SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on the concept of isomorphism in Abstract Algebra, specifically relating to groups defined by multiples of integers. The function f: G->H, where G represents multiples of 2 and H represents multiples of 3, is analyzed. The function is defined as f(2n) = 3n, which satisfies the criteria of being one-to-one, onto, and preserving the operation. This establishes that the two groups are isomorphic under the given function.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Abstract Algebra concepts
  • Familiarity with group theory
  • Knowledge of functions and mappings
  • Basic comprehension of mathematical notation
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the properties of isomorphic groups in Abstract Algebra
  • Explore examples of group homomorphisms
  • Learn about the significance of one-to-one and onto functions
  • Investigate other types of algebraic structures, such as rings and fields
USEFUL FOR

Students of Abstract Algebra, mathematicians, and anyone interested in understanding group theory and isomorphism.

Are you taking an "Abstract Algebra". If so you should know what "isomorphic" means- that there is a function from one group to the other, f: G->H, that
1) it is "one-to-one"- if f(x)= f(y) the x= y.
2) it is "onto"- for every y in H there exist x in G such that f(x)= y.
3) it "preserves the operation"- f(x+ y)= f(x)+f(y).

G is defined as multiples of 2 and H is defined as multiples of 3. What about f(2n)= 3n?
