The identity property of addition is a property of a set S with some binary function + (referred to as addition) defined over SxS so that whenever a and b are elements of S, +(a,b) = c is also an element of S. It is common to write +(a,b) as a + b and the definition of such a function creates an algebraic structure over S, usually only as part of some larger structure, ie., a group or a field.

The identity property of addition is an axiom that serves to further restrict the type of function + is allowed to be. Specifically, it states that there exists an element of S (for example e), such that for each element a of S, a + e = a. e is usually written as 0, since it behaves like 0 in standard addition over real numbers (0 is the additive identity in the field of real numbers).

Is subtraction an identity property?

Subtraction is not an identity property but it does have an identity property. The identity is 0 and each number is its own inverse with respect to subtraction. However, this is effectively the same as the inverse property of addition so there is no real need to define it as a separate property.
