چکیده

Proof. We consider the two cases: either g ∈ H or g ∈ G−H. Case 1 Suppose g ∈ H. Then for any gh ∈ gH, gh ∈ H. This implies gH ⊆ H. Now, let h be any element of H. Then h = (gg−1)h = g(g−1h), and g−1h ∈ H because g−1 and h are both in the subgroup H. It follows that h ∈ gH and H ⊆ gH. Therefore, gH = H. It can be similarly shown that Hg = H. This means gH = Hg and H £ G by Lemma 2.5.1 from class. Case 2 Suppose g ∈ G−H. Then for any gh ∈ gH, gh ∈ G−H because it cannot be the case that gh ∈ H. (If gh were in H, then ghh−1 = g would have to be in H by Lemma 2.4.3, which is clearly false.) Hence, we know gH ⊆ G −H. Now, since |G/H| = 2 we know by the Lagrange Theorem that |G| = 2|H|, and by Lemma 2.4.6, |aH| = |H| for any a ∈ G. Thus, in this case, |G| = |gH|+ |H|. This allows us to say that |gH| = |G−H|. Since gH ⊆ G−H and their order is equal, it follows that gH = G −H. It can be similarly shown that Hg = G − H. This means gH = Hg and H £ G. Having demonstrated both possible cases, we can conclude in general that H £ G whenever H ≤ G and |G/H| = 2. ¤

Diagnosing Student's Algebra Errors on the Web

Electronic Homework was an intelligent tutoring system that runs on stand-alone computers [1] initially and is now migrated to the Web to provide on-line homework tutorial. The system contains a database of different sets of algebra problems from which learners can choose what sort of problems to practice. When a learner is solving a problem, the system diagnoses concurrently every step he/she ...

Comment on “Benefits of completing homework for students with different aptitudes in an introductory electricity and magnetism course”

In a recent study, Kontur, de La Harpe, and Terry [1] carried out an important study examining the differential benefits of doing more homework on different levels of students. Their surprising results, which suggest that doing homework does not benefit lower aptitude physics students, prompted us to examine the correlation between homework and exam grades in our own courses. In contrast to the...

0 Macaulay 2 and the Geometry of Schemes

This tutorial illustrates how to use Dan Grayson and Mike Stillman’s computer algebra system, Macaulay2, to study schemes. The examples are taken from the homework for an algebraic geometry class given at the University of California, Berkeley in the fall of 1999. This graduate course was taught by the second author with assistance from the first author. Our choice of problems follows the mater...

Intersection Theory Class 4 Ravi

Homework due on Monday: 1. Find the order of y/x at origin in y = x using the length definition. 2. In no more than half a page, explain why Bezout’s Theorem for plane curves is true (i.e. explicate Fulton’s Example 1.4.1). Feel free to assume that F is irreducible. You can also get a “bye” for two weeks of homework by (at some point in the future) explaining to me the “rational equivalence pus...

Is computer-generated interactive mathematics homework more effective than traditional instructor-graded homework?

Introduction The purpose of this study was to determine if online homework using MyMathLab (MML) would lead to an increase in academic performance compared with traditional paper-based, instructor-graded homework. Seventy-two students enrolled in a required college algebra course participated in this study. Results from this study indicate that there is not enough evidence to claim that the stu...

Real Analysis - Homework solutions

1.1 (a) Rings (resp. σ-rings) are closed under finite (resp. countable) intersections. (b) If R is a ring (resp. σ-ring) then R is an algebra (resp. σ-algebra) iff X ∈ R. (c) If R is a (nonempty) σ-ring then {E ⊂ X : E ∈ R or E ∈ R} is a σ-algebra. (d) If R is a σ-ring, then {E ⊂ X : E ∩ F ∈ R for all F ∈ R} is a σ-algebra. Solution: (a) If R is a ring and E1, E2 ∈ R, then since R is closed und...
