Additive Group

An additive group may refer to:

  • an abelian group, when it is written using the symbol + for its binary operation
  • a group scheme representing the underlying-additive-group functor
  • the elements of a ring (mathematics) considered as a group under addition

Famous quotes containing the word group:

    “We begin with friendships, and all our youth is a reconnoitering and recruiting of the holy fraternity they shall combine for the salvation of men. But so the remoter stars seem a nebula of united light, yet there is no group which a telescope will not resolve; and the dearest friends are separated by impassable gulfs.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
