Extractions: POINTERS: Texts Software Web links Selected topics here Group theory can be considered the study of symmetry: the collection of symmetries of some object preserving some of its structure forms a group; in some sense all groups arise this way. Formally, a group is a set G on which there is a multiplication '*' defined, satisfying the associative law. In addition, there is to be an element '1' in G with 1*g=g*1=g for every g in G; and every element g in G must have an inverse h satisfying g*h=h*g=1. A particularly important class of groups is the set of permutation groups, those in which the elements are permutations of some set, and the group operation is simply composition. For example, the symmetric group on N objects is the set of all N! rearrangements of the N elements. Other important examples include the alternating groups and the Mathieu groups. In some sense, every group is a permutation group, but interesting questions arise in relation to the action on the set. For example, one considers groups which are highly transitive (they include enough symmetries to permute many large subsets), or groups which preserve additional structure of the set being permuted (angles in space, for example). Many combinatorial questions can be reduced to questions about the symmetric group; even the Rubik's cube can be viewed as a puzzle concerning a particular permutation group.

Extractions: by The JavaScript Source Group Theory is one of the most powerful mathematical tools used in Quantum Chemistry and Spectroscopy. It allows the user to predict, interpret, rationalize, and often simplify complex theory and data. At its heart is the fact that the Set of Operations associated with the Symmetry Elements of a molecule constitute a mathematical set called a Group . This allows the application of the mathematical theorems associated with such groups to the Symmetry Operations All Symmetry Operations associated with isolated molecules can be characterized as Rotations: (a) Proper Rotations : C n k ; k = 1,......, n

http://www-gap.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/HistTopics/Development_group_theory.htm

Extractions: The study of the development of a concept such as that of a group has certain difficulties. It would be wrong to say that since the non-zero rationals form a group under multiplication then the origin of the group concept must go back to the beginnings of mathematics. Rather we must take the view that group theory is the abstraction of ideas that were common to a number of major areas which were being studied essentially simultaneously. The three main areas that were to give rise to group theory are:- (1) Geometry has been studied for a very long time so it is reasonable to ask what happened to geometry at the beginning of the 19 th Century that was to contribute to the rise of the group concept. Geometry had began to lose its 'metric' character with projective and non-euclidean geometries being studied. Also the movement to study geometry in n dimensions led to an abstraction in geometry itself. The difference between metric and incidence geometry comes from the work of Monge , his student Carnot and perhaps most importantly the work of Poncelet . Non-euclidean geometry was studied by Lambert Gauss Lobachevsky Bolyai among others.

An Introduction To GROUP THEORY
What is group theory? What is the operation symbolized by the dot ()? group theoryis concerned with systems in which (2) always has a unique solution.
http://members.tripod.com/~dogschool/groups.html

Extractions: The answer depends on what "things" we allow x to be. If we are doing all our arithmetic using the integers then there is no solutionthere is no integer that gives 3 upon being multiplied by 4. On the other hand if we are doing our arithmetic in Z /5 ("Integers mod 5" as it's sometimes called) then x = 2 is a solution. If we are using the more usual rational number system Q , then the solution is x We can gain insight into all such questions by considering the equation and then bringing up the question of solutions. Well, what objects are a and b ? To what class of objects is x Group theory is concerned with systems in which (2) always has a unique solution. The theory does not concern itself with what a and b The axioms (basic rules) for a group are: CLOSURE : If a and b are in the group then is also in the group.

http://math.binghamton.edu/ross/contents.html

Extractions: by Ross Geoghegan "This is a book about the interplay between algebraic topology and the theory of infinite discrete groups. I have written it for three kinds of readers. First, it is for graduate students who have had an introductory course in algebraic topology and who need a bridge from common knowledge to the current research literature in geometric and homological group theory. Secondly, I am writing for group theorists who would like to know more about the topological side of their subject but who have been too long away from topology. Thirdly, I hope the book will be useful to manifold topologists, both high- and low-dimensional, as a reference source for basic material on proper homotopy and homology..."

http://www.bangor.ac.uk/~mas010/hdaweb2.htm

Extractions: Higher Dimensional Group Theory by Ronald Brown It is more than time to make some additional comments for these pages, as much has happened in the period since 1999. So much, indeed, that I cannot envisage in the time available a full update of the bibliography. What I can hope to do is point out some trends and give some indications of more recent literature. First of all, the title of this web page has not gained much currency, but a web search on " Higher dimensional algebra " shows that this more general term has caught on. It was introduced in my survey article [B:87] in the words: `A naive viewpoint is that n -dimensional geometry needs n -dimensional algebra'. John Baez has many articles and writings putting over this point of view, more than the three listed in the bibliography here. His web page ` This week's find in mathematical physics ' has many items in this area, and you could start at week 53 from 1995. There is much discussion in the Newsgroup: sci.physics.research. A lot of research in Higher Dimensional Algebra is concerned, for good reasons, with notions of weak infinity category. A good survey of definitions on this is by Tom Leinster, published in TAC . Work on this was stimulated by the 1983 manuscript of Alexander Grothendieck, Pursuing Stacks, which is now being edited for publication by the SMF by

Extractions: Lie Groups and Symmetric Functions For details of pricing and ordering go to Contact Information. Schur is a stand alone C program for interactively calculating properties of Lie groups and symmetric functions. Schur has been designed to answer questions of relevance to a wide range of problems of special interest to chemists, mathematicians and physicists - particularly for persons who need specific knowledge relating to some aspect of Lie groups or symmetric functions and yet do not wish to be encumbered with complex algorithms. The objective of Schur is to supply results with the complexity of the algorithms hidden from view so that the user can effectively use Schur as a scratch pad, obtaining a result and then using that result to derive new results in a fully interactive manner. Schur can be used as a tool for calculating branching rules
