In Exercises 17 − 24 , let the binary operation ∗ be defined on ℤ by the given rule. Determine in each case whether ℤ a group with respect to is ∗ and whether it is an abelian group. State which, if any, conditions fail to hold.

x ∗ y = | x | y

To determine

Whether ℤ is a group with respect to ∗ where x∗y=|x|y. Also, determine whether ℤ is an abelian group. State which, if any, conditions fail to hold.

Explanation

Given information:

The binary operation ∗ on ℤ such that x∗y=|x|y.

Explanation:

Suppose the binary operation ∗ is defined for element of a set G. The set G is a group with respect to ∗, provided the following conditions hold:

1. G is closed under ∗. That is x∈G and y∈G imply that x∗y is in G.

2. ∗ is associative. For all x,y,z in G, x∗(y∗z)=(x∗y)∗z.

3. G has an identity element e. There is an e in G such that x∗e=e∗x=x for all x∈G.

4. G contains inverses. For each a∈G, there exists b∈G such that a∗b=b∗a=e.

Condition for an abelian group:

G is called commutative group or an abelian group, if ∗ is commutative. That is, x∗y=y∗x for all x, y   in G.

First, check if ℤ is a group under the binary operation.

First condition:

Let x,y∈ℤ

⇒ |x| ,y∈ℤ

⇒ |x|y∈ℤ

⇒x∗y∈ℤ

ℤ is closed under the binary operation
