This book was released on 2020-06-08 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows new directions in group theory motivated by computer science. It reflects the transition from geometric group theory to group theory of the 21st century that has strong connections to computer science. Now that geometric group theory is drifting further and further away from group theory to geometry, it is natural to look for new tools and new directions in group theory which are present.
Book Synopsis Contributions to Algebra by : Hyman Bass
Download or read book Contributions to Algebra written by Hyman Bass and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-10 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contributions to Algebra: A Collection of Papers Dedicated to Ellis Kolchin provides information pertinent to commutative algebra, linear algebraic group theory, and differential algebra. This book covers a variety of topics, including complex analysis, logic, K-theory, stochastic matrices, and differential geometry. Organized into 29 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the influence that Ellis Kolchin's work on the Galois theory of differential fields has had on the development of differential equations. This text then discusses the background model theoretic work in differential algebra and discusses the notion of model completions. Other chapters consider some properties of differential closures and some immediate consequences and include extensive notes with proofs. This book discusses as well the problems in finite group theory in finding the complex finite projective groups of a given degree. The final chapter deals with the finite forms of quasi-simple algebraic groups. This book is a valuable resource for students.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the pervasive phenomena in the history of science is the development of independent disciplines from the solution or attempted solutions of problems in other areas of science. In the Twentieth Century, the creation of specialties witqin the sciences has accelerated to the point where a large number of scientists in any major branch of science cannot understand the work of a colleague in another subdiscipline of his own science. Despite this fragmentation, the development of techniques or solutions of problems in one area very often contribute fundamentally to solutions of problems in a seemingly unrelated field. Therefore, an examination of this phenomenon of the formation of independent disciplines within the sciences would contrib ute to the understanding of their evolution in modern times. We believe that in this context the history of combinatorial group theory in the late Nineteenth Century and the Twentieth Century can be used effectively as a case study. It is a reasonably well-defined independent specialty, and yet it is closely related to other mathematical disciplines. The fact that combinatorial group theory has, so far, not been influenced by the practical needs of science and technology makes it possible for us to use combinatorial group theory to exhibit the role of the intellectual aspects of the development of mathematics in a clearcut manner. There are other features of combinatorial group theory which appear to make it a reasona ble choice as the object of a historical study.
Book Synopsis Group Theory in a Nutshell for Physicists by : A. Zee
Download or read book Group Theory in a Nutshell for Physicists written by A. Zee and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-29 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A concise, modern textbook on group theory written especially for physicists Although group theory is a mathematical subject, it is indispensable to many areas of modern theoretical physics, from atomic physics to condensed matter physics, particle physics to string theory. In particular, it is essential for an understanding of the fundamental forces. Yet until now, what has been missing is a modern, accessible, and self-contained textbook on the subject written especially for physicists. Group Theory in a Nutshell for Physicists fills this gap, providing a user-friendly and classroom-tested text that focuses on those aspects of group theory physicists most need to know. From the basic intuitive notion of a group, A. Zee takes readers all the way up to how theories based on gauge groups could unify three of the four fundamental forces. He also includes a concise review of the linear algebra needed for group theory, making the book ideal for self-study. Provides physicists with a modern and accessible introduction to group theory Covers applications to various areas of physics, including field theory, particle physics, relativity, and much more Topics include finite group and character tables; real, pseudoreal, and complex representations; Weyl, Dirac, and Majorana equations; the expanding universe and group theory; grand unification; and much more The essential textbook for students and an invaluable resource for researchers Features a brief, self-contained treatment of linear algebra An online illustration package is available to professors Solutions manual (available only to professors)
