In the theory of Coxeter groups, the symmetric group is the Coxeter group of type A n and occurs as the Weyl group of the general linear group. In combinatorics , the symmetric groups, their elements ( permutations ), and their representations provide a rich source of problems involving Young tableaux , plactic monoids , and the Bruhat order .
These groups are characterized by i) an n-fold proper rotation axis C n; ii) n 2-fold proper rotation axes C 2 normal to C n; iii) a mirror plane σ h normal to C n and containing the C 2 s. The D 1h group is the same as the C 2v group in the pyramidal groups section. The D 8h table reflects the 2007 discovery of errors in older references. [4]
Cayley table as general (and special) linear group GL(2, 2) In mathematics , D 3 (sometimes alternatively denoted by D 6 ) is the dihedral group of degree 3 and order 6. It equals the symmetric group S 3 .
This article summarizes the classes of discrete symmetry groups of the Euclidean plane. The symmetry groups are named here by three naming schemes: International notation, orbifold notation, and Coxeter notation. There are three kinds of symmetry groups of the plane: 2 families of rosette groups – 2D point groups; 7 frieze groups – 2D line ...
The irreducible complex characters of a finite group form a character table which encodes much useful information about the group G in a concise form. Each row is labelled by an irreducible character and the entries in the row are the values of that character on any representative of the respective conjugacy class of G (because characters are class functions).
The homology groups of the 3-sphere are as follows: H 0 (S 3, Z) and H 3 (S 3, Z) are both infinite cyclic, while H i (S 3, Z) = {} for all other indices i. Any topological space with these homology groups is known as a homology 3-sphere .
The following table lists several notations for point groups: Hermann–Mauguin notation (used in crystallography), Schönflies notation (used to describe molecular symmetry), orbifold notation, and Coxeter notation. The latter three are not only conveniently related to its properties, but also to the order of the group.
Tables of homotopy groups of spheres are most conveniently organized by showing π n+k (S n). The following table shows many of the groups π n+k (S n). The stable homotopy groups are highlighted in blue, the unstable ones in red. Each homotopy group is the product of the cyclic groups of the orders given in the table, using the following ...
