The first isomorphism theorem is a fundamental result in abstract algebra that describes the relationship between a homomorphism, its kernel, and its image. The theorem appears uniformly across algebraic structures such as groups, rings, and modules, and serves as a prototype for many structural results in algebra. Specifically, given a homeomorphism, the quotient of its domain by its kernel is isomorphic to its image.

Group theory

Statement

Let LaTeX and LaTeX be groups and LaTeX a group homomorphism. Then,

  • The kernel of LaTeX, LaTeX is a normal subgroup of LaTeX.
  • The image of LaTeX, LaTeX is a subgroup of LaTeX.
  • LaTeX.
