If I'm doubtful about whether a new tag is appropriate, I apply the following tests: Can I imagine at least two other users independently deciding that this tag is worth using or searching for? (This is a very weak test but any tag that it rejects should definitely not be used.) Will any quest...
The group of rational numbers $(\mathbb Q,+)$ has an interesting property , that the intersection of any two non-trivial subgroups of this group is non-trivial . Let us call this property the " non-trvial intersection property " or NIP in short . Now it is easy to see that this NIP property is i...
I already know that converse of Lagrange theorem does not hold on $A_n$. If converse of Lagrange theorem does hold on $A_n$ , Some group of $A_n$ has all 3cycles and it is whole group. Could you help me?
