Definition of Subtraction and Division

• Subtraction: if Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle a, b \in F, a - b = a + (-b)} .
• Division: if Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle a, b \in F, a / b = a \times b^{-1}} .

Basic Properties of a Field (cont'd)

8. Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \forall a \in F} , $a\times 0=0$.

Proof of 8

By F3 , Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle a \times 0 = a \times (0 + 0)}

By F5 , Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle a \times (0 + 0) = a \times 0 + a \times 0} ;

By F3 , Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle a \times 0 = 0 + a \times 0} ;

By Thm P1, Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle 0 = a \times 0} .

9. Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \nexists b \in F} s.t. Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle 0 \times b = 1} ;

Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \forall b \in F} s.t. Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle 0 \times b \neq 1} .

Proof of 9

By F3 , $\times b=0\neq 1$.

10. Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle (-a) \times b = a \times (-b) = -(a \times b)} .

11. Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle (-a) \times (-b) = a \times b} .

12. Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle a \times b = 0 \iff a = 0} or Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle b = 0} .

Proof of 12

<= :

By P8 , if Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle a = 0} , then $a\times b=0\times b=0$;

By P8 , if $b=0$ , then $a\times b=a\times 0=0$.

=> : Assume $a\times b=0$ , if a = 0 we are done;

Otherwise , by P8 , $a\neq 0$ and we have $a\times b=0=a\times 0$;

by cancellation (P2) , $b=0$.

$(a+b)\times (a-b)=a^{2}-b^{2}$.

Proof

By F5 , $(a+b)\times (a-b)=a\times (a+(-b))+b\times (a+(-b))$

$=a^{2}-b^{2}$

Theorem

$\exists !\iota :\mathbb {Z} \rightarrow F$ s.t.

1. Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \iota(0) = 0 , \iota(1) = 1} ;

2. Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \forall m ,n \in \Z, \iota(m+n) = \iota(m) + \iota(n)} ;

3. Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \forall m ,n \in \Z, \iota(m\times n) = \iota(m) \times \iota(n)} .

Examples

Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \iota(2) = \iota(1+1) = \iota(1) + \iota(1) = 1 + 1;} Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \iota(3) = \iota(2+1) = \iota(2) + \iota(1) = \iota(2) + 1;}

......

In F2: Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \begin{align} 27 ----> \iota(27) &= \iota(26 + 1)\\ &= \iota(26) + \iota(1)\\ &= \iota(26) + 1\\ &= \iota(13 \times 2) + 1\\ &= \iota(2) \times \iota(13) + 1\\ &= (1 + 1) \times \iota(13) + 1\\ &= 0 \times \iota(13) + 1\\ &= 1 \end{align} }
