In mathematics, the complex Witt algebra, named after Ernst Witt, is the Lie algebra of meromorphic vector fields defined on the Riemann sphere that are holomorphic except at two fixed points. It is also the complexification of the Lie algebra of polynomial vector fields on a circle, and the Lie algebra of derivations of the ring C[z,z−1]. There are some related Lie algebras defined over finite fields, that are also called Witt algebras. The complex Witt algebra was first defined by Cartan (1909), and its analogues over finite fields were studied by Witt in the 1930s. (Wikipedia).
RNT1.4. Ideals and Quotient Rings
Ring Theory: We define ideals in rings as an analogue of normal subgroups in group theory. We give a correspondence between (two-sided) ideals and kernels of homomorphisms using quotient rings. We also state the First Isomorphism Theorem for Rings and give examples.

The Weyl algebra and the Heisenberg Lie algebra

GT12. Aut(Z/n) and Fermat's Little Theorem
Abstract Algebra: We show that Aut(Z/n) is isomorphic to (Z/n)*, the group of units in Z/n. In turn, we show that the units consist of all m in Z/n with gcd(m,n)=1. Using (Z/n)*, we define the Euler totient function and state and prove Fermat's Little Theorem: if p is a prime, then, for

Group Definition (expanded) - Abstract Algebra
The group is the most fundamental object you will study in abstract algebra. Groups generalize a wide variety of mathematical sets: the integers, symmetries of shapes, modular arithmetic, NxM matrices, and much more. After learning about groups in detail, you will then be ready to contin

Units in a Ring (Abstract Algebra)
The units in a ring are those elements which have an inverse under multiplication. They form a group, and this “group of units” is very important in algebraic number theory. Using units you can also define the idea of an “associate” which lets you generalize the fundamental theorem of ar
