Double-coset counts need not divide group order
ID: double-coset-counts-need-not-divide-group-order
For the order-eight dihedral group generated by of order four and of order two with , let . There are exactly three double cosets: , , and , of sizes two, two, and four. Their number does not divide eight. This differs from the number of ordinary cosets, which divides group order by Lagrange's theorem.
