Any nonzero element of the quotient ring will differ by a null sequence from such a sequence, and by taking pointwise inversion we can find a representative inverse element.

Once the axioms were clarified ( that inverse elements should be required, for example ), the subject could proceed autonomously, without reference to the transformation group origins of those studies.

Also, the inverse element of addition ( the additive inverse ) is the opposite of any number, that is, adding the opposite of any number to the number itself yields the additive identity, 0.

The group property of existence of inverse elements follows easily from the fact that, in a Dedekind domain, every non-zero ideal ( except " R " ) is a product of prime ideals.

In 1882, considering the same question, Heinrich M . Weber realized the connection and gave a similar definition that involved the cancellation property but omitted the existence of the inverse element, which was sufficient in his context ( finite groups ).

It can be shown that, as it is the case with real interval arithmetic, there is no distributivity between addition and multiplication of complex interval numbers except for certain special cases, and inverse elements do not always exist for complex interval numbers.

This does not form a group because not every non-zero element has a corresponding inverse element, for example 6 \ circ 3 = 9 but there is no a \ in \ { 1, \ cdots, 9 \ } such that 9 \ circ a = 6 ..

The operation must satisfy certain constraints for it to determine a group : It must be associative, there must be an identity element ( an element which, when combined with another element using the operation, results in the original element, such as adding zero to a number or multiplying it by one ), and for every element there must be an inverse element.
