Let G' be the derived subgroup. Prove: a) If G' is a subgroup of H and H is a subgroup of G, show that H is normal in G; b) If K is a normal subgroup of G, then K' is a normal subgroup of G c) Suppose f:G --> H is an epimorphism, with ker(f)=K, then H is abelian iff G' is a subgroup of K. I need a detailed proof of t
Let G be a group, not necessarily finite, and let H be subgroup G. (a) Prove that U = intersection of all x in G xHx^-1 is the largest normal subgroup of G contained in H. (b) Show that no proper subgroup H of A_5 contains six distinct Sylow 5-subgroups. I need a detailed rigorous proof of this to study please.
If |G|=p^n, where p is a prime, show that G has subgroups G_0, G_1, . . ., G_n with 1= G_0 <= G_1 <= . . . <= G_n =G such that [G_i : G_{i-1}] = p, 1 <= i <= n. I need a rigorous, detailed proof of this to study please.
Let A and B be finite subgroups of G. Even though AB need not be a subgroup of G, show that |AB||A n B| = |A||B|. (Hint: Define (a_1,b_1)~(a_2,b_2) iff a_1b_1 = a_2b_2. Prove that ~ is an equivalence relation and examine the equivalence classes.) I need a detailed and rigorous proof to study for a test p

1. (3 points) - If A  B and B  C, can you conclude that A  C? Can you conclude that A  C? Definitions of symbols: ⊂ "is a proper subset of" ⊆ "is a subset of" ⊄ "is not a subset of" 1) Yes. All of the elements in A are in B, and all of the elements in B are in
Hi, I need help with this assignment. I will be using this to check my work, so it very important that all work is shown so that I have a clear idea of how each problem is done. I am only interested in the completed assignment- not just some of it. Thank you very much for your help! :) (Please see the attached file) Instruct
Prove: A group G is the union of 3 proper subgroups iff there exists an epimorphism between G and the Klein 4-group.
Use the fact that any finitely generated subgroup of (Q,+), (the rationals under addition), is cyclic to show that (Q,+)+(Q,+), (the direct sum of two copies of (Q,+)), is not isomorphic to (Q,+). The first part of this was showing that any finitely generated subgroup of (Q,+) is cyclic and I understand that part and really had
Two movie theaters, UAI and UAII, start their movies at 7:00 p.m. The movie at UAI takes 75 minutes and the movie at UAII takes 90 minutes. If the shows run continuously, when will they again start at the same time?
Retirement Annuity - When she is 30, Sue starts making annual deposits of $2,000 into a bondfund that pays 8% annual interest compounded continuously. Assuming that her deposits are made as a contiuous income flow, how much money will be in her account if she retires at age 55?

In the textile industry, filament and yarn sizes are reported in denier which is defined as the mass in grams of a length of 9000 meters. If a synthetic fiber has an average specific gravity of 1.32 and a filament of this material has a denier of 5.0, what is the mass per unit length in pounds-mass per yard? What is the cross se
Calculate the ratio of the area to the volume for a unit cube, a unit sphere inscribed inside the cube, and a right cylinder inscribed inside the cube. Next, for each having a unit volume (i.e., all three solids have the same volume) calculate the area-to-volume ratios for a sphere, cube, and cylinder.
Suppose that we wished to develop a base three number system to be used in place of either a decimal system or a base two binary system a-- How many separate symbols would we need in this system? In the binary system, we can get away with only two, 0 and 1. Will this work in a base three system? How would you write the decim
