Furthermore, the symmetric difference is shown to be algebraically analogous to the modular difference of two numbers, which also means that a Boolean ring is generally impossible. Finally, a new method to prove equivalent relations in a Boolean algebra is also given.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-04-05T04:37:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03G05", "03G25" ], "keywords": [ "boolean algebra", "minimal axiomatization", "axiomatic system", "equivalent relations", "symmetric difference" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 13, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
