Thompson Groups
In mathematics, the Thompson groups (also called Thompson's groups, vagabond groups or chameleon groups) are three groups, commonly denoted F \subseteq T \subseteq V, that were introduced by Richard Thompson in some unpublished handwritten notes in 1965 as a possible counterexample to the von Neumann conjecture. Of the three, ''F'' is the most widely studied, and is sometimes referred to as the Thompson group or Thompson's group. The Thompson groups, and ''F'' in particular, have a collection of unusual properties that have made them counterexamples to many general conjectures in group theory. All three Thompson groups are infinite but finitely presented. The groups ''T'' and ''V'' are (rare) examples of infinite but finitely-presented simple groups. The group ''F'' is not simple but its derived subgroup 'F'',''F''is and the quotient of ''F'' by its derived subgroup is the free abelian group of rank 2. ''F'' is totally ordered, has exponential growth, and does not contain a subg ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
