N3: Prove that the intersection of an arbitrary nonempty collection of subgroups of G is again a subgroup of G. (do not assume that the collection is countable)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Whoa there integer! You in undergrad class? Cause this forum is for high school math...lol Some Calc 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer to this question is in the definition of a subset. Which is what I think you meant instead of subgroup.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no it means subgroup.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you have to show? everything will work out right . the identity is in it because the identity is in each subgroup, so it is in their intersection

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh i see it is the countable part that is not obvious. otherwise you could just show it by doing it for two subgroups and then use induction. damn

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh no it makes no difference.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are you using to index your subgroups?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is impossible for me to type for some reason but it is one line basically. for if a and b belong to the intersection then for each say \[\lambda \in \Lambda\] you know \[a,b\in H_{\lambda}\] for all \[\lambda\]so \[ab^{-1}\in H_{\lambda}\] and so \[ab^{-1}\in H\]
