On finite primary rings and their groups of units
... PROOF OF (*). We can assume i k since we already know that Ni is cyclic for i > k. We show that every element of order p in Ni is in Ni+1; this will establish that Ni has a unique subgroup of order p - since by assumption Ni+1 is cyclic. Indeed, let x E Nz and assume that px 0. Then (1+x)p 1+xp ...

Adequate set of connectives
... Show that some standard connective cannot be expressed by S. Example. The set S = {∧} is not adequate. Proof. To see this, note that a formula depending on only one variable and which uses only the connective ∧ has the property that its truth value for a value assignment that makes p = 0 is always 0 ...
