  2. Order (group theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_(group_theory)

    The consequences of the theorem include: the order of a group G is a power of a prime p if and only if ord(a) is some power of p for every a in G. [2] If a has infinite order, then all non-zero powers of a have infinite order as well. If a has finite order, we have the following formula for the order of the powers of a: ord(a k) = ord(a) / gcd ...

  3. List of small groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_small_groups

    Each group is named by Small Groups library as G o i, where o is the order of the group, and i is the index used to label the group within that order. Common group names: Z n: the cyclic group of order n (the notation C n is also used; it is isomorphic to the additive group of Z/nZ) Dih n: the dihedral group of order 2n (often the notation D n ...

  4. Lexicographic order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexicographic_order

    Then, sorting a subset of is equivalent to convert it into an increasing sequence. The lexicographic order on the resulting sequences induces thus an order on the subsets, which is also called the lexicographical order. In this context, one generally prefer to sort first the subsets by cardinality, such as in the shortlex order. Therefore, in ...

  5. Partially ordered set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partially_ordered_set

    If an order-embedding between two posets S and T exists, one says that S can be embedded into T. If an order-embedding : is bijective, it is called an order isomorphism, and the partial orders (S, ≤) and (T, ≼) are said to be isomorphic. Isomorphic orders have structurally similar Hasse diagrams (see Fig. 7a).

  6. Merge algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merge_algorithm

    Merging two sorted lists into one can be done in linear time and linear or constant space (depending on the data access model). The following pseudocode demonstrates an algorithm that merges input lists (either linked lists or arrays) A and B into a new list C.

  7. Group (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_(mathematics)

    The manipulations of the Rubik's Cube form the Rubik's Cube group.. In mathematics, a group is a set with an operation that associates every pair of elements of the set to an element of the set (as does every binary operation) and satisfies the following constraints: the operation is associative, it has an identity element, and every element of the set has an inverse element.

  8. Sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence

    An infinite sequence of real numbers (in blue). This sequence is neither increasing, decreasing, convergent, nor Cauchy. It is, however, bounded. In mathematics, a sequence is an enumerated collection of objects in which repetitions are allowed and order matters. Like a set, it contains members (also called elements, or terms).

  9. Zero-based numbering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-based_numbering

    In mathematics, many sequences of numbers or of polynomials are indexed by nonnegative integers, for example, the Bernoulli numbers and the Bell numbers. In both mechanics and statistics , the zeroth moment is defined, representing total mass in the case of physical density , or total probability, i.e. one, for a probability distribution .
