Question:

Consider the group \( (\mathbb{Q}, +) \) and its subgroup \( (\mathbb{Z}, +) \).
For the quotient group \( \mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z} \), which one of the following is FALSE?

Updated On: Oct 1, 2024
  • \( \mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z} \) contains a subgroup isomorphic to \( (\mathbb{Z}, +) \).
  • There is exactly one group homomorphism from \( \mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z} \) to \( (\mathbb{Q}, +) \).
  • For all \( n \in \mathbb{N} \), there exists \( g \in \mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z} \) such that the order of \( g \) is \( n \).
  • \( \mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z} \) is not a cyclic group.
