Symmetric Groups (Abstract Algebra)
Symmetric groups are some of the most essential types of finite groups. A symmetric group is the group of permutations on a set. The group of permutations on a set of n-elements is denoted S_n. Symmetric groups capture the history of abstract algebra, provide a wide range of examples in

AlgTopReview4: Free abelian groups and non-commutative groups
Free abelian groups play an important role in algebraic topology. These are groups modelled on the additive group of integers Z, and their theory is analogous to the theory of vector spaces. We state the Fundamental Theorem of Finitely Generated Commutative Groups, which says that any such

Group Theory II Symmetry Groups
Why are groups so popular? Well, in part it is because of their ability to characterise symmetries. This makes them a powerful tool in physics, where symmetry underlies our whole understanding of the fundamental forces. In this introduction to group theory, I explain the symmetry group of

Definition of a group Lesson 24
In this video we take our first look at the definition of a group. It is basically a set of elements and the operation defined on them. If this set of elements and the operation defined on them obey the properties of closure and associativity, and if one of the elements is the identity el

What is a Group? | Abstract Algebra
Welcome to group theory! In today's lesson we'll be going over the definition of a group. We'll see the four group axioms in action with some examples, and some non-examples as well which violate the axioms and are thus not groups. In a fundamental way, groups are structures built from s

In this video we construct a symmetric group from the set that contains the six permutations of a 3 element group under composition of mappings as our binary operation. The specifics topics in this video include: permutations, sets, groups, injective, surjective, bijective mappings, onto

Symplectic forms in algebraic geometry - Giulia Saccà
Giulia Saccà Member, School of Mathematics January 30, 2015 Imposing the existence of a holomorphic symplectic form on a projective algebraic variety is a very strong condition. After describing various instances of this phenomenon (among which is the fact that so few examples are known!)

Abstract: Let G be a semisimple algebraic group of adjoint type. The universal centralizer is the family of centralizers in G of regular elements in Lie(G), parametrized by their conjugacy classes. It has a natural symplectic structure, obtained by Hamiltonian reduction from the cotangent
