(a) Show that for nonempty HCG, then (H, *) (G, *) a,b Ha*b¹ € H. (b) For some fixed element a € G, define the set C(a) = {rG: a* x = x *a}. Prove that (C(a), *) (G, *). (c) Define the set Z(G) = {z EG: a*x=x*a for every a E G}. Prove that (Z, *) (G, *). [Here, the symbol means subgroup. You may suppress the operation and use product notation, i.e, write ab-¹ to mean a * b-¹, etc.]
