- If p1,p2,...,pr are distinct primes, prove that any two abelian groups that have order n=p1p2...pr are isomorphic.arrow_forwardSuppose that the abelian group G can be written as the direct sum G=C22C3C3, where Cn is a cyclic group of order n. Prove that G has elements of order 12 but no element of order greater than 12. Find the number of distinct elements of G that have order 12.arrow_forwardTrue or False Label each of the following statements as either true or false. 3. Every abelian group is cyclic.arrow_forward
- Label each of the following statements as either true or false. Every cyclic group is abelian.arrow_forwardProve that if r and s are relatively prime positive integers, then any cyclic group of order rs is the direct sum of a cyclic group of order r and a cyclic group of order s.arrow_forward11. Show that is a generating set for the additive abelian group if and only ifarrow_forward
- 16. Suppose that is an abelian group with respect to addition, with identity element Define a multiplication in by for all . Show that forms a ring with respect to these operations.arrow_forwardProve or disprove that H={ hGh1=h } is a subgroup of the group G if G is abelian.arrow_forward31. (See Exercise 30.) Prove that if and are primes and is a nonabelian group of order , then the center of is the trivial subgroup . Exercise 30: 30. Let be a group with center . Prove that if is cyclic, then is abelian.arrow_forward
