The degree of a group of permutations of a finite set is the number of elements in the set. The order of a group (of any type) is the number of elements (cardinality) in the group. By Lagrange's theorem, the order of any finite permutation group of degree n must divide n! since n-factorial is the order of the symmetric group S n.
The simplest example is the Klein four-group acting on the vertices of a square, which preserves the partition into diagonals. On the other hand, if a permutation group preserves only trivial partitions, it is transitive, except in the case of the trivial group acting on a 2-element set.

Example of a label showing the amount of niacin (Vitamin B3), and specifying to be niacinamide in the ingredient section.. As flour fortification started adding niacin in the US, the United States Government adopted the terms niacin (a shortened form of "nicotinic acid vitamin") and niacinamide in 1942 as alternate names for nicotinic acid and nicotinamide, respectively, and encouraged their ...
In mathematics and group theory, a block system for the action of a group G on a set X is a partition of X that is G-invariant. In terms of the associated equivalence relation on X, G-invariance means that x ~ y implies gx ~ gy. for all g ∈ G and all x, y ∈ X. The action of G on X induces a natural action of G on any block system for X.
A 4 is the smallest group demonstrating that the converse of Lagrange's theorem is not true in general: given a finite group G and a divisor d of | G |, there does not necessarily exist a subgroup of G with order d: the group G = A 4, of order 12, has no subgroup of order 6. A subgroup of three elements (generated by a cyclic rotation of three ...
