Exercise 4, § 2
General Topology, VIII
Bourbaki marks this one as harder than the rest.
Let be the smallest Pythagorean subfield of and let . Let be the multiplicative group of elements of of absolute value 1 (a subgroup of ). Show that is not isomorphic to the additive group of numbers of mod 1. (Observe that in the latter group there exist elements of any prime order ; on the other hand, if is a prime such that is not a power of 2, show that contains no th root of unity other than 1, by noting that the degree over of every element of is a power of 2.)
