  2. Cyclic group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_group

    A cyclic group is a group which is equal to one of its cyclic subgroups: G = g for some element g, called a generator of G. For a finite cyclic group G of order n we have G = {e, g, g 2, ... , g n−1}, where e is the identity element and g i = g j whenever i ≡ j (mod n); in particular g n = g 0 = e, and g −1 = g n−1.

  3. Chronobiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronobiology

    Overview, including some physiological parameters, of the human circadian rhythm ("biological clock").. Chronobiology is a field of biology that examines timing processes, including periodic (cyclic) phenomena in living organisms, such as their adaptation to solar- and lunar-related rhythms. [1]

  4. Subgroups of cyclic groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subgroups_of_cyclic_groups

    The lattice of subgroups of the infinite cyclic group can be described in the same way, as the dual of the divisibility lattice of all positive integers. If the infinite cyclic group is represented as the additive group on the integers, then the subgroup generated by d is a subgroup of the subgroup generated by e if and only if e is a divisor ...

  5. Finitely generated group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finitely_generated_group

    A group that is generated by a single element is called cyclic. Every infinite cyclic group is isomorphic to the additive group of the integers Z. A locally cyclic group is a group in which every finitely generated subgroup is cyclic. The free group on a finite set is finitely generated by the elements of that set .

  6. Free-by-cyclic group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-by-cyclic_group

    In group theory, especially, in geometric group theory, the class of free-by-cyclic groups have been deeply studied as important examples. A group G {\displaystyle G} is said to be free-by-cyclic if it has a free normal subgroup F {\displaystyle F} such that the quotient group G / F {\displaystyle G/F} is cyclic .

  7. Group development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_development

    Also, members of older groups tended to perceive their groups to have more of the characteristics of Stage-3 and Stage-4 groups and to be more productive. Based on these results, Wheelan's position supports the traditional linear models of group development and casts doubt on the cyclic models and Gersick's punctuated equilibrium model.

  8. Phosphodiesterase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphodiesterase

    The cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases comprise a group of enzymes that degrade the phosphodiester bond in the second messenger molecules cAMP and cGMP. They regulate the localization, duration, and amplitude of cyclic nucleotide signaling within subcellular domains.

  9. Cyclin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclin

    There are two main groups of cyclins: G 1 /S cyclins – essential for the control of the cell cycle at the G 1 /S transition, Cyclin A / CDK2 – active in S phase. Cyclin D / CDK4, Cyclin D / CDK6, and Cyclin E / CDK2 – regulates transition from G 1 to S phase. G 2 /M cyclins – essential for the control of the cell cycle at the G2/M ...
