  2. Unit (ring theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_(ring_theory)

    That is, an element u of a ring R is a unit if there exists v in R such that = =, where 1 is the multiplicative identity; the element v is unique for this property and is called the multiplicative inverse of u. [1] [2] The set of units of R forms a group R × under multiplication, called the group of units or unit group of R.

  3. Unitary group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unitary_group

    The unitary group is a subgroup of the general linear group GL(n, C), and it has as a subgroup the special unitary group, consisting of those unitary matrices with determinant 1. In the simple case n = 1, the group U(1) corresponds to the circle group, isomorphic to the set of all complex numbers that have absolute value 1, under multiplication ...

  4. Group isomorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_isomorphism

    For that group all permutations of the three non-identity elements are automorphisms, so the automorphism group is isomorphic to (which itself is isomorphic to ). In Z p {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} _{p}} for a prime number p , {\displaystyle p,} one non-identity element can be replaced by any other, with corresponding changes in the other elements.

  5. Dirichlet's unit theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirichlet's_unit_theorem

    Then let E 1 denote the set of global units ε that map to U 1 via the diagonal embedding of the global units in E. Since E 1 is a finite-index subgroup of the global units, it is an abelian group of rank r 1 + r 2 − 1. The p-adic regulator is the determinant of the matrix formed by the p-adic logarithms of the generators of this group.

  6. 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)

  7. General linear group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_linear_group

    The set of all nonzero scalar matrices forms a subgroup of GL(n, F) isomorphic to F ×. This group is the center of GL(n, F). In particular, it is a normal, abelian subgroup. The center of SL(n, F) is simply the set of all scalar matrices with unit determinant, and is isomorphic to the group of nth roots of unity in the field F.

  8. Klein four-group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klein_four-group

    V is the symmetry group of this cross: flipping it horizontally (a) or vertically (b) or both (ab) leaves it unchanged.A quarter-turn changes it. In two dimensions, the Klein four-group is the symmetry group of a rhombus and of rectangles that are not squares, the four elements being the identity, the vertical reflection, the horizontal reflection, and a 180° rotation.

  9. Cyclic group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_group

    This is a bijection if and only if r is coprime with n, so the automorphism group of Z/nZ is isomorphic to the unit group (Z/nZ) ×. [18] Similarly, the endomorphism ring of the additive group of Z is isomorphic to the ring Z. Its automorphism group is isomorphic to the group of units of the ring Z, which is ({−1, +1}, ×) ≅ C 2.
