Isomorphism Theorems PDF

The document summarizes two isomorphism theorems: 1) The first isomorphism theorem states that for a homomorphism φ: G → H, the group G/Ker(φ) is isomorphic to the image φ(G). This is proved by showing a mapping ψ is well-defined, a homomorphism, one-to-one, and onto. 2) The second isomorphism theorem states that for a subgroup H of G and a normal subgroup N of G, the group H/(N∩H) is isomorphic to the group (NH)/N. This is proved by showing a mapping φ is a homomorphism and onto.

Proof
Let K = Ker (ϕ). Define ψ : G/K → ϕ(G) by
ψ(Kx) = ϕ(x).
To prove this theorem, we need to show 4 cases. That is,
ψ must be well-defined, a homomorphism, 1-1 and onto.
