- Let G = RX be the group of nonzero real numbers under multiplication. Let r is a positive integer. Show that the map f(x) = xris a homomoprhism. Determine the kernel, and determine r so that the map is an isomorphism.arrow_forwardLet G1 and G2 be groups. Prove that G1 × G2 is isomorphic to G2 × G1.arrow_forward5 Let G be the set of all functions ƒ: R → R of the form f(x) = ax+b where a and b are real numbers with a = 0. Prove that G is a group with the operation of composition of functions.arrow_forward
- Let G = Z16X Z4. (i) Construct a surjective homomorphism : G → Z8. (ii) What is ker()? (iii) Show that there is no surjective homomorphism y: G → Z8 × Z8.arrow_forwardFind all possible automorphisms of Q(V2).arrow_forwardDescribe the group of the polynomial (x4 – 5x2 + 6) ∊ ℚ[x] over ℚ.arrow_forward
- Let A and B be groups. Prove that A x B and B x A are isomorphic. Define a map from one set to the other.arrow_forwardConsider maps π1 : G1 × G2 → G1 given by π1(g1, g2) = g1 and π2 : G1 × G2 → G2 given byπ2(g1, g2) = g2. Show that π1 and π2 are homomorphisms (You can just show one of them is a homomorphism and say the other one follows similarly.)arrow_forwardWhich of the following is not an isomorphism? f: (R*, .) → (R, +) where f(x) = Inx None of these this optionarrow_forward
