Boolean algebra and closure axiom












1












$begingroup$


A Boolean algebra is an algebraic system (B,$∨$,$∧$,$¬$), where $∨$ and $∧$ are binary, and $¬$ is a unary operation.



One of the Boolean algebra axiom is: If $a$ and $b$ are elements of $B$, then $(a ∨ b)$ and $(a ∧ b)$ are in $B$.



i.e. the set $B = (1111,0011,0110,1010,0000,1100,1001,0101)$ I can't use as carrier for Boolean algebra, because the result of operation $0011 ∨ 0110 = 0111$ is't in set $B$.



Is it correct? Do I correctly think about closure for $∨$ and $∧$ operators?

    @RobertIsrael may be you can send me link to book which explains how can I prove, that some set with operations, defined on it, is Boolean algebra?
