====== Image of a Group Homomorphism ====== ====Definition==== Let $f:G\to H$ be a [[definition:group homomorphism]]. The $\textdef{image}$ of $f$ is the set of elements of $H$ that are mapped to by $f$, namely $$\im f = \{ f(g)\mid g\in G\}.$$ ---- ==== Remarks ==== * I would like to use Cryptography to help the students see that the image of a group homomorphism must always be a subgroup of $H$. ---- ==== $\LaTeX$ version ==== %%%%% % DEPENDENCIES % RequiredMacros: \DeclareMathOperator{\syl}{Syl} %%%%% \begin{definition} Type the definition using LaTeX syntax. \end{definition} ---- ==== External links ==== * [[wp>Group_homomorphism#Image_and_kernel]] {{tag>definition ben needsreview rben rjosh}}
