- Permutations and Disjoint Cycles - Let b be the permutation (1 2 3)(4 5 6 7)(8 9 10 11 12 13) what is b^99 as a product of disjoint cycles. -I know b^99=b^3 but I'm a little confused on the disjoint cycles part.
- Prove that disjoint cycles commute - I need to prove that disjoint cycles commute I think this is a pretty easy question, but I just got stuck in the middle of the proof.
