Notes on Ring Theory
... 5. Note that there is a good reason not to make a fuss about the additive identity 0, since it always exists. One sometimes distinguishes the element 1 by calling it the multiplicative identity. 6. It can be shown that for rings with identity, the distributive law forces the operation f to be commu ...

Order (group theory)
... for composite orders, e.g. the Klein four-group does not have an element of order four). This can be shown by inductive proof.[1] The consequences of the theorem include: the order of a group G is a power of a prime p if and only if ord(a) is some power of p for every a in G.[2] If a has infinite or ...

... We now begin with the formal definitions. A topological group is a group G which is also a topological space with the property that the multiplication map m:G×G→G (a, b) 7→ ab and the inversion map i:G→G a 7→ a−1 are continuous. Whenever we are given two topological groups, we insist that a homomorp ...

REMARKS ON WILMSHURST`S THEOREM 1. Introduction Suppose
... NF > n2 − 3n + O(1). We state the counterexamples in Section 2 and prove this estimate on the number of zeros. In Section 3, we give an alternative proof of Wilmshurst’s theorem that relies more heavily on real algebraic geometry and readily generalizes to harmonic vector fields in higher dimensions ...
