statement proposition

Abelian groups are solvable

Statement

Let GG be an abelian group. Then GG is solvable.

Remarks

The series {e}⊴G\{e\} \trianglelefteq G has one factor, GG itself, and this factor is abelian. Equivalently, the commutator subgroup G(1)G^{(1)} is already {e}\{e\}. The converse is false: S3S_3 is solvable, by the series {e}⊴A3⊴S3\{e\} \trianglelefteq A_3 \trianglelefteq S_3, but it is not abelian.

Explanations

L1 human

An abelian group is already one abelian layer. So it is solvable with a series of length one. Solvable groups generalise abelian groups.

What this node needs for W1
  • an inventory row: the row of the inventory that the node accounts for (0 of 1)

The writing levels say how complete the text of a node is. They do not measure its truth.

What this needs

To read this node, read these 15 nodes in this order. The foundations come first, and the list ends with this node.

Each node uses the nodes above it. The colour of the bar on a box shows the evidence level, and the box also gives it as text. The list below has the same nodes.
