Abstract

The problem of this thesis is to show that there can be only five groups of order eight. Its basis is Kronecker's Theorem, and it demonstrates that, regardless of the number of generators used in composing the groups, the result will always be limited to four groups of order eight. The fifth and last group is a cyclic group formed on eight letters.
