  2. Symbols of grouping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbols_of_grouping

    The symbol of grouping knows as "braces" has two major uses. If two of these symbols are used, one on the left and the mirror image of it on the right, it almost always indicates a set , as in { a , b , c } {\displaystyle \{a,b,c\}} , the set containing three members, a {\displaystyle a} , b {\displaystyle b} , and c {\displaystyle c} .

    Rigor is a cornerstone quality of mathematics, and can play an important role in preventing mathematics from degenerating into fallacies. well-behaved An object is well-behaved (in contrast with being Pathological ) if it satisfies certain prevailing regularity properties, or if it conforms to mathematical intuition (even though intuition can ...

    A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula.

  5. Presentation of a group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presentation_of_a_group

    In mathematics, a presentation is one method of specifying a group.A presentation of a group G comprises a set S of generators—so that every element of the group can be written as a product of powers of some of these generators—and a set R of relations among those generators.

  6. Group (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, a group is a set with an operation that satisfies the following constraints: the operation is associative, it has an identity element, and every element of the set has an inverse element. Many mathematical structures are groups endowed with other properties.

  7. Group theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_theory

    This definition can be understood in two directions, both of which give rise to whole new domains of mathematics. [3] On the one hand, it may yield new information about the group G: often, the group operation in G is abstractly given, but via ρ, it corresponds to the multiplication of matrices, which is very explicit. [4]

  9. Tempered representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempered_representation

    Any irreducible tempered representation is a basic representation, and conversely any basic representation is the sum of a finite number of irreducible tempered representations. More precisely, it is a direct sum of 2 r irreducible tempered representations indexed by the characters of an elementary abelian group R of order 2 r (called the R ...
