Multiplicative group

In mathematics and group theory, the term multiplicative group refers to one of the following concepts: * the group under multiplication of the invertible elements of a field, ring, or other structure for which one of its operations is referred to as multiplication. In the case of a field F, the group is (F ∖ {0}, •), where 0 refers to the zero element of F and the binary operation • is the field multiplication, * the algebraic torus GL(1).. (Wikipedia).

Symmetric groups

In this video we construct a symmetric group from the set that contains the six permutations of a 3 element group under composition of mappings as our binary operation. The specifics topics in this video include: permutations, sets, groups, injective, surjective, bijective mappings, onto

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 3.5: Quotient groups

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 3.5: Quotient groups Like how a direct product can be thought of as a way to "multiply" two groups, a quotient is a way to "divide" a group by one of its subgroups. We start by defining this in terms of collapsing Cayley diagrams, until we get a conjecture abo

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

What is a Group? | Abstract Algebra

Welcome to group theory! In today's lesson we'll be going over the definition of a group. We'll see the four group axioms in action with some examples, and some non-examples as well which violate the axioms and are thus not groups. In a fundamental way, groups are structures built from s

Theory of numbers: Multiplicative functions

This lecture is part of an online undergraduate course on the theory of numbers. Multiplicative functions are functions such that f(mn)=f(m)f(n) whenever m and n are coprime. We discuss some examples, such as the number of divisors, the sum of the divisors, and Euler's totient function.

Why Normal Subgroups are Necessary for Quotient Groups

Proof that cosets are disjoint: https://youtu.be/uxhAUmgSHnI In order for a subgroup to create a quotient group (also known as factor group), it must be a normal subgroup. That means that when we conjugate an element in the subgroup, it stays in the subgroup. In this video, we explain wh

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 7.1: Basic ring theory

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 7.1: Basic ring theory A ring is an abelian group (R,+) with a second binary operation, multiplication and the distributive law. Multiplication need not commute, nor need there be multiplicative inverses, so a ring is like a field but without these properties.
