Regular P-group
In mathematical finite group theory, the concept of regular ''p''-group captures some of the more important properties of abelian ''p''-groups, but is general enough to include most "small" ''p''-groups. Regular ''p''-groups were introduced by . Definition A finite ''p''-group ''G'' is said to be regular if any of the following equivalent , conditions are satisfied: * For every ''a'', ''b'' in ''G'', there is a ''c'' in the derived subgroup ' of the subgroup ''H'' of ''G'' generated by ''a'' and ''b'', such that ''a''''p'' · ''b''''p'' = (''ab'')''p'' · ''c''''p''. * For every ''a'', ''b'' in ''G'', there are elements ''c''''i'' in the derived subgroup of the subgroup generated by ''a'' and ''b'', such that ''a''''p'' · ''b''''p'' = (''ab'')''p'' · ''c''1''p'' ⋯ ''c''k''p''. * For every ''a'', ''b'' in ''G'' and every positive integer ''n'', there are elements ''c''''i'' in the derived subgroup of the subgroup generated by ''a'' and ''b'' such that ''a''''q'' · ''b''''q' ...

Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...

Quotient Group
A quotient group or factor group is a mathematical group obtained by aggregating similar elements of a larger group using an equivalence relation that preserves some of the group structure (the rest of the structure is "factored out"). For example, the cyclic group of addition modulo ''n'' can be obtained from the group of integers under addition by identifying elements that differ by a multiple of n and defining a group structure that operates on each such class (known as a congruence class) as a single entity. It is part of the mathematical field known as group theory. For a congruence relation on a group, the equivalence class of the identity element is always a normal subgroup of the original group, and the other equivalence classes are precisely the cosets of that normal subgroup. The resulting quotient is written , where G is the original group and N is the normal subgroup. This is read as '', where \text is short for modulo. (The notation should be interpreted w ...

Power Closed
In mathematics a p-group G is called power closed if for every section H of G the product of p^k powers is again a p^kth power. Regular p-groups are an example of power closed groups. On the other hand, powerful p-group In mathematics, in the field of group theory, especially in the study of ''p''-groups and pro-''p''-groups, the concept of powerful ''p''-groups plays an important role. They were introduced in , where a number of applications are given, includi ...s, for which the product of p^k powers is again a p^kth power are not power closed, as this property does not hold for all sections of powerful p-groups.

Powerful P-group
In mathematics, in the field of group theory, especially in the study of ''p''-groups and pro-''p''-groups, the concept of powerful ''p''-groups plays an important role. They were introduced in , where a number of applications are given, including results on Schur multipliers. Powerful ''p''-groups are used in the study of automorphisms of ''p''-groups , the solution of the restricted Burnside problem , the classification of finite ''p''-groups via the coclass conjectures , and provided an excellent method of understanding analytic pro-''p''-groups . Formal definition A finite ''p''-group G is called powerful if the commutator subgroup ,G/math> is contained in the subgroup G^p = \langle g^p , g\in G\rangle for odd p, or if ,G/math> is contained in the subgroup G^4 for p=2. Properties of powerful ''p''-groups Powerful ''p''-groups have many properties similar to abelian groups, and thus provide a good basis for studying ''p''-groups.

Philip Hall
Philip Hall FRS (11 April 1904 – 30 December 1982), was an English mathematician. His major work was on group theory, notably on finite groups and solvable groups. Biography He was educated first at Christ's Hospital, where he won the Thompson Gold Medal for mathematics, and later at King's College, Cambridge. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1951 and awarded its Sylvester Medal in 1961. He was President of the London Mathematical Society from 1955–1957, and was awarded its Berwick Prize in 1958 and De Morgan Medal in 1965.

