Geometric group theory | Discrete groups
In mathematics, specifically geometric group theory, a geometric group action is a certain type of action of a discrete group on a metric space. (Wikipedia).
Group actions in abstract algebra
In this first video on group actions, I use an example of some previous work on the symmetric group to give you some intuition about group actions. Beware when reading your textbook. It is probably unnecessary difficult just due to the dot notation that is used when describing group acti

Abstract Algebra: Group actions are defined as a formal mechanism that describes symmetries of a set X. A given group action defines an equivalence relation, which in turn yields a partition of X into orbits. Orbits are also described as cosets of the group. U.Reddit course materials a

In this video I demonstrate an example of a non-faithful group actions, where the identity permutation is actually mapped to by all the elements in the group set. Another example shows you how group actions involving a group set on itself gives rise to group element composition as we see

Geometric Algebra - The Matrix Representation of a Linear Transformation
In this video, we will show how matrices as computational tools may conveniently represent the action of a linear transformation upon a given basis. We will prove that conventional matrix operations, particularly matrix multiplication, conform to the composition of linear transformations.

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 5.1: Groups acting on sets
Visual Group Theory, Lecture 5.1: Groups acting on sets When we first learned about groups as collections of actions, there was a subtle but important difference between actions and configurations. This is the tip of the iceberg of a more general and powerful concept of a group action. Ma

Definition of a group Lesson 24
In this video we take our first look at the definition of a group. It is basically a set of elements and the operation defined on them. If this set of elements and the operation defined on them obey the properties of closure and associativity, and if one of the elements is the identity el

What is a Group Action? : A Group as a Category and The Skeleton Operation ☠
This week I try to take a more Categorical approach to answering and expanding upon the question of "what is a group action". Along the way I'll go over thinking about a group as a category and eventually hit on the skeleton operation on a category and use it to present an example of the c

Group action proofs in abstract algebra
This video follows from the previous one, in which we developed an intuitive understanding of group actions by way of an example. In this video I want to spend a few minutes on the proofs that connect the elements in a group set with the permutations of another set.

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 5.3: Examples of group actions
Visual Group Theory, Lecture 5.3: Examples of group actions It is frequently of interest to analyze the action of a group on its elements (by multiplication), subgroups (by multiplication, or by conjugation), or cosets (by multiplication). We look at all of these, and analyze the orbits,

Victoria Hoskins: Group actions on quiver moduli spaces and applications
Abstract: We study two types of actions on King’s moduli spaces of quiver representations over a field k, and we decompose their fixed loci using group cohomology in order to give modular interpretations of the components. The first type of action arises by considering finite groups of qui
