List of all nonabelian groups up to order 31 Order Id. [a] G o i Group Non-trivial proper subgroups [1] Cycle graph Properties 6 7 G 6 1: D 6 = S 3 = Z 3 ⋊ Z 2: Z 3, Z 2 (3) : Dihedral group, Dih 3, the smallest non-abelian group, symmetric group, smallest Frobenius 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]
In particular, any intermediate group Z n < A < Q n has rank n. Abelian groups of rank 0 are exactly the periodic abelian groups. 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 ...
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 ...
F 4 (q) has a non-trivial graph automorphism when q is a power of 2. These groups are the automorphism groups of 8-dimensional Cayley algebras over finite fields, which gives them 7-dimensional representations. They also act on the corresponding Lie algebras of dimension 14. G 2 (q) has a non-trivial graph automorphism when q is a power of 3
The commutator subgroup of a free group of rank k > 1 has infinite rank; for example for F(a,b), it is freely generated by the commutators [a m, b n] for non-zero m and n. 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 ...
p-groups of the same order are not necessarily isomorphic; for example, the cyclic group C 4 and the Klein four-group V 4 are both 2-groups of order 4, but they are not isomorphic. Nor need a p-group be abelian; the dihedral group Dih 4 of order 8 is a non-abelian 2-group. However, every group of order p 2 is abelian.
Essentially, these are given by a triple of groups (,,) with only the first group being non-abelian, and some additional homotopy theoretic data from the Postnikov tower. If we take this 3-group as a homotopy 3-type X {\displaystyle X} , the existence of universal covers gives us a homotopy type X ^ → X {\displaystyle {\hat {X}}\to X} which ...
