    Only homomorphism from rationals to integers

    Thanks for your reply.Perhaps it is serving as counterexample to what the question was given.In some other book the same question was there with <Q,+> instead of <Q,.> .Maybe the solution provided by the author is wrong

    Only homomorphism from rationals to integers

    Sorry for bad image quality. Show that only homomorphism from the group <Q*,.> to <Z,+> is the zero homomorphism where Q*=Q-{0} Solution Let 0≠f be a homomorphism from <Q*,.> to <Z,+> Let f(1)=n\inZ. Suppose f(1)=0 Then f(x)=f(1+1+...+1) if x>0,x\inZ =x f(1)=0 This is the step I...

    Problem about normal subgroups

    x=bc \Rightarrow a-1bac\inBC Also a-1bca\inBC Now a-1b=a1 for some a1\inA\Rightarrowa1ca\inBC a1(aa-1)ca\inBC (a1a)c1\inBC for some c1\inC a2c1\inBC Cant still figure out

    Only homomorphism from rationals to integers

    Kindly see the attached image.i can't understand the step where he write f(x)=f(1+1+...+1)=xf(1).But the homomorphism is from <Q,.> to <Z,+>

    Problem about normal subgroups

    Homework Statement If A,B and C are normal subgroups of G where B\subseteqA show that A\bigcapBC=B(A\bigcapC) Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution Let x\inA\bigcapBC.then x\inA and x\inBC Now as B\subseteqA thus BA=A.thus left side is BA\bigcapBC Dont know how to proceed.

    Group theory finding order of element and inverse

    Homework Statement Let a and b be elements of a group,with a^2=e , b^6=e and a.b=b^4.a find its order and express its inverse in form of a^m.b^n Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution (ab)^2=(ab)(ab)=(ab)(b^4.a)=a(b^5)a (ab)^3=a(b^5)a(ab)=a(b^5)(a^2)b=a(b^6)=ae=a it...
