** There are four criteria for the group: closure, identity, inverse property, and associativity.

The lack of any one of these properties means that the set and operation do not form a group.

The set is closed on multiplication.

The identity is the element that when multiplied by other elements does not change them. The identity for this operation is 1, since 1 * -1 = -1, 1 * 0 = 0 and 1 * 1 = 1.

Inverses are pairs of elements that give you 1 when you multiply them. For example -1 * -1 = 1 so -1 is its own inverse. 1 * 1 = 1 so 1 is also its own inverse. However, 0 does not have an inverse because there is nothing you can multiply by 0 to get 1.

Since there is an element without an inverse this is not a group. **
