A group in which any decreasing chain of distinct subgroups terminates after a finite number.

Let P be a polynomial of degree n with derivative P^'. Then ||P^'||_infty<=n||P||_infty, where ||P||_infty=max_(|z|=1)|P(z)|.

If O_(p^')(G)=1 and if x is a p-element of G, then L_(p^')(C_G(x))<=E(C_G(x)), where L_(p^') is the p-layer.

A ring is commutative if the multiplication operation is commutative.

Two algebraic objects that are commutative, i.e., A and B such that A*B=B*A for some operation *, are said to commute with each other.

A complex polynomial is a polynomial with complex coefficients.

Given a quadratic form Q(x,y)=x^2+y^2, (1) then Q(x,y)Q(x^',y^')=Q(xx^'-yy^',x^'y+xy^'), (2) since (x^2+y^2)(x^('2)+y^('2)) = (xx^'-yy^')^2+(xy^'+x^'y)^2 (3) = ...

The number of elements of a group in a given conjugacy class.

The order of the polynomial defining an algebraic curve.

z^p-y^p=(z-y)(z-zetay)...(z-zeta^(p-1)y), where zeta=e^(2pii/p) (a de Moivre number) and p is a prime.
