Domain (ring theory)

In algebra, a domain is a nonzero ring in which ab = 0 implies a = 0 or b = 0. (Sometimes such a ring is said to "have the zero-product property".) Equivalently, a domain is a ring in which 0 is the only left zero divisor (or equivalently, the only right zero divisor). A commutative domain is called an integral domain. Mathematical literature contains multiple variants of the definition of "domain". (Wikipedia).

RNT1.1. Definition of Ring

Ring Theory: We define rings and give many examples. Items under consideration include commutativity and multiplicative inverses. Example include modular integers, square matrices, polynomial rings, quaternions, and adjoins of algebraic and transcendental numbers.

RNT2.3. Euclidean Domains

Ring Theory: We define Euclidean domains as integral domains with a division algorithm. We show that euclidean domains are PIDs and UFDs, and that Euclidean domains allow for the Euclidean algorithm and Bezout's Identity.

RNT1.2. Definition of Integral Domain

Ring Theory: We consider integral domains, which are commutative rings that contain no zero divisors. We show that this property is equivalent to a cancellation law for the ring. Finally we note some basic connections between integral domains and fields.

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 7.1: Basic ring theory

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 7.1: Basic ring theory A ring is an abelian group (R,+) with a second binary operation, multiplication and the distributive law. Multiplication need not commute, nor need there be multiplicative inverses, so a ring is like a field but without these properties.

Algebraic number theory and rings I | Math History | NJ Wildberger

In the 19th century, algebraists started to look at extension fields of the rational numbers as new domains for doing arithmetic. In this way the notion of an abstract ring was born, through the more concrete examples of rings of algebraic integers in number fields. Key examples include

Understand Domain and Range

Understand the domain and range of a function. The domain is the set of all values that can be input into a function and the respective output values are the range. There are restriction to the domain in terms of the real number system which the video will explain.

Proof: Prime Ideal iff R/P is Integral Domain; Maximal iff R/M is Field

A very useful theorem in ring theory is the theorem that an ideal P is prime if and only if the quotient R/P is an integral domain (ID). Similarly, an ideal M is maximal if and only if R/M is a field. In this video, we prove both of these statements! Ring & Module Theory playlist: https:/

RNT2.5. Polynomial Rings over Fields

Ring Theory: We show that polynomial rings over fields are Euclidean domains and explore factorization and extension fields using irreducible polynomials. As an application, we show that the units of a finite field form a cyclic group under multiplication.
