  3. Cosets Theorem of Lagrange Cosets Theorem (10.1) Let H be a subgroup of G. Let the relation ∼ L on G be defined by a − 1 b ∈ H , a ∼ L b ⇔ and the relation ∼ R be defined by ab − 1 ∈ H . a ∼ R b ⇔ Then ∼ L and ∼ R are both equivalence relations on G.

  4. Cosets Theorem of Lagrange Cosets Proof. Here we only prove the ∼ R case. We need to show Reflexive: We need to show that aa − 1 is in H . We have 1 aa − 1 = e . Since H is a subgroup, H contains e = aa − 1 . Summetric: We need to show that ab − 1 ∈ H implies 2 ba − 1 ∈ H . Now ba − 1 = ( ab − 1 ) − 1 . Because H is a subgroup, if ab − 1 is in H , so is its inverse ( ab − 1 ) − 1 = ba − 1 . Transitive: We need to show that if ab − 1 , bc − 1 ∈ H , then so 3 is ac − 1 . We have ac − 1 = ( ab − 1 )( bc − 1 ) . Since H is a subgroup, if ac − 1 and bc − 1 are in H , so is their product ( ab − 1 )( bc − 1 ) = ac − 1 . This completes the proof.

  14. Cosets Theorem of Lagrange Cosets Definition Let H be a subgroup of a group G . The equivalence class { b ∈ G : a ∼ L b } is called the left coset of H containing a . Likewise, the equivalence class { b ∈ G : a ∼ R b } is called the right coset of H containing a . Remark It is straightforward to see that the left coset of H containing a is exactly aH = { ah : h ∈ H } , and the right coset of H containing a is Ha = { ha : h ∈ H } . This is why ∼ L is left and ∼ R is right . Instructor: Yifan Yang Section 10 – Cosets and the Theorem of Lagrange
