The quaternion group has the unusual property of being Hamiltonian: Q 8 is non-abelian, but every subgroup is normal. [4] Every Hamiltonian group contains a copy of Q 8. [5] The quaternion group Q 8 and the dihedral group D 4 are the two smallest examples of a nilpotent non-abelian group.

The character table does not in general determine the group up to isomorphism: for example, the quaternion group Q and the dihedral group of 8 elements, D 4, have the same character table. Brauer asked whether the character table, together with the knowledge of how the powers of elements of its conjugacy classes are distributed, determines a ...
In mathematics, a quaternionic structure or Q-structure is an axiomatic system that abstracts the concept of a quaternion algebra over a field.. A quaternionic structure is a triple (G, Q, q) where G is an elementary abelian group of exponent 2 with a distinguished element −1, Q is a pointed set with distinguished element 1, and q is a symmetric surjection G×G → Q satisfying axioms
The Schur multiplier of the elementary abelian group of order 16 is an elementary abelian group of order 64, showing that the multiplier can be strictly larger than the group itself. The Schur multiplier of the quaternion group is trivial, but the Schur multiplier of dihedral 2-groups has order 2.
In the quaternion group of order 8, each of the cyclic subgroups of order 4 is normal, but none of these are characteristic. However, the subgroup, {1, −1}, is characteristic, since it is the only subgroup of order 2. If n > 2 is even, the dihedral group of order 2n has 3 subgroups of index 2, all of which are normal. One of these is the ...
