Cyclic groups

A group G is called cyclic if there exists an element g : G such that every element of G is of the form g ^ n for some n : ℕ. This file only deals with the predicate on a group to be cyclic. For the concrete cyclic group of order n, see Data.ZMod.Basic.

Main definitions

• IsCyclic is a predicate on a group stating that the group is cyclic.

Main statements

• isCyclic_of_prime_card proves that a finite group of prime order is cyclic.
• isSimpleGroup_of_prime_card, IsSimpleGroup.isCyclic, and IsSimpleGroup.prime_card classify finite simple abelian groups.
• IsCyclic.exponent_eq_card: For a finite cyclic group G, the exponent is equal to the group's cardinality.
• IsCyclic.exponent_eq_zero_of_infinite: Infinite cyclic groups have exponent zero.
• IsCyclic.iff_exponent_eq_card: A finite commutative group is cyclic iff its exponent is equal to its cardinality.
