Examples of cyclic groups isomorphic to $\mathbb{R}$

124 Views Asked by At

I'm currently reading through "A Book of Abstract Algebra" - C Pinter and have come across cyclic groups $$G = \langle a \rangle = \{ e, a_1, \ldots, a_n \}$$

Are there any cyclic groups isomorphic to $\mathbb{R}$?

Every cyclic group is countable. The group of real numbers under addition is uncountable. Therefore, the group of real numbers is not cyclic.
