  2. Torsion-free abelian group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion-free_abelian_group

    A non-finitely generated countable example is given by the additive group of the polynomial ring [] (the free abelian group of countable rank). More complicated examples are the additive group of the rational field Q {\displaystyle \mathbb {Q} } , or its subgroups such as Z [ p − 1 ] {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} [p^{-1}]} (rational numbers ...

  3. Rank of an abelian group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rank_of_an_abelian_group

    The group Q of rational numbers has rank 1. Torsion-free abelian groups of rank 1 are realized as subgroups of Q and there is a satisfactory classification of them up to isomorphism. By contrast, there is no satisfactory classification of torsion-free abelian groups of rank 2. [2] Rank is additive over short exact sequences: if

  4. Rank of a group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rank_of_a_group

    The rank of a symmetry group is closely related to the complexity of the object (a molecule, a crystal structure) being under the action of the group. If G is a crystallographic point group, then rank(G) is up to 3. [9] If G is a wallpaper group, then rank(G) = 2 to 4. The only wallpaper-group type of rank 4 is p2mm. [10]

  5. Free group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_group

    The free group in two elements is SQ universal; the above follows as any SQ universal group has subgroups of all countable ranks. Any group that acts on a tree, freely and preserving the orientation, is a free group of countable rank (given by 1 plus the Euler characteristic of the quotient graph). The Cayley graph of a free group of finite ...

  7. Free abelian group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_abelian_group

    The automorphism groups of two infinite-rank free abelian groups have the same first-order theories as each other, if and only if their ranks are equivalent cardinals from the point of view of second-order logic. This result depends on the structure of involutions of free abelian groups, the automorphisms that are their own inverse. Given a ...

  9. Classification of finite simple groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classification_of_finite...

    In mathematics, the classification of finite simple groups (popularly called the enormous theorem [1] [2]) is a result of group theory stating that every finite simple group is either cyclic, or alternating, or belongs to a broad infinite class called the groups of Lie type, or else it is one of twenty-six exceptions, called sporadic (the Tits group is sometimes regarded as a sporadic group ...
