I seem to be having a difficult time trying to figure out how to do this problem. It's from a non-graded homework assignment. I was able to get every other problem except for this one.Let R = Z, together with the two operations:
a + b := a + b + 3 and ab := ab + 3a + 3b + 6

Let S = Z, together with the two operations:
a + b := a + b - 2 and ab := -ab + 2a + 2b - 2

Assume ordinary addition and multiplication in Z and that R and S are rings.

Prove that R is isomorphic to S.

As a start, find what the zero and unit elements are in $R$ and $S$. An isomorphism must take the zero element of $R$ to the zero element of $S$, and the same for the unit elements.
 
I asked online questions about Proposition 2.1.1: The answer I got is the following: I have some questions about the answer I got. When the person answering says: ##1.## Is the map ##\mathfrak{q}\mapsto \mathfrak{q} A _\mathfrak{p}## from ##A\setminus \mathfrak{p}\to A_\mathfrak{p}##? But I don't understand what the author meant for the rest of the sentence in mathematical notation: ##2.## In the next statement where the author says: How is ##A\to...
The following are taken from the two sources, 1) from this online page and the book An Introduction to Module Theory by: Ibrahim Assem, Flavio U. Coelho. In the Abelian Categories chapter in the module theory text on page 157, right after presenting IV.2.21 Definition, the authors states "Image and coimage may or may not exist, but if they do, then they are unique up to isomorphism (because so are kernels and cokernels). Also in the reference url page above, the authors present two...
When decomposing a representation ##\rho## of a finite group ##G## into irreducible representations, we can find the number of times the representation contains a particular irrep ##\rho_0## through the character inner product $$ \langle \chi, \chi_0\rangle = \frac{1}{|G|} \sum_{g\in G} \chi(g) \chi_0(g)^*$$ where ##\chi## and ##\chi_0## are the characters of ##\rho## and ##\rho_0##, respectively. Since all group elements in the same conjugacy class have the same characters, this may be...
