Let p be a prime number, G a finite group, and |G| the order of G. 1. If p divides |G|, then G has a Sylow p-subgroup. 2. In a finite group, all the Sylow p-subgroups are ...

The four following types of groups, 1. linear groups, 2. orthogonal groups, 3. symplectic groups, and 4. unitary groups, which were studied before more exotic types of groups ...

A planar graph corresponding to polyhedra skeletons. The polyhedral graphs are special cases.

The symbol ; given special meanings in several mathematics contexts, the most common of which is the covariant derivative.

Let G be a permutation group on a set Omega and x be an element of Omega. Then G_x={g in G:g(x)=x} (1) is called the stabilizer of x and consists of all the permutations of G ...

Abstractly, a spatial configuration F is said to possess rotational symmetry if F remains invariant under the group C=C(F). Here, C(F) denotes the group of rotations of F and ...

The backslash symbol \ is used to denote a set difference, quotient group, or integer division.

Frucht's theorem states that every finite group is the automorphism group of a finite undirected graph. This was conjectured by König (1936) and proved by Frucht (1939). In ...

A positive definite function f on a group G is a function for which the matrix {f(x_ix_j^(-1))} is always positive semidefinite Hermitian.

For a subgroup H of a group G, the index of H, denoted (G:H), is the cardinal number of the set of left cosets of H in G (which is equal to the cardinal number of the set of ...
