Signalizer Functor Theorem
In mathematics, a signalizer functor gives the intersections of a potential subgroup of a finite group with the centralizers of nontrivial elements of an abelian group. The signalizer functor theorem gives conditions under which a signalizer functor comes from a subgroup. The idea is to try to construct a p'-subgroup of a finite group G, which has a good chance of being normal in G, by taking as generators certain p'-subgroups of the centralizers of nonidentity elements in one or several given noncyclic elementary abelian p-subgroups of G. The technique has origins in the Feit–Thompson theorem, and was subsequently developed by many people including who defined signalizer functors, who proved the Solvable Signalizer Functor Theorem for solvable groups, and who proved it for all groups. This theorem is needed to prove the so-called "dichotomy" stating that a given nonabelian finite simple group either has local characteristic two, or is of component type. It thus plays a major ...

Centralizer
In mathematics, especially group theory, the centralizer (also called commutant) of a subset ''S'' in a group ''G'' is the set of elements \mathrm_G(S) of ''G'' such that each member g \in \mathrm_G(S) commutes with each element of ''S'', or equivalently, such that conjugation by g leaves each element of ''S'' fixed. The normalizer of ''S'' in ''G'' is the set of elements \mathrm_G(S) of ''G'' that satisfy the weaker condition of leaving the set S \subseteq G fixed under conjugation. The centralizer and normalizer of ''S'' are subgroups of ''G''. Many techniques in group theory are based on studying the centralizers and normalizers of suitable subsets ''S''. Suitably formulated, the definitions also apply to semigroups. In ring theory, the centralizer of a subset of a ring is defined with respect to the semigroup (multiplication) operation of the ring. The centralizer of a subset of a ring ''R'' is a subring of ''R''. This article also deals with centralizers and normaliz ...

Feit–Thompson Theorem
In mathematics, the Feit–Thompson theorem, or odd order theorem, states that every finite group of odd order is solvable. It was proved by . History conjectured that every nonabelian finite simple group has even order. suggested using the centralizers of involutions of simple groups as the basis for the classification of finite simple groups, as the Brauer–Fowler theorem shows that there are only a finite number of finite simple groups with given centralizer of an involution. A group of odd order has no involutions, so to carry out Brauer's program it is first necessary to show that non-cyclic finite simple groups never have odd order. This is equivalent to showing that odd order groups are solvable, which is what Feit and Thompson proved. The attack on Burnside's conjecture was started by , who studied CA groups; these are groups such that the Centralizer of every non-trivial element is Abelian. In a pioneering paper he showed that all CA groups of odd order are ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Simple Group
SIMPLE Group Limited is a conglomeration of separately run companies that each has its core area in International Consulting. The core business areas are Legal Services, Fiduciary Activities, Banking Intermediation and Corporate Service. The date of incorporation is listed as 1999 by Companies House of Gibraltar, who class it as a holding company; however it is understood that SIMPLE Group's business and trading activities date to the second part of the 90s, probably as an incorporated body.

Classification Of Finite Simple Groups
In mathematics, the classification of the finite simple groups is a result of group theory stating that every finite simple group is either cyclic, or alternating, or it belongs to a broad infinite class called the groups of Lie type, or else it is one of twenty-six or twenty-seven exceptions, called sporadic. The proof consists of tens of thousands of pages in several hundred journal articles written by about 100 authors, published mostly between 1955 and 2004. Simple groups can be seen as the basic building blocks of all finite groups, reminiscent of the way the prime numbers are the basic building blocks of the natural numbers. The Jordan–Hölder theorem is a more precise way of stating this fact about finite groups. However, a significant difference from integer factorization is that such "building blocks" do not necessarily determine a unique group, since there might be many non-isomorphic groups with the same composition series or, put in another way, the extension prob ...

P-group
In mathematics, specifically group theory, given a prime number ''p'', a ''p''-group is a group in which the order of every element is a power of ''p''. That is, for each element ''g'' of a ''p''-group ''G'', there exists a nonnegative integer ''n'' such that the product of ''pn'' copies of ''g'', and not fewer, is equal to the identity element. The orders of different elements may be different powers of ''p''. Abelian ''p''-groups are also called ''p''-primary or simply primary. A finite group is a ''p''-group if and only if its order (the number of its elements) is a power of ''p''. Given a finite group ''G'', the Sylow theorems guarantee the existence of a subgroup of ''G'' of order ''pn'' for every prime power ''pn'' that divides the order of ''G''. Every finite ''p''-group is nilpotent. The remainder of this article deals with finite ''p''-groups. For an example of an infinite abelian ''p''-group, see Prüfer group, and for an example of an infinite simple ''p''-grou ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Solvable Group
In mathematics, more specifically in the field of group theory, a solvable group or soluble group is a group that can be constructed from abelian groups using extensions. Equivalently, a solvable group is a group whose derived series terminates in the trivial subgroup. Motivation Historically, the word "solvable" arose from Galois theory and the proof of the general unsolvability of quintic equation. Specifically, a polynomial equation is solvable in radicals if and only if the corresponding Galois group is solvable (note this theorem holds only in characteristic 0). This means associated to a polynomial f \in F /math> there is a tower of field extensionsF = F_0 \subseteq F_1 \subseteq F_2 \subseteq \cdots \subseteq F_m=Ksuch that # F_i = F_ alpha_i/math> where \alpha_i^ \in F_, so \alpha_i is a solution to the equation x^ - a where a \in F_ # F_m contains a splitting field for f(x) Example For example, the smallest Galois field extension of \mathbb containing the elemen ...

ZJ Theorem
In mathematics, George Glauberman's ZJ theorem states that if a finite group ''G'' is ''p''-constrained and ''p''-stable and has a normal ''p''-subgroup for some odd prime ''p'', then ''O''''p''′(''G'')''Z''(''J''(''S'')) is a normal subgroup of ''G'', for any Sylow ''p''-subgroup ''S''. Notation and definitions *''J''(''S'') is the Thompson subgroup of a ''p''-group ''S'': the subgroup generated by the abelian subgroups of maximal order. *''Z''(''H'') means the center of a group ''H''. *''O''''p''′ is the maximal normal subgroup of ''G'' of order coprime to ''p'', the ''p''′-core *''O''''p'' is the maximal normal ''p''-subgroup of ''G'', the ''p''-core. *''O''''p''′,''p''(''G'') is the maximal normal ''p''-nilpotent subgroup of ''G'', the ''p''′,''p''-core, part of the upper ''p''-series. *For an odd prime ''p'', a group ''G'' with ''O''''p''(''G'') ≠ 1 is said to be ''p''-stable if whenever ''P'' is a p-subgroup of ''G'' such that ''POp′''(''G'') is nor ...

Schur–Zassenhaus Theorem
The Schur–Zassenhaus theorem is a theorem in group theory which states that if G is a finite group, and N is a normal subgroup whose order is coprime to the order of the quotient group G/N, then G is a semidirect product (or split extension) of N and G/N. An alternative statement of the theorem is that any normal Hall subgroup N of a finite group G has a complement in G. Moreover if either N or G/N is solvable then the Schur–Zassenhaus theorem also states that all complements of N in G are conjugate. The assumption that either N or G/N is solvable can be dropped as it is always satisfied, but all known proofs of this require the use of the much harder Feit–Thompson theorem. The Schur–Zassenhaus theorem at least partially answers the question: "In a composition series, how can we classify groups with a certain set of composition factors?" The other part, which is where the composition factors do not have coprime orders, is tackled in extension theory. History The ...
