Endomorphism rings of valued vector spaces
In this article, the equivalent expressions of the direct sum decomposition of groups are mainly discussed. In the first section, we formalize the fact that the internal direct sum decomposition can be defined as normal subgroups and some of their properties. In the second section, we formalize an equivalent form of internal direct sum of commutative groups. In the last section, we formalize that the external direct sum leads an internal direct sum. We referred to [19], [18] [8] and [14] in the...
In this short note a correct proof of Theorem 3.3 from [Tărnăuceanu M., Solitary quotients of finite groups, Cent. Eur. J. Math., 2012, 10(2), 740–747] is given.
It is a known result that if a finite abelian group of odd order is a direct product of lacunary cyclic subsets, then at least one of the factors must be a subgroup. The paper gives an elementary proof that does not rely on characters.
