Corollary to Cayley's Theorem
Every finite group G of order n is isomorphic to a subgroup of the symmetric group S_n.
The right coset Ka denotes:
Ka = {ka| k in K}, where a is a fixed element of the group.
Lagrange's Theorem
If G is a finite group and K is a subgroup of G, then |G| = |K| |[G:K]|.
Def: The index of a subgroup K in a group G
Is the number of distinct right cosets of K in G.
Let p be a prime integer. Then every group of order p is...
Cyclic, and therefore isomorphic to Z_p.
If N is a normal subgroup of a group G, then the following are equivalent:
1) Na = aN for every a in G. 2) (a^-1)Na is a subset of N for every a in G.

3) (a^-1)Na is equal to N for every a in G.
G/N denotes...
...The set of all right cosets of N in G.
G/N is a group under the operation (Na)(Nb) = N(ab) if...
...N is a normal subgroup of G.
If G is finite and N is a normal subgroup of G, then the order of G/N is ...
...|G|/|N|.
If G is abelian and N is a normal subgroup of G, then G/N is...
...Abelian!
Let N be a normal subgroup of G. Then G/N is abelian if and only if...
...ab(a^-1)(b^-1) is in N for every a, b in G.
If G is a group such that the quotient group G/Z(G) is cyclic, then...
...G is abelian.
Let f: G->H be a homomorphism of groups with kernel K. Then...
...K is a normal subgroup of G.
Let f: G->H be a homomorphism of groups with kernel K. Then K = <e_G> if and only if...
...f is injective.
First Isomorphism Theorem for Groups:
Let f: G->H be a surjective homomorphism of groups with kernel K. Then the quotient group G/K is isomorphic to H.
