Adjoining elements to group

242 Views Asked by At

I finally got some interesting class of examples in which deleting countable element or finite element from a group will remain with group structure.(structure with associated with four properties say, closure,associative,existance of identity and inverses with Binary operations *) But,the question raises about the other side of this above notion. i.e. after adjoining countable or finite element to a group then the new structure of group will remain group. any suggestions regarding this is highly appreciated.

I'm not really sure what you mean, but obviously there are many many examples. First the first part. Consider any group $G$ that has a strict subgroup $H$, then deleting $G\setminus H$ from $G$ leaves a group. There are many examples in which $G\setminus H$ is countably infinite or finite. Now conversely, suppose that $G$ is a group and deleting $U$ from $G$ leaves a group. Then $G\setminus U$ is a subgroup of $G$. Thus the first part of your question is simply looking for subgroups. (after deleting only finite or countably infinite elements).

For the second part. Suppose that $G$ and $H$ are groups. Then $G\oplus H$ is another group strictly containing $G$. If $H$ is finite or countably infinite, then we adjoined only finitely many or countably infinitely many elements to $G$ such that the result is again a group.

So unless I don't understand what you are asking, I'd say that this is a pretty meaningless question.
