Question:

(a) Let G be an (additive) abelian group. Define an operation of multiplication in G by ab = 0 (for all a,b ϵ G). Then G is a ring.

(b) Let S be the set of all subsets of some fixed set U. For A,B ϵ S, define A + B = (A - B) U (B - A) and AB = A ∩ B. Then S is a ring. Is S commutative? Does it have an identity?
