A group G is a simple group if the only normal subgroups of G are G...
A group G is a simple group if the only normal subgroups of G are G itself and {e}. In other words, G is simple if G has no non-trivial proper normal subgroups. Algebraists have proven (using more advanced techniques than ones we’ve discussed) that An is a simple group for n ≥ 5. Using this fact, prove that for n ≥ 5, An has no subgroup of order n!/4 . (This generalizes HW5,#3 as well as our counterexample from...

Let G be a group with subgroups H and K. (a) Prove that H ∩ K must be a subgroup of G. (b) Give an example to show that H ∪ K is not necessarily a subgroup of G. Note: Your answer to part (a) should be a general proof that the set H ∩ K is closed under the operation of G, includes the identity element of G, and contains the inverse in G of each of its elements,...

Suppose that a cyclic group G has exactly three subgroups: G itself, e, and a subgroup of order p, where p is a prime greater than 2. Determine |G|
A subgroup H of a group G is called a normal subgroup if gH=Hg for all...
A subgroup H of a group G is called a normal subgroup if gH=Hg for all g ∈ G. Every Group contains at least two normal subgroups: the subgroup consisting of the identity element only {e}; and the entire group G. If G=S(n) show that A(n) (the subgroup of even permuations) is also a normal subgroup of G.

Consider the group S3. (i) Show that S3 has precisely six subgroups, of which precisely three are normal. (ii) Describe the equivalence relation associated to each subgroup, as well as the left cosets and the right cosets. (iii) Describe the group structure of all quotients of S3 modulo one of the three normal subgroups.

Let p,q be prime numbers, not necessarily distinct. If a group G has order pq, prove that any proper subgroup (meaning a subgroup not equal to G itself) must be cyclic. Hint: what are the possible sizes of the subgroups?

Let G be a finite group, and suppose that H is normal subgroup of G. Show that, for every g ∈ G, the order of gH in G/H must divide the order of g in G. What is the order of the coset [4]42 + 〈[6]42〉 in Z42/〈[6]42〉? Find an example to show that the order of gH in G/H does not always determine the order of g in G. That is, find an example of a group G, and...
