## Near-rings with identity

Abbreviation: NRng$_1$

### Definition

A near-ring with identity is a structure $\mathbf{N}=\langle N,+,-,0,\cdot,1 \rangle$ of type $\langle 2,1,0,2,0\rangle$ such that

$\langle N,+,-,0,\cdot\rangle$ is a near-rings

$1$ is a multiplicative identity: $x\cdot 1=x\mbox{and}1\cdot x=x$

##### Morphisms

Let $\mathbf{M}$ and $\mathbf{N}$ be near-rings with identity. A morphism from $\mathbf{M}$ to $\mathbf{N}$ is a function $h:M\rightarrow N$ that is a homomorphism:

$h(x+y)=h(x)+h(y)$, $h(x\cdot y)=h(x)\cdot h(y)$, $h(1)=1$

Remark: It follows that $h(0)=0$ and $h(-x)=-h(x)$.

### Examples

Example 1: $\langle\mathbb{R}^{\mathbb{R}},+,-,0,\cdot,1\rangle$, the near-ring of functions on the real numbers with pointwise addition, subtraction, zero, composition, and the identity function.

### Basic results

$0$ is a zero for $\cdot$: $0\cdot x=0$ and $x\cdot 0=0$.
