Automorphism

In mathematics, an automorphism is an isomorphism from a mathematical object to itself. It is, in some sense, a symmetry of the object, and a way of mapping the object to itself while preserving all of its structure. The set of all automorphisms of an object forms a group, called the automorphism group. It is, loosely speaking, the symmetry group of the object. (Wikipedia).

Group automorphisms in abstract algebra

Group automorphisms are bijective mappings of a group onto itself. In this tutorial I define group automorphisms and introduce the fact that a set of such automorphisms can exist. This set is proven to be a subgroup of the symmetric group. You can learn more about Mathematica on my Udem

Abstract Algebra - 6.5 Automorphisms

We finish up chapter 6 by discussion automorphisms and inner automorphisms. An automorphism is just a special isomorphism that maps a group to itself. An inner-automorphism uses conjugation of an element and its inverse to create a mapping. Video Chapters: Intro 0:00 What is an Automorphi

Homomorphisms in abstract algebra

In this video we add some more definition to our toolbox before we go any further in our study into group theory and abstract algebra. The definition at hand is the homomorphism. A homomorphism is a function that maps the elements for one group to another whilst maintaining their structu

Graph Theory FAQs: 02. Graph Automorphisms

An automorphism of a graph G is an isomorphism between G and itself. The set of automorphisms of a graph forms a group under the operation of composition and is denoted Aut(G). The automorphisms of a graph describe the symmetries of the graph. We look at a few examples of graphs and det

Isomorphisms in abstract algebra

In this video I take a look at an example of a homomorphism that is both onto and one-to-one, i.e both surjective and injection, which makes it a bijection. Such a homomorphism is termed an isomorphism. Through the example, I review the construction of Cayley's tables for integers mod 4

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 6.2: Field automorphisms

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 6.2: Field automorphisms A field automorphism is a structure preserving map from a field F to itself. This means that it must be both a homomorphism of both the addtive group (F,+) and the multiplicative group (F-{0},*). We show that any automorphism of an ext

Isomorphisms (Abstract Algebra)

An isomorphism is a homomorphism that is also a bijection. If there is an isomorphism between two groups G and H, then they are equivalent and we say they are "isomorphic." The groups may look different from each other, but their group properties will be the same. Be sure to subscribe s

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Galois theory. We show that the Frobenius automorphism of a finite field an sometimes be lifted to characteristic 0. As an example we use the Frobenius automorphisms of Q[i] to prove that -1 i a square mod an odd prime p if and only if

The JSJ (for groups) was originally constructed to study the automorphisms and the cyclic splittings of a (torsion-free) hyperbolic group. Such a structure theory was needed to complete the solution of the isomorphism problem for (torsion-free) hyperbolic groups. Later, the JSJ was genera

Homomorphisms in abstract algebra examples

Yesterday we took a look at the definition of a homomorphism. In today's lecture I want to show you a couple of example of homomorphisms. One example gives us a group, but I take the time to prove that it is a group just to remind ourselves of the properties of a group. In this video th
