Suppose that G is a finite abelian group and has exactly one subgroup for each divisor of |G|. Show that G is cyclic.

If G is a group, denote by [x, y] =x-1y-1xy the so called commutator of x and y. Consider the so-called commutator subgroup [G,G] generated by all [x, y]'s, H =< [x; y] | x, y ϵ G >. Show that [G,G] is normal in G and G/[G,G] is abelian.

) Let N be a normal subgroup of the group G. Prove that the quotient group G/N is abelian if and only if N contains the commutator subgroup [G, G].
