Lagrange's Theorem

Proposition Let H be a subgroup of G with g \in G and define a map \phi:H \rightarrow gH by \phi(h) = gh. The map \phi is bijective; hence, the number of elements in H is the same as the number of elements in gH.

Lagrange's Theorem

suggests that groups of prime order \(p\) must somehow look like \({\mathbb Z}_p\).

In fact, we can say more about when two cycles have the same length.

Manje Akukho kalkuli yokuxazulula le nto, kodwa amaphuzu ayo anga kalkuli. Zama enye ngezansi, noma ubhale yakho.

Qhubeka usebenza

I-akhawunti emahhala ifaka iziphawulo kulesifundo ngasinye, irekhodi lokuthi yini oqedile, izinkinga zakho ezixazululiwe endaweni eyodwa, nodokotela owaziyo ongabuza mayelana nalekhasi. I-matematics ivulekile kubo bonke, noma ngabe babhalise noma cha.

Chofoza noma yiluphi uphawu lwesibonakaliso ukuze uthole ukuchaza okuphelele, isithombe, kanye nokuthi iyiphi inhlamvu ekhona ekhuluma ngaso.

Imibuzo abantu bebuza

What is a group, in plain words?

A set with one operation that is associative, has an identity, and lets every element be undone. Symmetries of any object form a group. That is where the idea came from.

What is the difference between a ring and a field?

A ring has addition and multiplication that behave like the integers (you cannot always divide); a field is a ring where every non-zero element has a reciprocal, like the rationals or the reals.

Amangxenye wale khasi aguqulwe kusuka Judson, Abstract Algebra: Theory and Applications (GFDL 1.3). I-condensed futhi iphinde icaciswe lapha; amaphutha awusizo.
