Question
The I,I,iii within the exercise are not required as it is an example. A and B are required pleas
This question concerns the following exercise.
Exercise
Each of the following is a group.
. (G, X21) where G = {1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 16}
. (H,*) where H = {e, r, s, t, u, v} and is given by the following

(i) For each of these two groups, determine whether it is cyclic, and if it is cyclic
write down a generator for the group.
(ii) Write down an isomorphism from one of the two groups to the group (Z6, +6).
(a) Explain why the following solution to this exercise is incorrect,
identifying three errors or significant omissions. For each error or
omission, explain the mistake that the writer of the solution has made.
(There may be more than three errors or omissions, but you need
identify only three. These should not include statements or omissions
that follow logically from earlier errors or omissions.)

Solution (incorrect!)
(i) Group G:
Modular multiplication is commutative, so G is abelian.
Hence, by Theorem B35, G is cyclic.
In (G, X21) we have:
22 =
2³ = 8,
4,
24 = 16,
25
16 ×21 2 = 11,
26 11 X21 2 = 1.
Thus (2) = {1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 16} = G, and hence 2 is a generator
for G.
Group H:
We can see from the table that
(e) = {e, r, s, t, u, v},
(s) = {s, e,r, u, v, t},
(u) = {u, v,t, s, e, r},
Thus (H, *) is cyclic, because every element of H is a generator.
(ii) (G, X21) and (Z6, +6) are both cyclic groups of order 6, so they are
isomorphic and we can find an isomorphism by using Strategy B6.
From part (i), 2 is a generator for G. We choose the generator 1
for Z6. This gives the following isomorphism:
: (G, X21)→→ (Z6, +6)
1 0
(r) = {r, s, e, v, t, u},
(t) = {t, u, v, e, r, s},
(v) = {v, t, u, r, s, e}.
