**Linear Algebra Exercises on Subgroups**

1. **Subgroup Identification**
   - Let \( K \) be a subgroup of \( \mathbb{R} \). Let \( H = \{ g \in GL(n, \mathbb{R}) : \text{det}(g) \in K \} \). Prove that \( H \) is a subgroup of \( GL(n, \mathbb{R}) \).

2. **Subgroup Verification**
   - Let \( G = GL(2, \mathbb{R}) \). Prove that the following two subsets of \( GL(2, \mathbb{R}) \) are subgroups of \( G \):
     - (a) \( A = \left\{ \begin{pmatrix} a & 0 \\ 0 & d \end{pmatrix} : a > 0 \text{ and } d > 0 \right\} \)
     - (b) \( N = \left\{ \begin{pmatrix} 1 & b \\ 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix} : b \in \mathbb{R} \right\} \)

3. **Trickier Example of a Subgroup**
   - Prove that \( K \) is indeed a subgroup of \( GL(2, \mathbb{R}) \):
     \[
     K = \left\{ \begin{pmatrix} \cos \theta & \sin \theta \\ \sin \theta & -\cos \theta \end{pmatrix} \right\}
     \]
     (You will probably recognize the elements of \( K \) from an earlier homework).

4. **Theorem Application**
   - There is a theorem that says that every element \( g \in GL(2, \mathbb{R}) \) can be written, in a unique way, as \( kan \) for some \( k \in K \), \( a \in A \), and \( n \in N \) (with \( K, A, N \) as in the last two problems). Your job:
     - (a) If \( g = \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 5 \\ 3 & -12 \end{pmatrix} \), find \( k, a, n \) such that

Expert Solution
Step 1

2a Given set is A=a00d:a>0 and d>0.

We have prove that set A is the subgroup of GL2,R.

For the subgroup, we will prove that set A satisfy all the property of group.

1 Closure property:- Let a00dA and b00cA, where, a, b, c, d>0

Then a00db00c=ab00cdA

Hence, closure property satisfy.

2 Associative property:- Let x=a00dA, y=b00cA and z=e00fA, where, a, b, c, d, e, f>0

We have to show that xyz=xyz

LHS=xyz=a00db00ce00f=ab00cde00f=abe00cdf

And

RHS=xyz=a00db00ce00f=a00dbe00cf=abe00cdf

Since, LHS=RHS

Hence, associative property satisfy.
