2. Cayley table - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cayley_table

   Cayley table. Named after the 19th century British mathematician Arthur Cayley, a Cayley table describes the structure of a finite group by arranging all the possible products of all the group's elements in a square table reminiscent of an addition or multiplication table. Many properties of a group – such as whether or not it is abelian ...

3. Multiplication table - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication_table

   Multiplication table. In mathematics, a multiplication table (sometimes, less formally, a times table) is a mathematical table used to define a multiplication operation for an algebraic system. The decimal multiplication table was traditionally taught as an essential part of elementary arithmetic around the world, as it lays the foundation for ...

4. Multiplicative group of integers modulo n - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative_group_of...

   Integer multiplication respects the congruence classes, that is, a ≡ a' and b ≡ b' (mod n) implies ab ≡ a'b' (mod n). This implies that the multiplication is associative, commutative, and that the class of 1 is the unique multiplicative identity. Finally, given a, the multiplicative inverse of a modulo n is an integer x satisfying ax ≡ ...

5. Mathematical table - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_table

   The first tables of trigonometric functions known to be made were by Hipparchus (c.190 – c.120 BCE) and Menelaus (c.70–140 CE), but both have been lost. Along with the surviving table of Ptolemy (c. 90 – c.168 CE), they were all tables of chords and not of half-chords, that is, the sine function. [1]

6. Generator (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   Generator (mathematics) The 5th roots of unity in the complex plane under multiplication form a group of order 5. Each non-identity element by itself is a generator for the whole group. In mathematics and physics, the term generator or generating set may refer to any of a number of related concepts. The underlying concept in each case is that ...

7. Multiplication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication

   t. e. Multiplication (often denoted by the cross symbol ×, by the mid-line dot operator ⋅, by juxtaposition, or, on computers, by an asterisk *) is one of the four elementary mathematical operations of arithmetic, with the other ones being addition, subtraction, and division. The result of a multiplication operation is called a product.
