Jan 15, 2010 at 1:01 comment added Harrison Brown Sure! An example: write n in base 5; set f(n) = 0 if the last nonzero digit is 2 or 4, f(n) = 1 otherwise. (This factors through (Z/5)*.) I actually don't really know either way if you can recover information about G; the motivation comes from some discussion over at Tim Gowers' blog on the latest polymath project.
