Group theory/Center/Properties/Exercise

From Wikiversity

Let G be a group with center Z(G). Prove the following statements:

a) G is Abelian if and only if G/Z(G) is cyclic.


b) The index of Z(G) in G is not a prime number.


c) If the order of G is pq for two prime number p and q, then G is Abelian, or Z(G) is trivial.
