The Fundamental theorem of finitely generated abelian groups says that every finitely generated abelian group is isomorphic to
Zr⊕Z/d1​Z⊕⋯⊕Z/ds​Z,1<d1​∣d2​∣⋯∣ds​.​
(1)
The rank of an abelian group r and the invariant factors dj​ are uniquely determined, with the finite summand allowed to be absent. Equivalently, one can decompose the torsion subgroup into cyclic groups of prime-power orders. The infinite cyclic part and torsion part must both be included in the statement.
