Well I would like to change the topic to "kurres exercises" or something, but I cant, so here comes a few more that are not related to functional equations.

#7 Let

Find expressed in A

#8 Let H be a subgroup of G. prove that the following statements are equivalent:
a) H is a normal subgroup
b) for all a,b in G,

if and only if

#9 Solve the following equation in primes p,q,r:

Changed! You can edit a topic's title by editing its first post.

Kurre · 2009-05-04 10:30:08

Thanks! But I still cant find a field where to edit the title? i know what u mean, i have seen it before. I thought it had been too long since i created the topic..

mathsyperson · 2009-05-04 11:03:26

Hmm. Maybe the software has changed then. I'm certain it used to be possible that way.
(It's how I changed the title, but I probably follow different rules)

Good point about my answer, I forgot about that detail. I can tweak it though!

You can edit a thread title for something like the first five minutes after you start the thread; after that period, you cant edit the title any more (except for moderators).

I know, its hard for moderators to know all the problems that non-moderators go through.

Thanks for clarifying!

uhm okey that was much nicer than what I did

#12
Let n be an integer with m prime factors (not necessarily distinct). suppose d|n and define

where and are the multiplicities for p in the prime factorization for n and d respectively. Show that:

and determine when equality occurs.

Hi Kurre;

I have been working very hard on your #7. I will continue to work on it, but in case I don't get there after a couple of weeks more. I would very much like to see your method.

Im really glad to hear you are working on it

If you want, I can post my solution.

#13 Let M be a (p-1)x(p-1) matrix where p is an odd prime number and each row has each element from {1,2,3,...,p-2,p-1} exactly once. Prove that p|det(M)

#13 is false for p=2.

true, forgot about that. Fixed!

can be generalized. For each integer , divides the determinant of a matrix in which each positive integer less than and coprime with appears exactly once in each row and in each column.

Yea I realized that when trying to sleep yesterday
edit: you dont need exactly once in the columns also
