Rédei's theorem

Rédei's theorem

In Group Theory, Rédei's theorem states that "If a finite abelian group is expressed as the product of subsets each of which has a prime number of elements and contains the identity element, then at least one of the factors is a subgroup." This theorem was proved by L. Rédei in 1965.

Formal statement

In any normed factorization of a finite abelian group by subsets of prime cardinality, at least one of the factors is a subgroup.
