Identity Element of Natural Number Multiplication is One
Let $1$ be the element one of $\N$. Then $1$ is the identity element of multiplication: :$\forall n \in \N: n \times 1 = n = 1 \times n$
Firstly, by definition of multiplication: {{begin-eqn}} {{eqn | l = n \times 1 | r = \paren {n \times 0} + n }} {{eqn | r = n }} {{end-eqn}} Next, recall that multiplication is recursively defined as: :$\forall m, n \in \N: \begin{cases} m \times 0 & = 0 \\ m \times \paren {n + 1} & = m \times n + m \end{cases}$ ...

Real Numbers under Addition Modulo 1 form Group
Let $S = \set {x \in \R: 0 \le x < 1}$. Let $\circ: S \times S \to S$ be the operation defined as: :$x \circ y = x + y - \floor {x + y}$ That is, $\circ$ is defined as addition modulo $1$. Then $\struct {S, \circ}$ is a group.
First note that Modulo Addition is Well-Defined. Taking the group axioms in turn:

Union of Local Bases is Basis
Let $T = \struct {X, \tau}$ be a topological space. For each $x \in X$, let $\BB_x$ be a local basis at $x$ which consists entirely of open sets. Then $\ds \BB = \bigcup_{x \mathop \in X} \BB_x$ is a basis for the topology $\tau$.
Let $U \in \tau$ be any open set of $T$. Consider any $x \in U$. Then, by definition of local basis, there exists a $B_x \in \BB_x$ such that $B_x \subseteq U$. Also by definition of local basis: :$x \in B_x$ So by Set Union Preserves Subsets: :$U = \ds \bigcup_{x \mathop \in U} \set x \subseteq \bigcup_{x \mathop \in ...
