Group Theory
In abstract algebra, group theory studies the algebraic structures known as group (mathematics), groups. The concept of a group is central to abstract algebra: other well-known algebraic structures, such as ring (mathematics), rings, field (mathematics), fields, and vector spaces, can all be seen as groups endowed with additional operation (mathematics), operations and axioms. Groups recur throughout mathematics, and the methods of group theory have influenced many parts of algebra. Linear algebraic groups and Lie groups are two branches of group theory that have experienced advances and have become subject areas in their own right. Various physical systems, such as crystals and the hydrogen atom, and Standard Model, three of the four known fundamental forces in the universe, may be modelled by symmetry groups. Thus group theory and the closely related representation theory have many important applications in physics, chemistry, and materials science. Group theory is also ce ...

Mathieu Group M22
In the area of modern algebra known as group theory, the Mathieu group ''M22'' is a sporadic simple group of Order (group theory), order : 27325711 = 443520 : ≈ 4.

The Schur multiplier of M22 is cyclic of order 12, and the outer automorphism group has order 2. There are several incorrect statements about the 2-part of the Schur multiplier in the mathematical literature. incorrectly claimed that the Schur multiplier of M22 has order 3, and in a correction incorrectly claimed that it has order 6. This caused an error in the title of the paper announcing the discovery of the Janko group J4. showed that the Schur multiplier is in fact cyclic of order 12. calculated the 2-part of all the cohomology of M22.

In the area of modern algebra known as group theory, the Mathieu group ''M''23 is a sporadic simple group of order : 2732571123 = 10200960 : ≈ 1 × 107. History and properties ''M''23 is one of the 26 sporadic groups and was introduced by . It is a 4-fold transitive permutation group on 23 objects. The Schur multiplier and the outer automorphism group are both trivial. calculated the integral cohomology, and showed in particular that M23 has the unusual property that the first 4 integral homology groups all vanish. The inverse Galois problem seems to be unsolved for M23. In other words, no polynomial in Z 'x''seems to be known to have M23 as its Galois group. The inverse Galois problem is solved for all other sporadic simple groups. Construction using finite fields Let be the finite field with 211 elements. Its group of units has order − 1 = 2047 = 23 · 89, so it has a cyclic subgroup of order 23. The Mathieu group M23 can be identified with ...

Higman–Sims Group
In the area of modern algebra known as group theory, the Higman–Sims group HS is a sporadic simple group of order : 29⋅32⋅53⋅7⋅11 = 44352000 : ≈ 4. The Schur multiplier has order 2, the outer automorphism group has order 2, and the group 2.HS.2 appears as an involution centralizer in the Harada–Norton group. History HS is one of the 26 sporadic groups and was found by . They were attending a presentation by Marshall Hall on the Hall–Janko group J2. It happens that J2 acts as a permutation group on the Hall–Janko graph of 100 points, the stabilizer of one point being a subgroup with two other orbits of lengths 36 and 63. Inspired by this they decided to check for other rank 3 permutation groups on 100 points. They soon focused on a possible one containing the Mathieu group M22, which has permutation representations on 22 and 77 points. (The latter representation arises because the M22 Steiner system has 77 blocks.) By putting toge ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Fischer Group
In the area of modern algebra known as group theory, the Fischer groups are the three sporadic simple groups Fi22, Fi23 and Fi24 introduced by . 3-transposition groups The Fischer groups are named after Bernd Fischer who discovered them while investigating 3-transposition groups. These are groups ''G'' with the following properties: * ''G'' is generated by a conjugacy class of elements of order 2, called 'Fischer transpositions' or 3-transpositions. * The product of any two distinct transpositions has order 2 or 3. The typical example of a 3-transposition group is a symmetric group, where the Fischer transpositions are genuinely transpositions. The symmetric group Sn can be generated by transpositions: (12), (23), ..., . Fischer was able to classify 3-transposition groups that satisfy certain extra technical conditions. The groups he found fell mostly into several infinite classes (besides symmetric groups: certain classes of symplectic, unitary, and orthogonal groups ...
