Let H be a subgroup of a group G. Let ∼H and ρH be the equivalence relation in G introduced in class given by x∼H y⇐⇒x−1y∈H, xρHy⇐⇒xy−1 ∈H. The equivalence classes are the left and the right cosets of H in G, respectively. Prove that the functionφ: G/∼H →G/ρH given by φ(xH) = Hx−1 is well-defined and bijective. This proves that the number of left and right cosets are equal.

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,...
