Abelian 2-group

In mathematics, an Abelian 2-group is a higher dimensional analogue of an Abelian group, in the sense of higher algebra, which were originally introduced by Alexander Grothendieck while studying abstract structures surrounding Abelian varieties and Picard groups. More concretely, they are given by groupoids which have a bifunctor which acts formally like the addition an Abelian group. Namely, the bifunctor has a notion of commutativity, associativity, and an identity structure. Although this seems like a rather lofty and abstract structure, there are several (very concrete) examples of Abelian 2-groups. In fact, some of which provide prototypes for more complex examples of higher algebraic structures, such as Abelian n-groups. (Wikipedia).

Every Group of Order Five or Smaller is Abelian Proof

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.

Groups and subgroups

Jacob explains the fundamental concepts in group theory of what groups and subgroups are, and highlights a few examples of groups you may already know. Abelian groups are named in honor of Niels Henrik Abel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_Henrik_Abel), who pioneered the subject of

Representation theory: Abelian groups

This lecture discusses the complex representations of finite abelian groups. We show that any group is iomorphic to its dual (the group of 1-dimensional representations, and isomorphic to its double dual in a canonical way (Pontryagin duality). We check the orthogonality relations for the

Abstract Algebra - 11.1 Fundamental Theorem of Finite Abelian Groups

We complete our study of Abstract Algebra in the topic of groups by studying the Fundamental Theorem of Finite Abelian Groups. This tells us that every finite abelian group is a direct product of cyclic groups of prime-power order. Video Chapters: Intro 0:00 Before the Fundamental Theorem

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 4.4: Finitely generated abelian groups We begin this lecture by proving that the cyclic group of order n*m is isomorphic to the direct product of cyclic groups of order n and m if and only if gcd(n,m)=1. Then, we classify all finite abelian groups by decomposi

Normal subgroups

Before we carry on with our coset journey, we need to discover when the left- and right cosets are equal to each other. The obvious situation is when our group is Abelian. The other situation is when the subgroup is a normal subgroup. In this video I show you what a normal subgroup is a

The successful approach to solving Fermat's problem reflects a move in number theory from abelian to non-abelian arithmetic. This lecture was held by Abel Laurate Sir Andrew Wiles at The University of Oslo, May 25, 2016 and was part of the Abel Prize Lectures in connection with the Abel P

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 2.1: Cyclic and abelian groups In this lecture, we introduce two important families of groups: (1) "cyclic groups", which are those that can be generated by a single element, and (2) "abelian groups", which are those for which multiplication commutes. Addition

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
