$
|
|
|
|
A4. For each $a$ there is as element $-a$ such that $a+(-a)=0$.
|
|
{\it Fails, no negative numbers.}
|
|
|
|
M1. $a(bc)=(ab)c$
|
|
|
|
M2. $ab=ba$
|
|
|
|
M3. $a\cdot1=a$
|
|
|
|
M4. For each $a\ne0$ there is an element $a^{-1}$ such that $aa^{-1}=1$.
|
|
{\it Fails, no multiplicative inverse.}
|
|
|
|
DL. $a(b+c)=ab+ac$
|
|
|
|
O1. Either $a\le b$ or $b\le a$.
|
|
|
|
O2. If $a\le b$ and $b\le a$ then $a=b$.
|
|
|
|
O3. If $a\le b$ and $b\le c$ then $a\le c$.
|
|
|
|
O4. If $a\le b$ then $a+c\le b+c$.
|
|
|
|
O5. If $a\le b$ and $0\le c$ then $ac\le bc$.
|
|
{\it Interesting since $0\not\in N$.}
|
|
|
|
\medskip
|
|
(b) Which of these properties fail for the set of integers $Z$?
|
|
|
|
\medskip
|
|
M4, no multiplicative inverse.
