What will be be doing this week?

  1. Internal Direct products.
    • Prove that $HK\approx H\oplus K$ under appropriate conditions. They don't need much, other than maybe a hint that they do have to show that $hk=kh$, so elements commute. This should appear as something that is obvious to show when they try to prove it's a homomorphism.
  2. Fundamental Theorem of Finitely Generated Abelian Groups.
    • Statement of Theorem, and applications.
    • Look at several U groups and decide which one it is isomorphic to.
    • Start the proof.
  3. Sylow Theorems
    • Practice with induction on order of the group.
  4. Geometric Group Theory.
    • Growth Function in a Cayley graph.
    • Infinte Cayley graphs for $Z$ and $Z\oplus Z$, compute growth functions.
  5. Introduction to Rings.
