Find all subgroups of U(14), the group of units of $\mathbb{Z}_{14}$.

My attempt:

U(14)={1, 3, 5, 9, 11, 13} and the operation is multiplication modulo 14. Do I just find the subgroups generated by each of the elements in U(14)? What about subgroups generated by two elements?

You have an abelian group of order $6$. There are, up to isomorphism, only two groups of order $6$, and only one of those is abelian. Thus, your group is cyclic.

This means you have exactly:

1 group of order 1
1 group of order 2
1 group of order 3
1 group of order 6

each of which will be generated by a single element. I suggest finding a generator (element) of order 6, first.
 
I asked online questions about Proposition 2.1.1: The answer I got is the following: I have some questions about the answer I got. When the person answering says: ##1.## Is the map ##\mathfrak{q}\mapsto \mathfrak{q} A _\mathfrak{p}## from ##A\setminus \mathfrak{p}\to A_\mathfrak{p}##? But I don't understand what the author meant for the rest of the sentence in mathematical notation: ##2.## In the next statement where the author says: How is ##A\to...
The following are taken from the two sources, 1) from this online page and the book An Introduction to Module Theory by: Ibrahim Assem, Flavio U. Coelho. In the Abelian Categories chapter in the module theory text on page 157, right after presenting IV.2.21 Definition, the authors states "Image and coimage may or may not exist, but if they do, then they are unique up to isomorphism (because so are kernels and cokernels). Also in the reference url page above, the authors present two...
When decomposing a representation ##\rho## of a finite group ##G## into irreducible representations, we can find the number of times the representation contains a particular irrep ##\rho_0## through the character inner product $$ \langle \chi, \chi_0\rangle = \frac{1}{|G|} \sum_{g\in G} \chi(g) \chi_0(g)^*$$ where ##\chi## and ##\chi_0## are the characters of ##\rho## and ##\rho_0##, respectively. Since all group elements in the same conjugacy class have the same characters, this may be...
