Let G be the group of symmetries of an equilateral triangle. Recall that G has 6 elements: the identity symmetry e, two nontrivial rotations, and three flips. Let r be be a rotation 120o counter-clockwise, so that the two nontrivial rotations in G are r and r2. To keep track of the flips, let A be the lower left vertex of the triangle, B the top vertex, and C the lower right vertex of the triangle; and write fa, fb,...

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...

For an abelian group G, let tG = {x E G: x has finite order} denote its torsion subgroup. Show that t defines a functor Ab -> Ab if one defines t(f) = f|tG (f restricted on tG) for every homomorphism f. If f is injective, then t(f) is injective. Give an example of a surjective homomorphism f for which t(f) is not surjective.
