Discrete Structures & Theory of Logic Unit 4 – Algebraic Structures (Group Theory): important questions for AKTU

Unit 4 (Algebraic Structures (Group Theory)) questions that AKTU repeats most often. This unit carries about 26 marks per paper. Start with the repeated questions, then the most asked topics.

Most repeated Unit 4 questions

  • How many generators are there of the cyclic group G of order 10. (7 marks, 2026, Groups & Subgroups) – also asked in 2025
  • Calculate the number of generators of the cyclic group of order 8. (7 marks, 2025, Groups & Subgroups) – also asked in 2026
  • Let G= {1, -1, i, - i} with the binary operation multiplication be an algebraic structure, where i = √-1 then determine whether G is an Abelian group. Also if G is cyclic Group, then determine the generator of G. (7 marks, 2024, Groups & Subgroups) – also asked in 2023
