1.1 Group Theory

1. How many generators are there in the finite cyclic group of order n?

Proof. content...

2. Let N, N ′ be normal subgroups of G, G′ , respectively. For a homomorphism ϕ : G → G′ ,

define ϕ : G/N → G′ /N ′ by ϕ(ḡ) = ϕ(g) for g ∈ G. When is ϕ well defined?

Proof. content...

3. Give definitions or state theorems:

(a) Normal group

(b) Free abelian group
(c) Integral domain
(d) Two-sided ideal
(e) Quotient field (or field of quotient)
(f) Cayley’s theorem

4. (a) State and prove the Euler’s theorem.

(b) Find the remainder of 71000 when divided by 24.

5. Let G, G′ be groups and f : G → G′ be a surjective homomorphism. Prove that there is a

one-to-one correspondence between the set of subgroups of G′ and the set of subgroups G
containing ker f .

6. How many abelian groups of order 24 · 33 · 76 · 11 are there up to isomorphism?

7. Let G be a cyclic group of order n. Show that there is one to one correspondence between
the set of subgroups of G and the set of divisors of n.

8. Prove that every group of order p2 (p prime) is abelian.

9. Show that the following statements are equivalent:

i. X is a G-set.

on X.

10. Prove or disprove the following statements:

(a) If G is a finite abelian group of order n, then the number of conjugacy classes of G is n.
(b) If a group G has only two conjugacy classes, then G has order 2.
