Give up is two words. Nevertheless... The police asked the fugitive to give up and lay down his weapons.
Give up is called a phrasal verb and functions as a single word. It has more than one meaning. It has the meaning of surrender (as in the sentence above) and also the meaning of to stop doing something.
I want to give up smoking.
Because it is a verb give up can also have other forms eg giving up / gives up / gave up / has given up
