Perfect group

In mathematics, more specifically in group theory, a group is said to be perfect if it equals its own commutator subgroup, or equivalently, if the group has no non-trivial abelian quotients (equivalently, its abelianization, which is the universal abelian quotient, is trivial). In symbols, a perfect group is one such that G(1) = G (the commutator subgroup equals the group), or equivalently one such that Gab = {1} (its abelianization is trivial). (Wikipedia).

Group theory 31: Free groups

This lecture is part of an online math course on group theory. We review free abelian groups, then construct free (non-abelian) groups, and show that they are given by the set of reduced words, and as a bonus find that they are residually finite.

Simple Groups - Abstract Algebra

Simple groups are the building blocks of finite groups. After decades of hard work, mathematicians have finally classified all finite simple groups. Today we talk about why simple groups are so important, and then cover the four main classes of simple groups: cyclic groups of prime order

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.

Quotient groups

The idea of a quotient group follows easily from cosets and Lagrange's theorem. In this video, we start with a normal subgroup and develop the idea of a quotient group, by viewing each coset (together with the normal subgroup) as individual mathematical objects in a set. This set, under

Every Group is a Quotient of a Free Group

First isomorphism theorem: https://youtu.be/ssVIJO5uNeg An explanation of a proof that every finite group is a quotient of a free group. A similar proof also applies to infinite groups because we can consider a free group on an infinite number of elements! Group Theory playlist: https://

301.2 Definition of a Group

A group is (in a sense) the simplest structure in which we can do the familiar tasks associated with "algebra." First, in this video, we review the definition of a group.

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

Chapter 5: Quotient groups | Essence of Group Theory

Quotient groups is a very important concept in group theory, because it has paramount importance in group homomorphisms (connection with the isomorphism theorem(s)). With this video series, abstract algebra needs not be abstract - one can easily develop intuitions for group theory! In fac

The absolute cohomological purity conjecture of Grothendieck proved by Gabber ensures that on regular schemes étale cohomology classes of fixed cohomological degree extend uniquely over closed subschemes of large codimension. I will discuss the corresponding phenomenon for flat cohomology.
