Problem 1. In each of the following problems, determine if the given is a group homomorphism. 1.1.4: Z/12Z → Z/6Z given by ([k]) = [2k] for all k Є Z. 1.2. Let G and H be any two groups, for all gЄ G and hЄ H. and let : Gx H → G be given by (g, h) = g 1.3. & : GL2(R) → GL2 (R), given by (A) = AT for all A = GL2(R). 1.4. Let G be any abelian group, and let : G → G be given by (g) = g² for all g Є G. Remark. In Problem 1.1. you should explain whether or not is a function at all: is it well-defined? That is, if k and are both representatives of the same class in Z/12Z, do we have ([k]) = ([l])?

1. 2. Are the groups Z/2Z x Z/12Z and Z/4Z x Z/6Z isomorphic? Why or why not?

10.3.3. Let G = Z/4Z × Z/6Z, and let H be the subgroup of G generated by (2,2). (a) What are the elements of H? (b) What are the elements of G/H? (c) Find a familiar group that is isomorphic to G/H.

11.1.12. Let G be a group, and assume that H and K are normal subgroups of G with trivial intersection. Further assume that G = HK. Prove that GH × K.
