- 42. For an arbitrary set , the power set was defined in Section by , and addition in was defined by Prove that is a group with respect to this operation of addition. If has distinct elements, state the order of .arrow_forwardFind subgroups H and K of the group S(A) in example 3 of section 3.1 such that HK is not a subgroup of S(A). From Example 3 of section 3.1: A=1,2,3 and S(A) is a set of all permutations defined on A.arrow_forward(See Exercise 31.) Suppose G is a group that is transitive on 1,2,...,n, and let ki be the subgroup that leaves each of the elements 1,2,...,i fixed: Ki=gGg(k)=kfork=1,2,...,i For i=1,2,...,n. Prove that G=Sn if and only if HiHj for all pairs i,j such that ij and in1. A subgroup H of the group Sn is called transitive on B=1,2,....,n if for each pair i,j of elements of B there exists an element hH such that h(i)=j. Suppose G is a group that is transitive on 1,2,....,n, and let Hi be the subgroup of G that leaves i fixed: Hi=gGg(i)=i For i=1,2,...,n. Prove that G=nHi.arrow_forward
- Let H and K be subgroups of a group G and K a subgroup of H. If the order of G is 24 and the order of K is 3, what are all the possible orders of H?arrow_forward40. Find subgroups and of the group in example of the section such that the set defined in Exercise is not a subgroup of . From Example of section : andis a set of all permutations defined on . defined in Exercise :arrow_forward23. Prove that if and are normal subgroups of such that , then for allarrow_forward
- If a is an element of order m in a group G and ak=e, prove that m divides k.arrow_forwardDecide whether each of the following sets is a subgroup of G={ 1,1,i,i } under multiplication. If a set is not a subgroup, give a reason why is not. a. { 1,1 } b. { 1,i } c. { i,i } d. { 1,i }arrow_forwardIn Exercises and, the given table defines an operation of multiplication on the set. In each case, find a condition in Definition that fails to hold, and thereby show that is not a group. 15. See Figure.arrow_forward
- In Exercises 15 and 16, the given table defines an operation of multiplication on the set S={ e,a,b,c }. In each case, find a condition in Definition 3.1 that fails to hold, and thereby show that S is not a group. See Figure 3.7 e a b c e e a b c a e a b c b e a b c c e a b carrow_forward22. If and are both normal subgroups of , prove that is a normal subgroup of .arrow_forwardIn Exercises 3 and 4, let be the octic group in Example 12 of section 4.1, with its multiplication table requested in Exercise 20 of the same section. Let be the subgroup of the octic group . Find the distinct left cosets of in , write out their elements, partition into left cosets of , and give . Find the distinct right cosets of in , write out their elements, and partition into right cosets of . Example 12 Using the notational convention described in the preceding paragraph, we shall write out the dihedral group of rigid motions of a square The elements of the group are as follows: 1. the identity mapping 2. the counterclockwise rotation through about the center 3. the counterclockwise rotation through about the center 4. the counterclockwise rotation through about the center 5. the reflection about the horizontal line 6. the reflection about the diagonal 7. the reflection about the vertical line 8. the reflection about the diagonal . The dihedral group of rigid motions of the square is also known as the octic group. The multiplication table for is requested in Exercise 20 of this section.arrow_forward
