Question Number 192746 by Mastermind last updated on 26/May/23

Let G be the group ({1, ı, −1, −ı}, ∙)  and let H ≤ (+_− 1, ∙), show that  θ:G→H is an Isomorphism.    Hello!

$$\mathrm{Let}\:\mathrm{G}\:\mathrm{be}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{group}\:\left(\left\{\mathrm{1},\:\imath,\:−\mathrm{1},\:−\imath\right\},\:\centerdot\right) \\ $$$$\mathrm{and}\:\mathrm{let}\:\mathrm{H}\:\leqslant\:\left(\underset{−} {+}\mathrm{1},\:\centerdot\right),\:\mathrm{show}\:\mathrm{that} \\ $$$$\theta:\mathrm{G}\rightarrow\mathrm{H}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{an}\:\mathrm{Isomorphism}. \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\mathrm{Hello}! \\ $$

If I understood the question correctly, we   need to show that G is iomorphic to a subgroup  of the group ({+1,−1},∙).  But G≅C_4  and ({+1,−1},∙)≅C_2 .  ⇒∀H≤C_2 , ∣H∣∈{1,2}  while ∣G∣=4  if H≅G, then ∣H∣=∣G∣=4∉{1,2}    what you′re asking is not true and therefore  impossible to prove.
