Disquisitiones Arithmeticae

The Disquisitiones Arithmeticae (Latin for "Arithmetical Investigations") is a textbook of number theory written in Latin by Carl Friedrich Gauss in 1798 when Gauss was 21 and first published in 1801 when he was 24. It is notable for having had a revolutionary impact on the field of number theory as it not only made the field truly rigorous and systematic but also paved the path for modern number theory. In this book Gauss brought together and reconciled results in number theory obtained by mathematicians such as Fermat, Euler, Lagrange, and Legendre and added many profound and original results of his own.

Normal Subgroups and Quotient Groups (aka Factor Groups) - Abstract Algebra

Normal subgroups are a powerful tool for creating factor groups (also called quotient groups). In this video we introduce the concept of a coset, talk about which subgroups are “normal” subgroups, and show when the collection of cosets can be treated as a group of their own. As a motivat

Dihedral group example

In this veideo we continue our look in to the dihedral groups, specifically, the dihedral group with six elements. We note that two of the permutation in the group are special in that they commute with all the other elements in the group. In the next video I'll show you that these two el

Divisibility, Prime Numbers, and Prime Factorization

Now that we understand division, we can talk about divisibility. A number is divisible by another if their quotient is a whole number. The smaller number is a factor of the larger one, but are there numbers with no factors at all? There's some pretty surprising stuff in this one! Watch th
