Affine braid group

In mathematics, an affine braid group is a braid group associated to an affine Coxeter system. Their group rings have quotients called affine Hecke algebras. They are subgroups of double affine braid groups. (Wikipedia).

Computational Aspects in the Braid Group and Applications to Cryptography - Mina Teicher

Mina Teicher Bar-Ilan University; Member, School of Mathematics March 12, 2012 The braid group on n strands may be viewed as an infinite analog of the symmetric group on n elements with additional topological phenomena. It appears in several areas of mathematics, physics and computer scien

Symmetric Groups (Abstract Algebra)

Symmetric groups are some of the most essential types of finite groups. A symmetric group is the group of permutations on a set. The group of permutations on a set of n-elements is denoted S_n. Symmetric groups capture the history of abstract algebra, provide a wide range of examples in

Cyclic Groups (Abstract Algebra)

Cyclic groups are the building blocks of abelian groups. There are finite and infinite cyclic groups. In this video we will define cyclic groups, give a list of all cyclic groups, talk about the name “cyclic,” and see why they are so essential in abstract algebra. Be sure to subscribe s

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

Dihedral Group (Abstract Algebra)

The Dihedral Group is a classic finite group from abstract algebra. It is a non abelian groups (non commutative), and it is the group of symmetries of a regular polygon. This group is easy to work with computationally, and provides a great example of one connection between groups and geo

Cyclic Groups, Generators, and Cyclic Subgroups | Abstract Algebra

We introduce cyclic groups, generators of cyclic groups, and cyclic subgroups. We discuss an isomorphism from finite cyclic groups to the integers mod n, as well as an isomorphism from infinite cyclic groups to the integers. We establish a cyclic group of order n is isomorphic to Zn, and a
