Properties of groups | Solvable groups

Solvable group

In mathematics, more specifically in the field of group theory, a solvable group or soluble group is a group that can be constructed from abelian groups using extensions. Equivalently, a solvable group is a group whose derived series terminates in the trivial subgroup. (Wikipedia).

Lie groups: Lie's theorem

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Lie groups. This lecture is about Lie's theorem, which implies that a complex solvable Lie algebra is isomorphic to a subalgebra of the upper triangular matrices. . For the other lectures in the course see https://www.youtube.com/playl

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

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.

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

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.

Galois theory: Abel's theorem

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Galois theory. We discuss Abel's theorem, that says a general quintic equation cannot be solved by radicals. We do this by showing that if a polynomial can be solved by radicals over a field of characteristic 0 then its roots lie in a s
