Let G be a cyclic group is Abelian integers, generated by a (constant element) and x, y (variables) ∈ G. Then there are positive integers k and m such that
so
Thus, the group g is an Abelian group.
EXAMPLE:
If G is a cyclic group of even order, then prove that there is an only one subgroup of order 2 in G.
SOLUTION:
Let
Be a cyclic group of order 2n, where n is a positive integer.
By proof, result G be a cyclic group of order n generated by a.then, for each
positive divider d of n, there is a unique subgroup (of G) of order d.
If a positive integer d divide |G|, then G has exactly one subgroup of order d.
Now
|G| = 2n and 2 divides 2n, so G has only one subgroup of order 2.
EXAMPLE:
Find all the subgroup of a cyclic group of order 12.cyclic group is abelian integers
Solution:
Let G be a cyclic group of order 12 and ‘a’ be a generator. Then the elements of G are.
By theorem
G be a cyclic group of order n generated by a.then, for each
positive divider d of n, there is a unique subgroup (of G) of order d.
1,2,3,4,5………..12
Therefore, G has
The subgroup of order 1 Which is {e}
The subgroup of order 2 Which is
The subgroup of order 3 Which is
The subgroup of order 4 which is
The subgroup of order 6 which is
The subgroup of order 12 Which is G itself.
