Abstract
We know that any finite abelian group appears as a subgroup of infinitely many multiplicative groups (the abelian groups of size that are the multiplicative groups of units in the rings ). It seems to be less well appeciated that appears as a subgroup of almost all multiplicative groups . We exhibit an asymptotic formula for the counting function of those integers whose multiplicative group fails to contain a copy of , for all finite abelian groups (other than the trivial one-element group).
