Group theory

Nottingham group

In the mathematical field of infinite group theory, the Nottingham group is the group J(Fp) or N(Fp) consisting of formal power series t + a2t2+...with coefficients in Fp. The group multiplication is given by formal composition also called substitution. That is, if and if is another element, then . The group multiplication is not abelian. The group was studied by number theorists as the group of wild automorphisms of the local field Fp((t)) and by group theorists including D. and the name "Nottingham group" refers to his former domicile. This group is a finitely generated pro-p-group, of finite width. For every finite group of order a power of p there is a closed subgroup of the Nottingham group isomorphic to that finite group.

Product groups

Now that we have defined and understand quotient groups, we need to look at product groups. In this video I define the product of two groups as well as the group operation, proving that it is indeed a group.

Group Definition (expanded) - Abstract Algebra

The group is the most fundamental object you will study in abstract algebra. Groups generalize a wide variety of mathematical sets: the integers, symmetries of shapes, modular arithmetic, NxM matrices, and much more. After learning about groups in detail, you will then be ready to contin

Dihedral Group (Abstract Algebra)

The Dihedral Group is a classic finite group from abstract algebra. It is a non abelian groups (non commutative), and it is the group of symmetries of a regular polygon. This group is easy to work with computationally, and provides a great example of one connection between groups and geo
