Abelian Group: Let {G=e, a, b} where e is identity. The operation 'o' is defined by the following composition table. Then(G, o) is called Abelian if it follows the following property-
- Closure Property
- Associativity
- Existence of Identity
- Existence of Inverse
- Commutativity
Cyclic Group- A group a is said to be cyclic if it contains an element 'a' such that every element of G can be represented as some integral power of 'a'. The element 'a' is then called a generator of G, and G is denoted by <a> (or [a]).
Theorem:
(i) All cyclic groups are Abelian, but an Abelian group is not necessarily cyclic.
(ii) The order of a cyclic group is the same as the order of its generator.
Thus it is clear that A and B both are true.
