Isomorphism

Result - Let $G$ be a group with subgroups $H$ and $K$ such that $HK$ is also a subgroup. Then we have that $HK/H\cong K/H\cap K$.



Let's analyze the sets $HK=\{hk|h\in H\ \text{and}\ k\in K\}=\bigcup_{k\in K}kH$.
Where as $HK/H=\{(kH)H| k\in K\}=\{kH|k\in K\}$.


Its pretty well known that $HK/H$ is a group.
Let's take an homomorphism $f:K\to HK/H$, such that for any $k\in K$ \[f(k)=kH\] Let's try to find its kernel.


Suppose $kH=H\iff k\in H\iff k\in H\cap K$. Overtly the kernel is $H\cup K$.
This forces an isomorphism form $K/H\cap K$ to $HK/H$.
$\blacksquare$.



Corollary - Let $G$ be a group with subgroup $H$ and normal subgroup $N$. Then $NH/H\cong N/N\cap H$.

This blog reflects my thoughts on the mathematics that I grapple with. Hopefully these rumblings could be organized as to be palatable to a mathematical audience.
