Finitely generated abelian groups
[9/11%]Show that in a finite abelian group , for any there exists at least one subgroup of order (the converse of Lagrange's theorem).
Show that, with a suitable ordering, the invariants of any subgroup are divisors of the invariants of the abelian group.
If , where and are finite abelian groups, then .
If are finite abelian groups and , then .
Every finite abelian group of order , not divisible by the square of an integer , is cyclic.
List all the nonisomorphic abelian groups of order 72.
Are the groups and isomorphic?
State and prove the theorem on finitely generated abelian groups in the language of integer matrices (matrices with coefficients in ). Use appropriately elementary transformations on such matrices.
Prove that the index of a subgroup of the free abelian group of rank is finite if and only if .
