230 CHAPTER 13 THE SYLOW THEOREMS(e) Let {T 1 , . . . , T u } be an orbit such that p̸ | u and H = {g ∈ G : gT 1 =T 1 }. Prove that H is a subgroup of G and show that |G| = u|H|.(f) Show that p k divides |H| and p k ≤ |H|.(g) Show that |H| = |O T | ≤ p k ; conclude that therefore p k = |H|.26. Let G be a group. Prove that G ′ = 〈aba −1 b −1 : a, b ∈ G〉 is a normal subgroupof G and G/G ′ is abelian. Find an example to show that {aba −1 b −1 : a, b ∈G} is not necessarily a group.A ProjectTable 13.1.

This problem is very difficult even if we try to classify the groupsof order less than or equal to 60. However, we can break the problem down intoseveral intermediate problems.1. Find all simple groups G ( |G| ≤ 60). Do not use the Odd Order Theoremunless you are prepared to prove it.2. Find the number of distinct groups G, where the order of G is n for n =1, . . . , 60.3. Find the actual groups (up to isomorphism) for each n.This is a challenging project that requires a working knowledge of the group theoryyou have learned up to this point. Even if you do not complete it, it will teach youa great deal about finite groups. You can use Table 13.1 as a guide.
