Finitely Presented Group
In mathematics, a presentation is one method of specifying a group. A presentation of a group ''G'' comprises a set ''S'' of generators—so that every element of the group can be written as a product of powers of some of these generators—and a set ''R'' of relations among those generators. We then say ''G'' has presentation :\langle S \mid R\rangle. Informally, ''G'' has the above presentation if it is the "freest group" generated by ''S'' subject only to the relations ''R''. Formally, the group ''G'' is said to have the above presentation if it is isomorphic to the quotient of a free group on ''S'' by the normal subgroup generated by the relations ''R''. As a simple example, the cyclic group of order ''n'' has the presentation :\langle a \mid a^n = 1\rangle, where 1 is the group identity. This may be written equivalently as :\langle a \mid a^n\rangle, thanks to the convention that terms that do not include an equals sign are taken to be equal to the group identity. S ...

Finitely Presented Monoid
In algebra, a presentation of a monoid (or a presentation of a semigroup) is a description of a monoid (or a semigroup) in terms of a set of generators and a set of relations on the free monoid (or the free semigroup ) generated by . The monoid is then presented as the quotient of the free monoid (or the free semigroup) by these relations. This is an analogue of a group presentation in group theory. As a mathematical structure, a monoid presentation is identical to a string rewriting system (also known as a semi-Thue system). Every monoid may be presented by a semi-Thue system (possibly over an infinite alphabet).Book and Otto, Theorem 7.1.7, p. 149 A ''presentation'' should not be confused with a ''representation''. Construction The relations are given as a (finite) binary relation on . To form the quotient monoid, these relations are extended to monoid congruences as follows: First, one takes the symmetric closure of . This is then extended to a symmetric relation by d ...

Finitely Presented Module
In mathematics, a finitely generated module is a module that has a finite generating set. A finitely generated module over a ring ''R'' may also be called a finite ''R''-module, finite over ''R'', or a module of finite type. Related concepts include finitely cogenerated modules, finitely presented modules, finitely related modules and coherent modules all of which are defined below. Over a Noetherian ring the concepts of finitely generated, finitely presented and coherent modules coincide. A finitely generated module over a field is simply a finite-dimensional vector space, and a finitely generated module over the integers is simply a finitely generated abelian group. Definition The left ''R''-module ''M'' is finitely generated if there exist ''a''1, ''a''2, ..., ''a''''n'' in ''M'' such that for any ''x'' in ''M'', there exist ''r''1, ''r''2, ..., ''r''''n'' in ''R'' with ''x'' = ''r''1''a''1 + ''r''2''a''2 + ... + ''r''''n''''a''''n''. The set is referred to as a generating ...

Finitely Presented Algebra
Ring theory is the branch of mathematics in which rings are studied: that is, structures supporting both an addition and a multiplication operation. This is a glossary of some terms of the subject. For the items in commutative algebra (the theory of commutative rings), see glossary of commutative algebra. For ring-theoretic concepts in the language of modules, see also Glossary of module theory. For specific types of algebras, see also: Glossary of field theory and Glossary of Lie groups and Lie algebras. Since, currently, there is no glossary on not-necessarily-associative algebra-structures in general, this glossary includes some concepts that do not need associativity; e.g., a derivation.

Finitely Presented Scheme
This is a glossary of algebraic geometry. See also glossary of commutative algebra, glossary of classical algebraic geometry, and glossary of ring theory. For the number-theoretic applications, see glossary of arithmetic and Diophantine geometry. For simplicity, a reference to the base scheme is often omitted; i.e., a scheme will be a scheme over some fixed base scheme ''S'' and a morphism an ''S''-morphism. !$@ A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P ...
