Associative algebra

In mathematics, an associative algebra A is an algebraic structure with compatible operations of addition, multiplication (assumed to be associative), and a scalar multiplication by elements in some field K. The addition and multiplication operations together give A the structure of a ring; the addition and scalar multiplication operations together give A the structure of a vector space over K. In this article we will also use the term K-algebra to mean an associative algebra over the field K. A standard first example of a K-algebra is a ring of square matrices over a field K, with the usual matrix multiplication. A commutative algebra is an associative algebra that has a commutative multiplication, or, equivalently, an associative algebra that is also a commutative ring. In this article associative algebras are assumed to have a multiplicative identity, denoted 1; they are sometimes called unital associative algebras for clarification. In some areas of mathematics this assumption is not made, and we will call such structures non-unital associative algebras. We will also assume that all rings are unital, and all ring homomorphisms are unital. Many authors consider the more general concept of an associative algebra over a commutative ring R, instead of a field: An R-algebra is an R-module with an associative R-bilinear binary operation, which also contains a multiplicative identity. For examples of this concept, if S is any ring with center C, then S is an associative C-algebra. (Wikipedia).

Determine if the Binary Operation Defined by the Table is Commutative and Associative

In this video we determine whether or not a binary operation is commutative and associative. The binary operation is actually defined by a table in this example. I hope this video helps someone.

Definition of a group Lesson 24

In this video we take our first look at the definition of a group. It is basically a set of elements and the operation defined on them. If this set of elements and the operation defined on them obey the properties of closure and associativity, and if one of the elements is the identity el

What is a Group? | Abstract Algebra

Welcome to group theory! In today's lesson we'll be going over the definition of a group. We'll see the four group axioms in action with some examples, and some non-examples as well which violate the axioms and are thus not groups. In a fundamental way, groups are structures built from s

19 Defining the types of binary operations

The two types of binary operations discussed in this video are commutative and associative. We saw them in the previous video and here we define them specifically so that we can build on our repertoire to use in proofs. Remember, it is by filling up our toolbox with these definitions that

A gentle description of a vertex algebra.

Working from the notions of associative algebras, Lie algebras, and Poisson algebras we build the idea of a vertex algebra. We end with the proper definition as well as an "intuition" for how to think of the parts. Please Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/michaelpennmath?sub_confirmation