Index (group Theory)
In mathematics, specifically group theory, the index of a subgroup ''H'' in a group ''G'' is the number of left cosets of ''H'' in ''G'', or equivalently, the number of right cosets of ''H'' in ''G''. The index is denoted , G:H, or :H/math> or (G:H). Because ''G'' is the disjoint union of the left cosets and because each left coset has the same size as ''H'', the index is related to the orders of the two groups by the formula :, G, = , G:H, , H, (interpret the quantities as cardinal numbers if some of them are infinite). Thus the index , G:H, measures the "relative sizes" of ''G'' and ''H''. For example, let G = \Z be the group of integers under addition, and let H = 2\Z be the subgroup consisting of the even integers. Then 2\Z has two cosets in \Z, namely the set of even integers and the set of odd integers, so the index , \Z:2\Z, is 2. More generally, , \Z:n\Z, = n for any positive integer ''n''. When ''G'' is finite, the formula may be written as , G:H, = , G, / ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Omega And Agemo Subgroup
In mathematics, or more specifically group theory, the omega and agemo subgroups described the so-called "power structure" of a finite ''p''-group. They were introduced in where they were used to describe a class of finite ''p''-groups whose structure was sufficiently similar to that of finite abelian ''p''-groups, the so-called, regular p-groups. The relationship between power and commutator structure forms a central theme in the modern study of ''p''-groups, as exemplified in the work on uniformly powerful p-groups. The word "agemo" is just "omega" spelled backwards, and the agemo subgroup is denoted by an upside-down omega (℧). Definition The omega subgroups are the series of subgroups of a finite p-group, ''G'', indexed by the natural numbers: :\Omega_i(G) = \langle \ \rangle. The agemo subgroups are the series of subgroups: : \mho^i(G) = \langle \ \rangle. When ''i'' = 1 and ''p'' is odd, then ''i'' is normally omitted from the definition. When ''p'' is even, ...

Cyclic Group
In abstract algebra, a cyclic group or monogenous group is a Group (mathematics), group, denoted C_n (also frequently \Z_n or Z_n, not to be confused with the commutative ring of P-adic number, -adic numbers), that is Generating set of a group, generated by a single element. That is, it is a set (mathematics), set of Inverse element, invertible elements with a single associative binary operation, and it contains an element g such that every other element of the group may be obtained by repeatedly applying the group operation to g or its inverse. Each element can be written as an integer Exponentiation, power of g in multiplicative notation, or as an integer multiple of g in additive notation. This element g is called a ''Generating set of a group, generator'' of the group. Every infinite cyclic group is isomorphic to the additive group \Z, the integers. Every finite cyclic group of Order (group theory), order n is isomorphic to the additive group of Quotient group, Z/''n''Z, the in ...

Direct Product Of Groups
In mathematics, specifically in group theory, the direct product is an operation that takes two groups and and constructs a new group, usually denoted . This operation is the group-theoretic analogue of the Cartesian product of sets and is one of several important notions of direct product in mathematics. In the context of abelian groups, the direct product is sometimes referred to as the direct sum, and is denoted G \oplus H. Direct sums play an important role in the classification of abelian groups: according to the fundamental theorem of finite abelian groups, every finite abelian group can be expressed as the direct sum of cyclic groups. Definition Given groups (with operation ) and (with operation ), the direct product is defined as follows: The resulting algebraic object satisfies the axioms for a group. Specifically: ;Associativity: The binary operation on is associative. ;Identity: The direct product has an identity element, namely , where is the identi ...

Subgroup
In group theory, a branch of mathematics, a subset of a group G is a subgroup of G if the members of that subset form a group with respect to the group operation in G. Formally, given a group (mathematics), group under a binary operation ∗, a subset of is called a subgroup of if also forms a group under the operation ∗. More precisely, is a subgroup of if the Restriction (mathematics), restriction of ∗ to is a group operation on . This is often denoted , read as " is a subgroup of ". The trivial subgroup of any group is the subgroup consisting of just the identity element. A proper subgroup of a group is a subgroup which is a subset, proper subset of (that is, ). This is often represented notationally by , read as " is a proper subgroup of ". Some authors also exclude the trivial group from being proper (that is, ). If is a subgroup of , then is sometimes called an overgroup of . The same definitions apply more generally when is an arbitrary se ...