Download or read book Group Theory written by Karl W. Gruenberg and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume celebrates the major impact on modern group theory made by Philip Hall. The survey articles were commissioned to provide reasonably self-contained, up-to-date and forward-looking accounts of finite and infinite group theory. Mathematicians working on group theory and ring theory will find this volume interesting and useful, and the material is accessible to students specializing in algebra. This book was prepared for Philip Hall's 80th birthday, but is now published after his death as a tribute to his genius. FROM THE PREFACE: This book was to have been an eightieth birthday present for Philip Hall. In the summer of 1980 the Council of the London Mathematical Society asked us to edit a volume to mark Hall's 80th birthday on the eleventh of April 1984. We decided to produce a book in two parts: the first to consist of commissioned survey articles and the second of submitted research papers. Because we intended to invite research articles by advertisement, we had to tell Hall something of our plans; this we did at a pub lunch outside Cambridge in May 1981. At the same time we asked him if he would agree to take part in a birthday celebration in his honour which had been proposed by the Society. Characteristically he said that he would prefer no public festivity; but he liked the idea of a book, especially the surveys. Our idea was that each survey would give a reasonably self-contained, up-to-date and forward-looking account of an area in which Hall had made important contributions. In view of Hall's considerable impact on modern group theory, we hoped that the essays would together form a fairly coherent picture of the subject. So as to avoid too much overlap, we suggested to each author the area we should like him to cover, but only in broad terms; the choice of material within the suggested area was left entirely to him. It was inevitable, perhaps, that gaps would remain. When Hall died on 30th December 1982, we felt that the second half of the planned book was no longer appropriate, but that the essays should still be published. We offer them here not as a memorial volume, since they were largely written while Philip Hall was alive and well, but as a tribute to his genius.
Book Synopsis Group Theory by : Predrag Cvitanović
Download or read book Group Theory written by Predrag Cvitanović and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-26 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If classical Lie groups preserve bilinear vector norms, what Lie groups preserve trilinear, quadrilinear, and higher order invariants? Answering this question from a fresh and original perspective, Predrag Cvitanovic takes the reader on the amazing, four-thousand-diagram journey through the theory of Lie groups. This book is the first to systematically develop, explain, and apply diagrammatic projection operators to construct all semi-simple Lie algebras, both classical and exceptional. The invariant tensors are presented in a somewhat unconventional, but in recent years widely used, "birdtracks" notation inspired by the Feynman diagrams of quantum field theory. Notably, invariant tensor diagrams replace algebraic reasoning in carrying out all group-theoretic computations. The diagrammatic approach is particularly effective in evaluating complicated coefficients and group weights, and revealing symmetries hidden by conventional algebraic or index notations. The book covers most topics needed in applications from this new perspective: permutations, Young projection operators, spinorial representations, Casimir operators, and Dynkin indices. Beyond this well-traveled territory, more exotic vistas open up, such as "negative dimensional" relations between various groups and their representations. The most intriguing result of classifying primitive invariants is the emergence of all exceptional Lie groups in a single family, and the attendant pattern of exceptional and classical Lie groups, the so-called Magic Triangle. Written in a lively and personable style, the book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in theoretical physics and mathematics.
Book Synopsis Computational Group Theory and the Theory of Groups by : Luise-Charlotte Kappe
Download or read book Computational Group Theory and the Theory of Groups written by Luise-Charlotte Kappe and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The power of general purpose computational algebra systems running on personal computers has increased rapidly in recent years. For mathematicians doing research in group theory, this means a growing set of sophisticated computational tools are now available for their use in developing new theoretical results." "This volume consists of contributions by researchers invited to the AMS Special Session on Computational Group Theory held in March 2007. The main focus of the session was on the application of Computational Group Theory (CGT) to a wide range of theoretical aspects of group theory. The articles in this volume provide a variety of examples of how these computer systems helped to solve interesting theoretical problems within the discipline, such as constructions of finite simple groups, classification of $p$-groups via coclass, representation theory and constructions involving free nilpotent groups. The volume also includes an article by R. F. Morse highlighting applications of CGT in group theory and two survey articles." "Graduate students and researchers interested in various aspects of group theory will find many examples of Computational Group Theory helping research and will recognize it as yet another tool at their disposal."--BOOK JACKET.

