Abelian group theory

Torsion abelian group

In abstract algebra, a torsion abelian group is an abelian group in which every element has finite order. For example, the torsion subgroup of an abelian group is a torsion abelian group. (Wikipedia).

Theorem 1.10 - part 09 - Torsion Points of Abelian Varieties

We review some basic galois theory about torsion points of abelian varieties. In the next video we discuss the Serre-Tate theory (not about deformations but about conductors.

Homological algebra 1: Tor for abelian groups

This lecture is part of an online course on commutative algebra, following the book "Commutative algebra with a view toward algebraic geometry" by David Eisenbud. We give two examples to motivate the definition of the groups Tor(A,B), from the universal coefficient theorem of algebraic t

Groups and subgroups

Jacob explains the fundamental concepts in group theory of what groups and subgroups are, and highlights a few examples of groups you may already know. Abelian groups are named in honor of Niels Henrik Abel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_Henrik_Abel), who pioneered the subject of

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.

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

Theorem 1.10 - part 10.7 - Neron-Ogg-Shafarevich - Exact Sequences and Torsion

We prove a little lemma we used that states that if 0 \to A' \to A \to A'' \to 0 is an exact sequence of abelian groups and A' is divisible then taking m-torsion will give and exact sequence of m-torsion.

Karen Vogtmann - On the cohomological dimension of automorphism groups of RAAGs

The class of right-angled Artin groups (RAAGs) includes free groups and free abelian groups, Both of these have extremely interesting automorphism groups, which share some properties and not others. We are interested in automorphism groups of general RAAGs, and in particular

Etale Theta - part 3 - Interior/Cuspidal Cyclotome and the cover Xu

Here is what we do: *explain the cyclotome appearing in the two step nilpotent quotient of Delta. This cyclotome is used for coefficients for the Kummer class of the Jacobi Theta function. *We construct covers Xu of a punctured elliptic curve which depends on a choice of l-torsion subgrou
