  2. Lattice of subgroups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_of_subgroups

    Hasse diagram of the lattice of subgroups of the dihedral group Dih 4, with the subgroups represented by their cycle graphs. In mathematics, the lattice of subgroups of a group is the lattice whose elements are the subgroups of , with the partial ordering being set inclusion.

  3. Z-group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-group

    Usage: (Robinson 1996), (Kurosh 1960)The definition of central series used for Z-group is somewhat technical. A series of G is a collection S of subgroups of G, linearly ordered by inclusion, such that for every g in G, the subgroups A g = ∩ { N in S : g in N} and B g = ∪ { N in S : g not in N} are both in S.

    D n is a subgroup of the symmetric group S n for n ≥ 3. Since 2n > n! for n = 1 or n = 2, for these values, D n is too large to be a subgroup. The inner automorphism group of D 2 is trivial, whereas for other even values of n, this is D n / Z 2. The cycle graphs of dihedral groups consist of an n-element cycle and n 2-element cycles. The dark ...

  5. Cyclic group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_group

    A cycle graph illustrates the various cycles of a group and is particularly useful in visualizing the structure of small finite groups. A cycle graph for a cyclic group is simply a circular graph, where the group order is equal to the number of nodes. A single generator defines the group as a directional path on the graph, and the inverse ...

    One of the non-abelian groups is the semidirect product of a normal cyclic subgroup of order p 2 by a cyclic group of order p. The other is the quaternion group for p = 2 and a group of exponent p for p > 2. Order p 4: The classification is complicated, and gets much harder as the exponent of p increases.

  7. Free group - Wikipedia

    Hence, the fundamental group of the Cayley graph Γ(G) is isomorphic to the kernel of φ, the normal subgroup of relations among the generators of G. The extreme case is when G = {e}, the trivial group, considered with as many generators as F, all of them trivial; the Cayley graph Γ(G) is a bouquet of circles, and its fundamental group is F ...

    If we then let N be the subgroup of F generated by all conjugates x −1 Rx of R, then it follows by definition that every element of N is a finite product x 1 −1 r 1 x 1... x m −1 r m x m of members of such conjugates. It follows that each element of N, when considered as a product in D 8, will also evaluate to 1; and thus that N is a ...

  9. Subgroup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subgroup

    A proper subgroup of a group G is a subgroup H which is a proper subset of G (that is, H ≠ G). This is often represented notationally by H < G, read as "H is a proper subgroup of G". Some authors also exclude the trivial group from being proper (that is, H ≠ {e} ). [2] [3] If H is a subgroup of G, then G is sometimes called an overgroup of H.
