In particular on the last night we looked at proofs of Cauchy&#8217;s theorem, the Class Equation, and Sylow&#8217;s First Theorem.  In this unit we looked at new material from chapters 9, 13, 14, 17, and 19, as well as using the First Isomorphism theorem for which you should look at Theorem 12.14.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>11\/16 &#8211; We looked at a small version of the <em><strong>Fundamental Theorem of Finitely Generated Abelian Groups<\/strong><\/em> so that the full version in the text would be easier to understand.  We then looked at ways we can apply this theorem to be able to list all possible abelian groups of a given order: e.g. if \\(G\\) is abelian and has order \\(p^2q\\) where \\(p\\) and \\(q\\) are prime, then we can say that either \\(G\\cong \\mathbb{Z}_{12}\\) or \\(G\\cong \\mathbb{Z}_2\\times\\mathbb{Z}_6\\), which are not isomorphic since the first has an element of order 4 and the second does not.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>11\/9 &#8211; Looking at Fraleigh&#8217;s treatment of the <em><strong>Fundamental Theorem of Finitely Generated Abelian Groups<\/strong><\/em>, it makes more sense to build toward that proof before looking at Cauchy&#8217;s Theorem or Sylow&#8217;s Theorems.  So tonight we started building toward that and will cover the main theorem next week.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>11\/2 &#8211; We discussed ways in which maps can induce a structure on the domain from the codomain, Normal Subgroups, Homomorphisms, and The First Isomorphism Theorem.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>10\/26 &#8211; Exam on Basic Group Properties<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>10\/19 &#8211; In a whirlwind lecture through these slides <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.wcsu.edu\/roccac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2023\/04\/Cosets_and_Lagrange.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.wcsu.edu\/roccac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2023\/04\/Groups_and_Homomorphisms.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Groups and Homomorphisms<\/a> and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.wcsu.edu\/roccac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2023\/04\/Cosets_and_Lagrange.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Cosets and Lagrange<\/a>, we looked at homomorphisms, permutations, Cayley&#8217;s theorem, cosets, and Lagrange&#8217;s Theorem.  This unit we have covered material from sections 1-6, 8, 9, and 10.  We didn&#8217;t get to 11 and 12, 12 will be pushed to the next unit and we&#8217;ll drop 11.  For the exam next week look at the study guide below.  For section 10 the only questions on the exam will be computation questions which focus on finding left and right cosets as we discussed in class tonight and finding indexes of subgroups.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>10\/12 &#8211; We spent most of the night looking at material from these slides: <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.wcsu.edu\/roccac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2023\/03\/Groups_and_Subgroups_Slides.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Groups and Subgroups<\/a>. We then spent a little time looking at these <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.wcsu.edu\/roccac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2023\/04\/Groups_and_Homomorphisms.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Groups and Homomorphisms<\/a>, we will continue with these next week.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>10\/5 &#8211; We looked at some specific examples of groups, the dihedral group \\(D_n\\) and the symmetric group \\(S_n\\).  I also mentioned that all abelian groups look like combinations of \\(\\mathbb{Z}\\) or \\(\\mathbb{Z}_n\\), what I should have said is all finitely generated abelian groups look that way; \\(\\mathbb{Q}\\) and \\(\\mathbb{R}\\) are abelian but do not look that way.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>9\/28: Exam 1<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>9\/21: Rings, Ideals, and Quotients<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>9\/14 &#8211; Tonight, after the quiz, we reviewed some linear algebra.  In particular we discussed Linear Transformations\\[T:V\\rightarrow W\\ with\\ T(a\\vec{v}_1+b\\vec{v}_2)=aT(\\vec{v}_1)+bT(\\vec{v}_2),\\] Null Spaces\\[N=\\{\\vec{v}\\in V | T(\\vec{v})=\\vec{0}_W,\\}\\subseteq V\\] and Column Spaces \\[T(V)=\\{T(\\vec{v})|\\vec{v}\\in T\\}\\subseteq W.\\]  We also pointed out that the dimension of the null space plus the dimension of the column space is always equal to the number of columns of the matrix of the transformation and, finally, we can define an equivalence relation on the domain \\(T\\) using the null space which respects the arithmetic in \\(T\\).   We looked at all of this so that when we went back to rings we could recognize that we are studying analogous structures that behave in the same way.  Ring homomorphisms \\[\\phi:R\\rightarrow S\\ with\\ \\phi(a+b)=\\phi(a)+\\phi(b)\\ and\\ \\phi(ab)=\\phi(a)\\phi(b),\\] Kernels\\[K=\\{r\\in R | \\phi(r)=0_S,\\}\\subseteq R\\] and Images \\[\\phi(R)=\\{\\phi(r)|r\\in R\\}\\subseteq S.\\]   We ended by pointing out that the kernel is a special type of subring called an ideal.  We will pick up the discussion there next week.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>9\/7 &#8211; Tonight we had a quiz on equivalence relations and discussed relations a little more in terms of the quiz questions and the packet from last week.  Then we looked at sections 1,2,4,5,7, and 8 in the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.wcsu.edu\/roccac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2023\/08\/Algebraic_Structure_Intro_Overview.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Algebraic Structures Overview<\/a> packet.  You should review this and play around with sections 3 and 6 ahead of the quiz next week.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>8\/31 &#8211; Today we went over the syllabus and then worked through section 2 and part of section 3 of the  <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.wcsu.edu\/roccac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2023\/08\/Exploring_Equivalence_Relations.pdf\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/sites.wcsu.edu\/roccac\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2023\/08\/Exploring_Equivalence_Relations.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Exploring Equivalence Relations<\/a> packet.
