- Find all subgroups of the quaternion group.arrow_forward19. a. Show that is isomorphic to , where the group operation in each of , and is addition. b. Show that is isomorphic to , where all group operations are addition.arrow_forwardLet G=1,i,1,i under multiplication, and let G=4=[ 0 ],[ 1 ],[ 2 ],[ 3 ] under addition. Find an isomorphism from G to G that is different from the one given in Example 5 of this section. Example 5 Consider G=1,i,1,i under multiplication and G=4=[ 0 ],[ 1 ],[ 2 ],[ 3 ] under addition. In order to define a mapping :G4 that is an isomorphism, one requirement is that must map the identity element 1 of G to the identity element [ 0 ] of 4 (part a of Theorem 3.30). Thus (1)=[ 0 ]. Another requirement is that inverses must map onto inverses (part b of Theorem 3.30). That is, if we take (i)=[ 1 ] then (i1)=((i))1=[ 1 ] Or (i)=[ 3 ] The remaining elements 1 in G and [ 2 ] in 4 are their own inverses, so we take (1)=[ 2 ]. Thus the mapping :G4 defined by (1)=[ 0 ], (i)=[ 1 ], (1)=[ 2 ], (i)=[ 3 ]arrow_forward

Prove that each element of G appears in the multiplication table for G exactly once in each row and exactly once in each column.arrow_forwardExercises 18. Suppose and let be defined by . Prove or disprove that is an automorphism of the additive group .arrow_forward
- Prove that the Cartesian product 24 is an abelian group with respect to the binary operation of addition as defined in Example 11. (Sec. 3.4,27b, Sec. 5.1,53,) Example 11. Consider the additive groups 2 and 4. To avoid any unnecessary confusion we write [ a ]2 and [ a ]4 to designate elements in 2 and 4, respectively. The Cartesian product of 2 and 4 can be expressed as 24={ ([ a ]2,[ b ]4)[ a ]22,[ b ]44 } Sec. 3.4,27b 27. Prove or disprove that each of the following groups with addition as defined in Exercises 52 of section 3.1 is cyclic. a. 23 b. 24 Sec. 5.1,53 53. Rework Exercise 52 with the direct sum 24.arrow_forward11. Show that defined by is not a homomorphism.arrow_forward21. Prove that if a ring has a finite number of elements, then the characteristic of is a positive integer.arrow_forward
