The exponential map from the additive reals to the positive reals
Example
Let be the real numbers with addition, and let be the positive real numbers with multiplication. The exponential function gives a map with . Thus it is a homomorphism. Its kernel is , because only for . Thus the map is injective. Each is , so the map is onto. Thus is an isomorphism.
Remarks
The inverse isomorphism is the natural logarithm.
