ring

The set of integers, #x5C;mathbb#x7B;Z#x7D;, is the prototypical ring.

multiplicative operation
multiplicative operation

(algebra) An algebraic structure which consists of a set with two binary operations: an additive operation and a multiplicative operation, such that the set is an abelian group under the additive operation, a monoid under the multiplicative operation, and such that the multiplicative operation is distributive with respect to the additive operation.

The definition of ring without unity allows, for instance, the set 2#x5C;mathbb#x7B;Z#x7D; of even integers to be a ring.

(algebra) An algebraic structure as above, but only required to be a semigroup under the multiplicative operation, that is, there need not be a multiplicative identity element.
