    Normal Subgroups, Centralizers and Semi-Direct Products

    1. I f A and B are normal subgroups of G such that G/A and G/B are abelian, prove that G/(A intersect B) is abelian 2. Let H and K be groups, let f be a homomorphism from K into Aut(H) and as usual identify H and K as subgroups of G= H x_f K( x_f denotes product of H and K under f). Prove that C_K(H)= Ker(f) ps. C_K(H) is

    Why every odd order subgroup has to be subgroup of cyclic odd

    Please see the attached file first. I did the proof, but it's weak, since I can't find a way to argue why every odd order subgroup has to be a subgroup of the cyclic odd order subgroup K of index 2, and by the divisibility argument it still could be a subgroup of G and not to be contained entirely in K.

    Jill, Karen, and Betsy studied a total of 93 hours last week. Jill's and Karen's study time totaled only one-half as much as Betsy's. If Jill studied 3 hours more than Karen, then how many hours did each one of the girls spend studying?

    Matrices, Eigenvectors, Eigenvalues and Inverses

    Determining the equation for a matrix and confirming the inverse, eigenvalues Details: I have think the answer to question (a) is theta^2 [(1-p)I + pJ]. But when I am multiplying the sigma and the sigma inverse I still have "stuff" at the tail end of the identity......being added. I know I should be left with the identity if t

    Prove that every regular tournament is strong.

    Prove that every regular tournament is strong. Hints Here we need to first figure out something more about outdegrees and indegrees and orders of regular digraphs. Try to find a regular digraps with 3, 4, 5 ,6 vertices, and generalize. D is a regular tournament if there is k such that outdegree x = k and indegree x = n-k

    Advanced Linear Algebra with Direct Sum Question

    I'm attaching a PDF file with a question about finding nonzero subspace along with the property of direct sum. I wonder if anyone who is familiar with Advanced Linear Algebra material and can provide a detail explanation.
