In mathematics, specifically group theory, a homomorphism from one group to another group may give rise to an induced homomorphism between groups and which are associated canonically with and , provided the original homomorphism satisfies suitable conditions. One of the most important situations, with lots of useful applications, arises when normal subgroups and are given and we search for necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an induced homomorphism between the corresponding quotient groups and which is connected with in a natural way. ==Image, pre-image and kernel== Throughout this article, let be a homomorphism from a source group (domain) to a target group (codomain). First, we recall some basic facts concerning the image and pre-image of normal subgroups and the kernel of the homomorphism , as given in Satz 40, p. 44, of Reiffen, Scheja and Vetter. 〔 Lemma. Suppose that and are subgroups, and are elements. :1. If is a normal subgroup of , then its image is a normal subgroup of the (total) image . :2. If is a normal subgroup of the image , then the pre-image is a normal subgroup of . :3. In particular, the kernel of is a normal subgroup of . :4. If , then there exists an element such that . :5. If , then , i.e., the pre-image of the image satisfies . :6. Conversely, the image of the pre-image is given by . The situation of the Lemma is visualized by Figure 1, where we briefly write and . Remark. Note that, in the first statement of the Lemma, we cannot conclude that is a normal subgroup of the target group , and in the second statement of the Lemma, we need not require that is a normal subgroup of the target group . For the proof click ''show'' on the right hand side. 1. If , then for all , and thus for all , i.e., . 2. If , then , that is, . In particular, we have , i.e., , and consequently . 3. To prove the claim for the kernel, we put in the second statement. 4. If , then , and thus . 5. If , then , and thus , by the fourth statement. This shows , and the opposite inclusion is obvious. Finally, since is normal, we have . 6. This is a consequence of the properties of the set mappings and associated with the homomorphism . 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Induced homomorphism (quotient group)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
