Properties of Group
- The identity element of a group is always unique.
- The inverse of each element of a group is unique, i.e., in a group G with operation * for every
, there is only element
such that
, e being the identity.
- The inverse a of
, then the inverse of
is a , i.e.,
.
- The inverse of the product of two elements of a group G is the product of the inverse taken in the inverse order i.e.
.
- Cancellation laws holds in a group, i.e., if
are any elements of a group G, then
(left cancellation law),
(right cancellation law).
- If G is a group with binary operation
and if
and
are any elements of G, then the linear equations
and
have unique solutions in G.
- The left inverse of an element is also its right inverse, i.e.
.
