Composition of maps

Definition
Let f : X 7! Y , g : Y 7! Z be two maps. The map h : X 7! Z which is
defined by h(x) = g (f (x)), 8x 2 X is called the composition of g and f .
We denote by h = g f .

Examples
Given two following maps f : R 7! R, x 7! f (x) = x 2 and g : R 7! R,
x 7! g (x) = 2x 1. Determine f g and g f ?

Remark
In general, f g 6= g f.

Inverse map

Definition
Let f : X 7! Y be a bijective map. The map f 1 : Y 7! X such that
f 1 (y ) = x , f (x) = y is called the inverse map of f .

Properties
1 h (g f ) = (h g ) f 1 1
1 f f =f f = Id
2 f Id = Id f =f 1 1 1
1) 1
2 (g f) =f g
3 (f =f

Injectivity, Surjectivity, Bijectivity of the composition of maps


If f and g are injective, then g f is injective;
If f and g are surjective, then g f is surjective;
If f and g are bijective, then g f is bijective.

Binary operations

Definition
Let G be a set. A binary operation is a map of sets:

⇤:G ⇥G !G

For ease of notation we write ⇤(a, b) = a ⇤ b 8a, b 2 G

When we are talking about a set G , together with a fixed binary operation
⇤, we often write (G , ⇤)

Example
p
Let B = {a + b 2|a, b 2 Q}. Determine whether the operations of
addition and multiplication are the binary operation on B.

Binary operations

Properties of binary operations


Let ⇤ be a binary operation on G
1) ⇤ is said to be commutative if x ⇤ y = y ⇤ x 8x, y 2 G .
2) ⇤ is said to be associative if (x ⇤ y ) ⇤ z = x ⇤ (y ⇤ z) 8x, y 2 G .

Examples
Determine whether the following binary operation ⇤ is commutative,
associative?
a) x ⇤ y = xy 2 8x, y 2 R
b) x ⇤ y = x y 8x, y 2 R+
c) (x1 , x2 ) ⇤ (y1 , y2 ) = (x1 + y1 , x2 + y2 ) 8(x1 , x2 ), (y1 , y2 ) 2 R2

Groups

Definition
A group is a set G , together with a binary operation ⇤, such that the
following hold:
1) (Associativity): (a ⇤ b) ⇤ c = a ⇤ (b ⇤ c) 8a, b, c 2 G
2) (Existence of identity): 9e 2 G such that a ⇤ e = e ⇤ a = a 8a 2 G
3) (Existence of inverses): Given a 2 G , 9b 2 G such that
a ⇤ b = b ⇤ a = e. The inverse element is denoted by a0

If (G , ⇤) satisfies only (1)), then G is called a semigroup.

Definition
A group (G , ⇤) is called Abelian if it also satisfies x ⇤ y = y ⇤ x 8x, y 2 G
