Group products

Direct product of groups

In mathematics, specifically in group theory, the direct product is an operation that takes two groups G and H and constructs a new group, usually denoted G × H. This operation is the group-theoretic analogue of the Cartesian product of sets and is one of several important notions of direct product in mathematics. In the context of abelian groups, the direct product is sometimes referred to as the direct sum, and is denoted . Direct sums play an important role in the classification of abelian groups: according to the fundamental theorem of finite abelian groups, every finite abelian group can be expressed as the direct sum of cyclic groups.

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 3.4: Direct products

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 3.4: Direct products There is a natural way to put a group structure on the Cartesian product of two groups. In this lecture, we introduce this concept algebraically, and show several different ways to visualize this, using tools such as Cayley diagrams and mu

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.

Direct Products of Groups (Abstract Algebra)

The direct product is a way to combine two groups into a new, larger group. Just as you can factor integers into prime numbers, you can break apart some groups into a direct product of simpler groups. Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss new lessons from Socratica: http://bit.ly/1ixuu

Product group example

There is no better way of understanding product groups than working through and example. In this video we look at the product group of the cyclic group with two elements and itself. The final result is isomorphic to what we call the Klein 4 group.

Martin Bridson - Subgroups of direct products of surface groups

After reviewing what is known about subgroups of direct products of surface groups and their significance in the story of which groups are Kähler, I shall describe a new construction that provides infinite families of finitely presented subgroups. These subgroups have varying higher-finite

Abstract Algebra - 8.1 External Direct Products

Let's explore how we can create new groups using existing groups. We do that by essentially creating the cartesian product of the existing groups. We look at the properties associated with these products and delve into how to show isomorphisms between an external direct product and existin

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
