Chapter 3.1, Problem 6E

Let ( G , ) and ( H , * ) be groups, i be the identity element for H, and h : ( G , o ) ( H , * ) be a homomorphism. The kernel of f is ker ( f ) = { x G : f ( x ) = i } . Thus, ker(f) is all the elements of G that map to the identity in H. Show that ker(f) is a subgroup of G.

Question: Let F be a field. Prove that F contains a unique smallest subfield, called the prime subfield, which is isomorphic to either Q or Zp for some prime p. Instructions: • Begin by identifying the identity element 1 € F. • Use the closure under addition and inverses to build a subring. • • • Show that either the map ZF or Q →F is an embedding. Prove minimality and uniqueness. Discuss the characteristic of a field and link it to the structure of the prime subfield.
