Unless you know some Group Theory, this free program won't do much for you. I dabble in Groups due to their strong symmetries. My study of Fair Dice used the Sylow Theorem, which is helpful in enumerating groups of a certain size. So then, what is a Group? A group is an ordered pair ( G , *) such that G is a set, * is an associative binary operation on G , and there exists an identity element e such that: if a is in G , then a e a. if a in in G , then there exists b in G such that a b e. Examples of Infinite Groups: the integers where * = addition, the real numbers where * = addition, the positive real numbers > where * = multiplication. Examples of Finite Groups: A B subgroup A B . So far, all the groups mentioned are commutative ( ab ba for all a b in G ). Such commutative groups are called abelian groups . It is possible to have nonabelian groups The above set forms a complete group under matrix multiplication. It is equivalent to a six-sided die made by gluing two tetrahedra together.

Group Theory and Architecture, 2: Why Symmetry/Asymmetry? Professor Michael Leyton. Dept. of Psychology, Rutgers University Introduction This is the second in a sequence of tutorials on the mathematical structure of architecture. The first was Group Theory and Architecture, 1 . The purpose of these tutorials is to present, in an easy form, the technical theory developed in my forthcoming book on the mathematical structure of design. In this second tutorial we are going to look at the functional role of symmetry and asymmetry in architecture. We are all aware that classical architecture was dominated by symmetry. In contrast, we have seen, in the 20th century, a shift from the dominating role of symmetry to the gradual raising of asymmetry as the major principle. Famous examples of the latter include Frank Lloyd Wright's Falling Water , with its asymmetrically arranged blocks, or Eero Saarinen's TWA Building with its free form structure, or in the contemporary world, the Deconstructivist Architects are now the dominant force. The latter movement came into significant public recognition with the exhibition of their work in the Museum of Modern Art, New York, in1988, and these architects are now the most famous archictects in the world - usually winning the major architecture competitions. They include Peter Eisenman, Zaha Hadid, Frank Gehry, Coop Himmelblau, Rem Koolhaas, Daniel Libeskind, and Bernard Tschumi. In all their buildings

Laboratory Experiences in Group Theory Ellen Maycock Parker A lab manual and accompanying software for introductory courses in group theory or abstract algebra ...a useful adjunct to lectures and homework for a first course in higher algebra...The accompanying diskette contains an efficient table checker...The software is easy to use. Math Reviews With an attractive price and simple interface, this package is highly recommended. It will do much to make the learning and teaching of basic group theory an easier operation. -Journal of Recreational Mathematics Laboratory Experiences in Group Theory is a workbook of 15 laboratories designed to be used with the software Exploring Small Groups as a supplement to the regular textbook in an introductory course in group theory or abstract algebra. Written in a step-by-step manner, the laboratories encourage students to discover the basic concepts of group theory and to make conjectures from examples that are easily generated by the software. The labs can be assigned as outside work or they can be used in a structured laboratory setting. Since the software is very user-friendly and the laboratories are complete, students and faculty should have no difficulty in using the labs without training. Most students find the laboratory component of this course to be an enjoyable alternative to the "theorem-proof-example" format of a standard abstract algebra course.

Read This! The MAA Online book review column Matrix Groups: An Introduction to Lie Group Theory, by Andrew Baker Reviewed by David P. Roberts The first reference cited in Matrix Groups is a 1983 Monthly article by Roger Howe, Very Basic Lie Theory . In his article, Howe discusses a "pedagogy gap." On the one hand, Lie theory touches "a tremendous spectrum of mathematical areas," from number theory to physics. On the other hand, "it has barely penetrated the undergraduate curriculum." Howe identifies the source of the pedagogy gap as the fact that substantial prerequisites are required for the foundations of Lie theory. More optimistically, he writes, While a complete discussion of Lie theory does require fairly elaborate preparation, a large portion of its essence is accessible on a much simpler level, appropriate to advanced undergraduate instruction. Howe goes on to present the theory at what he views as the appropriate simpler level. A centerpiece of his presentation is the theorem that a closed subgroup of the matrix group GL n (R) automatically has the structure of a differentiable manifold and is thus a Lie group.

See also list of group theory topics Table of contents 1 History 2 Elementary introduction 3 Some useful theorems 4 Generalizations ... 6 External link History There are three historial roots of group theory: theory of algebraic equations, number theory and geometry . Euler, Gauss, Lagrange, Abel and Galois were precedent researchers in the field of group theory. Galois is honored as the first mathematician linking group theory with field theory , whose theory is now called Galois theory It was Walter Van Dyck who in 1882 gave the modern definition of a group. Other important mathematicians in this subject area includes Artin, Noether, Sylow, and many more. Elementary introduction Groups are used throughout mathematics and the sciences, often to capture the internal symmetry of other structures, in the form of automorphism groups. In Galois theory, which is the historical origin of the group concept, one uses groups to describe the symmetries of the equations satisfied by the solutions to a polynomial equation. The solvable groups are so-named because of their prominent role in this theory.

Asymptotic and Probabilistic Methods in Geometric Group Theory Monday June 20 to Saturday June 25, 2005 at the University of Geneva , Switzerland organized by Goulnara N. Arzhantseva Laurent Bartholdi Alexander Yu. Ol'shanskii Mark Sapir , and Efim Zelmanov This conference, sponsored by the University of Geneva and the Swiss National Fund for Scientific Research is devoted to the study of asymptotic and probabilistic methods in group theory. It will explore groups from various aspects: combinatorial and algebraic (groups defined by generators and relations), topological (fundamental groups of low-dimensional topological spaces), geometric (groups given by their action on negatively curved spaces, or on Hilbert spaces). It aims to attract researchers worldwide, from all these areas. The main topics for the workshop are Geometric invariants and asymptotic geometry of groups; Geometric actions of groups, quasi-isometries; Growth and isoperimetric functions on groups, distortion; Spectra of graphs, random walks, languages, automata; Probabilistic and random methods on finite and infinite groups;
