Abbreviation: Rng1
A \emph{ring with identity} is a structure R=⟨R,+,−,0,⋅,1⟩ of type ⟨2,1,0,2,0⟩ such that
⟨R,+,−,0,⋅⟩ is a ring
1 is an identity for ⋅: x⋅1=x, 1⋅x=x
Let R and S be rings with identity. A morphism from R to S is a function h:R→S that is a homomorphism:
h(x+y)=h(x)+h(y), h(x⋅y)=h(x)⋅h(y), h(1)=1
Remark: It follows that h(0)=0 and h(−x)=−h(x).
Example 1: ⟨Z,+,−,0,⋅,1⟩, the ring of integers with addition, subtraction, zero, multiplication, and one.
0 is a zero for ⋅: 0⋅x=0 and x⋅0=0.