This book was released on with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reproduces the doctoral thesis written by a remarkable mathematician, Sergei V. Kerov. His untimely death at age 54 left the mathematical community with an extensive body of work and this one-of-a-kind monograph. Here, he gives a clear and lucid account of results and methods of asymptotic representation theory. The book is a unique source of information on an important topic of current research. Asymptotic representation theory of symmetric groups deals with problems of two types: asymptotic properties of representations of symmetric groups of large order and representations of the limiting object, i.e., the infinite symmetric group. The author contributed significantly in the development of both directions. His book presents an account of these contributions, as well as those of other researchers. Among the problems of the first type, the author discusses the properties of the distribution of the normalized cycle length in a random permutation and the limiting shape of a random (with respect to the Plancherel measure) Young diagram. He also studies stochastic properties of the deviations of random diagrams from the limiting curve. Among the problems of the second type, Kerov studies an important problem of computing irreducible characters of the infinite symmetric group. This leads to the study of a continuous analog of the notion of Young diagram, and in particular, to a continuous analogue of the hook walk algorithm, which is well known in the combinatorics of finite Young diagrams. In turn, this construction provides a completely new description of the relation between the classical moment problems of Hausdorff and Markov. The book is suitable for graduate students and research mathematicians interested in representation theory and combinatorics.

Flemisch and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-03-07 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part 3 of the second Trilogy "The Strong Sylow Theorem for the Prime p in the Locally Finite Classical Groups" & "The Strong Sylow Theorem for the Prime p in Locally Finite and p-Soluble Groups" & "Augustin-Louis Cauchy's and Évariste Galois' Contributions to Sylow Theory in Finite Groups" proves for a subgroup G of the finite group H Lagrange's theorem and three group theorems by Cauchy, where the second and the third were concealed, by a unified method of proof consisting in smart arranging the elements of H resp. the cosets of G in H in a rectangle/tableau. Cauchy's third theorem requires the existence of a Sylow p-subgroup of H. These classical proofs are supplemented by modern proofs based on cosets resp. double cosets which take only a few lines. We then analyse first his well-known published group theorem of 1845/1846, for which he constructs a Sylow p-subgroup of Sn, thereby correcting a misunderstanding in the literature and introducing wreath products, and second his published group theorem of 1812/1815, which is related to theorems of Lagrange, Vandermonde and Ruffini. Subsequently we present what Galois knew about Cauchy's group theorems and about Sylow's theorems by referring to his published papers and as well to his posthumously published papers and to his manuscripts. We close with a detailed narrative of early group theory and early Sylow theory in finite groups.

Book Synopsis The Theory of Classes of Groups by : Guo Wenbin
Download or read book The Theory of Classes of Groups written by Guo Wenbin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the characteristics of modern algebra is the development of new tools and concepts for exploring classes of algebraic systems, whereas the research on individual algebraic systems (e. g. , groups, rings, Lie algebras, etc. ) continues along traditional lines. The early work on classes of alge bras was concerned with showing that one class X of algebraic systems is actually contained in another class F. Modern research into the theory of classes was initiated in the 1930's by Birkhoff's work [1] on general varieties of algebras, and Neumann's work [1] on varieties of groups. A. I. Mal'cev made fundamental contributions to this modern development. ln his re ports [1, 3] of 1963 and 1966 to The Fourth All-Union Mathematics Con ference and to another international mathematics congress, striking the ories of classes of algebraic systems were presented. These were later included in his book [5]. International interest in the theory of formations of finite groups was aroused, and rapidly heated up, during this time, thanks to the work of Gaschiitz [8] in 1963, and the work of Carter and Hawkes [1] in 1967. The major topics considered were saturated formations, Fitting classes, and Schunck classes. A class of groups is called a formation if it is closed with respect to homomorphic images and subdirect products. A formation is called saturated provided that G E F whenever Gjip(G) E F.
