Theorems about finite groups

Burnside's theorem

In mathematics, Burnside's theorem in group theory states that if G is a finite group of order where p and q are prime numbers, and a and b are non-negative integers, then G is solvable. Hence eachnon-Abelian finite simple group has order divisible by at least three distinct primes. (Wikipedia).

Burnside's Lemma (Part 1) - combining group theory and combinatorics

A result often used in math competitions, Burnside's lemma is an interesting result in group theory that helps us count things with symmetries considered, e.g. in some situations, we don't want to count things that can be transformed into one another by rotation different, like in this cas

Representation theory: Burnside's theorem

In this talk we prove Burnside's theorem, that any group whose order is of the form p^aq^b for primes p and q is solvable. We first discuss characters of the center of the group ring of G, and use this to show that a certain number related to a character value is an algebraic integer. We

Katrin Tent: Burnside groups of relatively small odd exponent

The lecture was held within the framework of the Hausdorff Trimester Program: Logic and Algorithms in Group Theory. Abstract: (joint work with A. Atkarskaya and E. Rips) The free Burnside group B(n,m) of exponent m is the quotient of the free group on n generators by the normal subgroup

Rings and midules 3: Burnside ring and rings of differential operators

This lecture is part of an online course on rings and modules. We discuss a few assorted examples of rings. The Burnside ring of a group is a ring constructed form the permutation representations. The ring of differentail operators is a ring whose modules are related to differential equat

GT23. Composition and Classification

Abstract Algebra: We use composition series as another technique for studying finite groups, which leads to the notion of solvable groups and puts the focus on simple groups. From there, we survey the classification of finite simple groups and the Monster group.
