- Prove: if |G| = p^2, G must be abelian. (Use the preceding Exercise F.)
- Let G be a group whose order is a power of a prime p, say |G| = p^k.
- Let C denote the center of G.
- Conclude that if G/C is cyclic, then G is abelian.
- Prove: if |G| = p^2, G/C must be cyclic.
- |C| is a multiple of p (1)
- |G| is a multiple of |C|
- |G| = p*p (2)
- |C| = p
- |C| = p^2
- Number of cosets of C in G =
- Index of C in G =
- (G:C) = |G|/|C| = p^2/p = p
- |G/C| = p
- If G is a group with a prime number p of elements, then G is a cyclic group
- |G| = p^2 -> G/C is a cyclic group -> G is abelian
