IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 3

Every subgroup of an abelian group is :

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 3

Let G be an abelian group and H a sub group of G x be any element G and h any element of H. We have

= eh(∵ G is abelian x-1 h = hx-1)

thus x∈G, x∈G, ⇒ xhx-1 ∈ H

Hence H is normal in G

IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 4

A subgroup H of a group G is normal subgroup if:

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 4

Let H be a normal subgroup of G then 

Again, g ∈ G => g-1 ∈ G so

Hence from equations (1) and (2), 

IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 5

Let H and N be subgroup and normal subgroup of a group G respectively then

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 5

Suppose  e∈  H and for any arbitrary x ∈ N. 

Now HN is a subgroup of G, N is a subgroup of G and N ≤ HN therefore N is a subgroup of HN let hx be an arbitary element of HN st.

again x1 be any arbitary element of N then.

     ..(1)

Since N Δ G therefore 

IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 6

Let N1 and N2 be two normal subgroup of a group G then  if

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 6

Supose that  then we are to prove that N1 = N2 we have  but  therefore  that is N1 is equal to some coset of N2 in G. But two cosets of N2 in G are either disjoint or identical since e ∈ N1 and e ∈ N2 th e re fo re N1 and N2 are not disjoint so we must have N1 = N2.

IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 7

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 7

IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 8

If G is a group, Z its center and if G/Z is cyclic then G

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 8

We have given that G/Z is a cyclic group, so let Zg is a generator of the cyclic group G/Z, where g ∈ G.
W e now show that G is an abelian group i.e.,
Since a ∈ G, so Za ∈ G/Z. But G/Z is a cyclic group which is gen era ted by Zg. Thus there exists an integer m such that

Za = (Zg)m = Zgm [∵ Z is a normal subgroup of G]

Again 

a ∈ Za and Za = Zgm ⇒ a ∈ Z gm.

Now

a ∈ Z g m ⇒ z1 ∈ Z such that a ∈ z1 gm

Similarly, for b ∈ G, b = zgn, where z2 ∈  z and n is any integer.

Now

Again

IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 9

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 9

Since G is non abelian 

Suppose if possible f(xy) = f(x) f(y) then 

which is a contradiction hence f is not an automorphism.

IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 10

If the subgroup H of G contain the derived subgroup G' of G then H is normal in G and G/H is abelian then

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 10

Suppose now that H is any normal subgroup of G. Then, by definition, G/H is abelian if and only if for all x, y in   his is the same as to say that fo r all x, y in  i.e., that H contains every commutator [x, y], (x, y ∈ G). Since these commutators generate G', the last statement is equivalent to saying that  Thus G/H is Abelian if and only if H contains G'.

IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 11

or

'implies fxy = fyx Hence option (c) is correct.

IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 12

For   let  then

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 12

Let us approaches (0,0) along the line y = mx which passes through origin. Put y = mx, we get

Which depends on m. Hence does not exists, therefore f(x,y) is discontinuous at (0,0)

Now 

Hence, f(x,y) is discontinuous at (0,0). But both the partial derivative fx and fy exists at origin.

IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 13

Which one of the following is a group ?

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 13

Where  

closure property a* b = a ∈ N

Associativity ( a * b ) * c = a * c = a

a * ( b * c ) = a * b = a

a * ( b * c ) = a * b = a

identity a * e = a 

a = a

⇒ there does not exist identity

⇒ (N, *) is not a group.

(B) (Z, *) where a * b = a - b for all a, b ∈Z (Z, *) is a group if all four properties of the group are satisfied. These properties are

 (1) Closure property : If a, b ∈ Z, then a * b = a - b ∈ Z ⇒ closure property is satisfied 

(2) Associativity ⇒ If a, b, c ∈ Z, then ( a * b ) * c = (a -b )*c = a - b - c ...(i) and a*(b*c) = a* (b- c) = a - ( b - c ) = a - b + c ...(ii) 

Hence by Eqs. (i) and (ii)  

Hence the property of associativity is not satisfied. => (Z, *) is not a group.

(C) (Q, *) where for all a, b ∈ Q. T his is not a group since inverse of element 0 ∈ Q does not exist.

for identity ⇒ let identity is e, then a * e = a, let a ≠ o .

⇒ if a ≠ 0 then e = 2, Thus if a = 0 then e cannot be 2

⇒ inverse of a = 0 does not exist. Hence it is not a group

(D) (R, *) w here a * b = a + b + 1, a ,b∈ R This is a g roup with identity given as a *

e = a + e + 1 = a

Since - 1 ∈ Q, so e ∈ Q, So (R, *) is a group with identity - 1 .

IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 15

Let  f : R2 -> R be defined by

Then,

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 15

We have,

But f(0,0) = 0

Hence,

implies f(x,y) is continuous at (0,0)

Now,

where A = 0, B = 0 which does not depends on h and k and

Hence , f(x,y) is continuous as well as differentiable at (0,0).

The number of distinct cycles of length of 2 in

Now, an element of S5 is of order 6 if and only if it is product of two disjoint cycles of one of length 2 and another of length 3. Further, once a cycle of length 3 the disjoint transposition is uniquely determined. Hence, the number of element of 6 in S5 is 20.

IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 18

Each of the six players participating in a chess competition will play one match with each other player. Tell us how many matches will be played in the entire competition-

Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 18

Given:

Each of the six players participating in a chess competition will play one match with each other player.

Concept Used:

nCr = n!/r!(n - r)!

Calculations:

Symbolically, this can be represented as C(n, r) where:

n represents the total number of players.
r represents the number of players in a single match.

In this case, n is 6 (the total number of players) and r is 2 (players in a single match).

So, in the notation of combinations, the number of matches would be represented as C(6,2).

C(6,2) = 6! / [2!(6-2)!] = 30/2 = 15

∴ There will be 15 matches played in the entire competition.

*Multiple options can be correct

Let G be a finite group of order 200. Then find total number of subgroup of G of order 25.


Detailed Solution for IIT JAM Mathematics Practice Test- 8 - Question 23

"Every group contains a unique subgroup of each order."

By lagrange's theorem we know that order of the subgroup is divisors of the order of the group.i . e. if a subgroup H of G exists then 0(H) must divides 0(G). Here divisors of 200 are 1 , 2 , 4 , 5 , 8 ,10,20 ,25 , 40, 50, 100 , 200 i.e. G has 12 subgroups of order 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 25, 40, 50, 100, 200 and it is clear that a sub group with order 25 is unique.
