1. Let H be a subgroup of a group G and S be the set of all left cosets of H in G. Then prove that
there is a homomorphism f of G into A(S) such that ker(f ) is the largest subgroup of G which is
contained in H, where A(S) denotes the set of all permutations of S.
4. Two ideals A and B of a ring R are called co-maximal if A + B = R. Prove that if A and B are
co-maximal ideals of the commutative ring R with unity, then AB = A ∩ B.
