Abstract Algebra

**2.4. In which of the following cases is \( H \) a subgroup of \( G \)?**

(a) \( G = GL_n(\mathbb{C}) \) and \( H = GL_n(\mathbb{R}) \).

(b) \( G = \mathbb{R}^\times \) and \( H = \{1, -1\} \).

(c) \( G = \mathbb{Z}^+ \) and \( H \) is the set of positive integers.

(d) \( G = \mathbb{R}^\times \) and \( H \) is the set of positive reals.

(e) \( G = GL_2(\mathbb{R}) \) and \( H \) is the set of matrices \(\begin{bmatrix} a & 0 \\ 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}\), with \( a \neq 0 \).
