Q: If I kill a generator $g$ of a group $G$ such that $G/\langle\langle g\rangle\rangle$ is trivial, is $G$ then cyclic?

ShaunMotivation: In playing around with some rather complicated groups in GAP during my PhD - which is on hiatus due to ill health - I found that, with some of them, if I set some element $g$ of such a group $G$ equal to the identity by quotienting out by the normal subgroup $\langle\langle g\rangle\...

Q: Isomorphic sets?

UltradarkI want to define a homotopic flow on a countable set $S\subset\Bbb N$. I'm thinking of the set $S\subset\Bbb N$ as being continuously mapped s.t. after a countable amount of time, the sets completely overlap and have exactly the same elements. Q: Given an arbitrary set $S,$ how can I define ...
