Abstract Algebra 1 a) Prove that if G is a cyclic group of prime order than G has exactly two subgroups. What are they? 1 b) Let G be a group and H a subgroup of G. Let x ∈ G. Proof that if for a, b ∈ H and ax = b then x ∈ H. (If you use any group axioms, show them)
Suppose that a sequence {Zn} satisfies Izn+1-Znl < 2-n for all n e N. Prove that {z.) is Cauchy. Is this result true under the condition Irn +1-Fml < rt Let xi = 1 and xn +1 = (Zn + 1)/3 for all n e N. Find the first five terms in this sequence. Use induction to show that rn > 1/2 for all n and find the limit N. Prove that this sequence is non-increasing, convergent,
3 Let p and q be prime numbers and let G be a non-cyclic group of order pq. Let H be a subgroup of G.Show that either H is cyclic or H-G. 12 - Let I and J, be ideals in R. In, the homomorphismJ f: (!+J a → a+J use the First Isomorphism Theorem to prove that I+J
Let n be a nonnegative integer and let F 22 + 1 be a Fermat number. Prove that if is a prime number, then either n=0 or 3--1mod F. [Hint: If n 2 1, use the law of quadratic reciprocity to evaluate the Legendre symbol (3/F). Now use Euler's Criterion (Theorem 4.4).] Let n be a nonnegative integer and let F 22 + 1 be a Fermat number. Prove that if is a prime number, then either n=0 or 3--1mod...
Let p and n be integers. Prove that, if p is prime, then gcd(p, n) = p or gcd(p, n) = 1. . . (i.) Using proof by contrapositive (ii.) Using proof by contradiction
