The simple N-groups were classified by Thompson (1968, 1970, 1971, 1973, 1974, 1974b) in a series of 6 papers totaling about 400 pages.The simple N-groups consist of the special linear groups PSL 2 (q), PSL 3 (3), the Suzuki groups Sz(2 2n+1), the unitary group U 3 (3), the alternating group A 7, the Mathieu group M 11, and the Tits group.
In mathematics, an n-group, or n-dimensional higher group, is a special kind of n-category that generalises the concept of group to higher-dimensional algebra.Here, may be any natural number or infinity.

As in the symmetric group, any two elements of A n that are conjugate by an element of A n must have the same cycle shape.The converse is not necessarily true, however. If the cycle shape consists only of cycles of odd length with no two cycles the same length, where cycles of length one are included in the cycle type, then there are exactly two conjugacy classes for this cycle shape (Scott ...
A Cayley graph of the symmetric group S 4. The symmetric group S n on a finite set of n symbols is the group whose elements are all the permutations of the n symbols, and whose group operation is the composition of such permutations, which are treated as bijective functions from the set of symbols to itself.

The simplest form of a group-contribution method is the determination of a component property by summing up the group contributions : [] = +.This simple form assumes that the property (normal boiling point in the example) is strictly linearly dependent on the number of groups, and additionally no interaction between groups and molecules are assumed.
The free group G = π 1 (X) has n = 2 generators corresponding to loops a,b from the base point P in X.The subgroup H of even-length words, with index e = [G : H] = 2, corresponds to the covering graph Y with two vertices corresponding to the cosets H and H' = aH = bH = a −1 H = b − 1 H, and two lifted edges for each of the original loop-edges a,b.
In the context of group theory, the socle of a group G, denoted soc(G), is the subgroup generated by the minimal normal subgroups of G.It can happen that a group has no minimal non-trivial normal subgroup (that is, every non-trivial normal subgroup properly contains another such subgroup) and in that case the socle is defined to be the subgroup generated by the identity.
