Cyclic Groups Question 1:
The external direct product of additive group of integer Z with itself is
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Cyclic Groups Question 1 Detailed Solution
Explanations:
The external direct product of the additive group of integers Z with itself, denoted Z × Z, is not a cyclic group.
In a cyclic group, every element can be expressed as a power (or multiple, in the case of additive groups) of a single element. However, in Z × Z, no single ordered pair of integers (a, b) can generate all possible ordered pairs through addition, so Z × Z is not cyclic.
However, it is abelian, because the group operation (addition, in this case) is commutative: (a, b) + (c, d) = (a+c, b+d) = (c, d) + (a, b).
Hence, Option 2 is Correct.
Cyclic Groups Question 2:
Let (G) be a cyclic group of n roots of unity under multiplication, then its generator is :
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Cyclic Groups Question 2 Detailed Solution
Concept Used:
A group G is a cyclic group if there exists an element a ∈ G such that G=[a]
i.e. every element of G can be expressed as some integral power of a.
a is called the generator of G.
G={ . . . ,a-3, a-2, a-1, a0, a1 ,a2, a3. . .}

Cyclic Groups Question 3:
Consider the following statements:
S1: If a group (G, *) is of order n, and a ∈ G is such that am = e for some integer m ≤ n, then m must divide n.
S2: If a group (G, *) is of even order, then there must be an element a ∈ G such that a ≠ e and a * a = e
Which of the statements is (are) correctAnswer (Detailed Solution Below)
Cyclic Groups Question 3 Detailed Solution
S1: If a group (G, *) is of order n, and a ∈ G is such that am = e for some integer m ≤ n, then m must divide n.
Given statement is correct. As a ∈ G , is such that am = e for some integer m
S2: If a group (G, *) is of even order, then there must be an element a ∈ G such that a ≠ e and a * a = e
This statement is correct. Consider an example for this : Consider G is of order 2n. There exists a ∈ G such that ap = e and p divides 2n. Let n = pq. So, (an)2 = (apq)2 = ((ap)q)2 = (eq)2 = e . It means an is an element which satisfy the condition and a =! e. Here, a is non trivial subgroup of G.
Cyclic Groups Question 4:
The external direct product of additive group of integers Z with itself is?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Cyclic Groups Question 4 Detailed Solution
Explanation:
The external direct product of additive group of integers Z with itself, commonly denoted as Z × Z, is a mathematical structure where the group operation is defined componentwise.
If we adopt addition as the operation in Z, then the operation in Z × Z will be pair addition, i.e., (a, b) + (c, d) = (a + c, b + d).
A cyclic group is a group that is generated by a single element. In Z × Z, no individual pair of integers can generate all pairs through repeated addition, because each pair only generates a "line" of pairs, so to speak, and cannot cover the entire "plane" of pairs.
So Z × Z is not cyclic. Thus, the answer is 1) not cyclic.
Cyclic Groups Question 5:
Consider the group Z495 under addition modulo 495.
(i) {0, 99, 198, 307, 406} is the unique subgroup of Z495 of order 5.
(ii) {0, 55, 110, 165, 220, 275, 330, 385, 440} is the unique subgroup of Z495 of order 9.
Then,

Cyclic Groups Question 5 Detailed Solution
The group Z495 under addition modulo 495
{0, 99, 198, 307, 406} is the unique subgroup of Z495 of order 5.
It is true.
{0, 55, 110, 165, 220, 275, 330, 385, 440} is the unique subgroup of Z495 of order 9.
It is true.
Cyclic Groups Question 6:
A cyclic permutation of length 2 is called
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Cyclic Groups Question 6 Detailed Solution
Explanation:
A cycle of length two is called a transposition.
Cyclic permutation: A permutation of the form (m1m2 ... mk) is called a cyclic permutation (or cycle) of length k.
If (m1m2 ... mk) denotes the permutation that carries m1 into m2, m2 into m3, ... , mk-1 into mk and mk into m1 and leaves all the remaining elements of the set in question unchanged.
Transposition: A cyclic permutation of length 2.
Disjoint cycles. Two or more cycles which have no element in common are called (mutually) disjoint.

Cyclic Groups Question 8:
What is/are the generators of the group ({1, ω, ω2}, *) where * is multiplication?
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Cyclic Groups Question 8 Detailed Solution
Identity (e) = 1
From 1 we cannot generate ω and ω2
∴ it is not a generator
(ω)1 = ω, (ω)2 = ω2 and (ω)3 = 1
∴ it is a generator
(ω2)1 = ω2, (ω2)2 = ω and (ω2)3 = 1
∴ it is generator

Cyclic Groups Question 10:
If G = ({1, 2... 12}, ×13 )
then 2-1 and 3-1 respectively are
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Cyclic Groups Question 10 Detailed Solution
If G = ({1, 2... 12}, ×13 )
It is a multiplicative modulo 13
∴ G is group
Identity element = e = 1
a × a-1 = e (where e is identity element)
×13 is given operator
(2 × 2-1 )mod13 = 1
∴ 2-1 = 7
(3 × 3-1 )mod13 = 1
∴ 3-1 = 9
