Isomorphism between two groups












1












$begingroup$



Prove that $langle Bbb Z/nBbb Z, +rangle$ and $langle U_{n}, {}cdot{}rangle$ are isomorphic binary structure where $U_n$ is roots of unity and $Bbb Z/nBbb Z$ is integers modulo $n$.




I know that for isomorphic binary structure, we define a function between groups and we should check homomorphism property and bijection. But I can not define a function. Please help me, if you have any good idea.

    That's better. Now, if you're stuck on a general problem (like here, "show that for all $n$, something something"), it usually helps to check a few small examples and see if you can get some insight. What about $Bbb Z/Bbb Z_2$ and $U_2$? What about $Bbb Z/3Bbb Z$ and $U_3$? Can you find isomorhisms there? What about $4$ and $5$? Does that generalize in any way?

Outline:



$$U_n={1, zeta,zeta^2,cdots, zeta^{n-1}}=langle zeta rangle$$ where $zeta=e^frac{2 pi i}{n}$



For a sake of simplicity, identify $Bbb Z/ n Bbb Z$ with $Bbb Z_n$. Here $Bbb Z_n =langle 1 rangle$. Then the map $$ f:Bbb Z_n ni 1^i mapsto zeta^i in U_n$$ is an isomorphism (!). Here $1^n$ means $underbrace{1+1+cdots+1}_{n ;times}$

Section du cône ou projection du cercle. En géométrie, une ellipse est une courbe plane fermée obtenue par l’intersection d’un cône de révolution avec un plan, à condition que celui-ci coupe l'axe de rotation du cône ou du cylindre : c'est une conique d'excentricité strictement comprise entre 0 et 1. On peut également la définir comme le lieu des points dont la somme des distances à deux points fixes, dits foyers, est constante (sa construction par la méthode du jardinier est très simple). Dans la vie courante, l’ellipse est la forme qu'on perçoit en regardant un cercle en perspective, ou la figure formée par l’ombre d'un disque sur une surface plane.
