20: Group Theory And Generalizations
20 group theory and Generalizations 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.
http://www.math.niu.edu/~rusin/known-math/index/20-XX.html

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-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/HistTopics/Development_group_theory.

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 19th 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. ASSOCIATIVITY : If a, b and c are in the group then IDENTITY : There is an element e of the group such that for any element a of the group
