  2. Permutation group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permutation_group

    The degree of a group of permutations of a finite set is the number of elements in the set. The order of a group (of any type) is the number of elements (cardinality) in the group. By Lagrange's theorem, the order of any finite permutation group of degree n must divide n! since n-factorial is the order of the symmetric group S n.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinations_and_permutations

    Combinations and permutations in the mathematical sense are described in several articles. Described together, in-depth: Twelvefold way; Explained separately in a more accessible way: Combination; Permutation; For meanings outside of mathematics, please see both words’ disambiguation pages: Combination (disambiguation) Permutation ...

  4. Permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permutation

    Permutations without repetition on the left, with repetition to their right. If M is a finite multiset, then a multiset permutation is an ordered arrangement of elements of M in which each element appears a number of times equal exactly to its multiplicity in M. An anagram of a word having some repeated letters is an example of a multiset ...

    If is a permutation group of degree , then the permutation representation of is the linear representation of ρ : G → GL n ⁡ ( K ) {\displaystyle \rho \colon G\to \operatorname {GL} _{n}(K)} which maps g ∈ G {\displaystyle g\in G} to the corresponding permutation matrix (here K {\displaystyle K} is an arbitrary field ).

  7. Primitive permutation group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_permutation_group

    The simplest example is the Klein four-group acting on the vertices of a square, which preserves the partition into diagonals. On the other hand, if a permutation group preserves only trivial partitions, it is transitive, except in the case of the trivial group acting on a 2-element set.

  8. Permutation code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permutation_code

    A main problem in permutation codes is to determine the value of (,), where (,) is defined to be the maximum number of codewords in a permutation code of length and minimum distance . There has been little progress made for 4 ≤ d ≤ n − 1 {\displaystyle 4\leq d\leq n-1} , except for small lengths.
