Injective Group Homomorphism that does not have Inverse Homomorphism
Problem 443
Let $A=B=\Z$ be the additive group of integers.
Define a map $\phi: A\to B$ by sending $n$ to $2n$ for any integer $n\in A$.
(a) Prove that $\phi$ is a group homomorphism.
(b) Prove that $\phi$ is injective.
(c) Prove that there does not exist a group homomorphism $\psi:B \to A$ such that $\psi \circ \phi=\id_A$.
