Question
Determine the cycle index of the dihedral group $D_{2 p}$, where $p$ is a prime number.
Step 1
These symmetries include $p$ rotations and $p$ reflections. Now, let's consider the possible cycle structures of the elements in $D_{2p}$. Show more…

Let p be a prime number. Find the order of the group GL2(Fp) of invertible matrices with entries in Fp = Z/pZ.
Use Fermat's little theorem to show that if $p$ is prime and $p\left\{a, \text { then } a^{p-2} \text { is an inverse of } a \text { modulo } p \text { . }\right.$
