Let G be an Abelian group of order n and let k be a positive integer relatively prime to n. Show that the mapping from G → G given by g → g^k is an automorphism of G.

For group G, Aut(G) denotes the automorphism group of G, whose elements are all automorphisms of G and with composition as the operation. Prove that Aut(G) is, in fact, a group. Let ̴ : G → Aut(G) be defined by g Ω φg, where φg : G → G is the map that conjugates by g, φg(x) = gxg⁻¹. Prove that it is a group homomorphism.
