  1. Groups, Fields, and Galois: Part 1 | UCLA Extension

    Dr. Michael Miller, a retired researcher at RAND, has been teaching upper level undergraduate/graduate level math courses for fun at UCLA Extension for over 50 years. This fall he'll be introducing the areas of groups, fields, and Galois theory from abstract algebra to those interested in abstract math: Groups, Fields, and Galois: Part 1. His intention is to do a follow-on class on Galois theory in the Winter which will use this class as a foundation. If you're in the Los Angeles area his […]

  4. #Mathematics #GroupTheory #Algebra #TheoreticalComputerScience

    In my study (a while ago) I learned about Σ Algebras (theoretical computer science).
    Then later, I learnt in math there are σ Algebras, which seems sort of the same thing.
    Today I'm curious about group theory, and groups are also sort of the same thing.

    Can anyone tell me what's the difference? Between Σ Algebras, σ Algebras, and groups?

    There's a deep mathematical significance I see in the following structures, and I'm hoping one day to find a way to explain all the things I see there. Meanwhile, you may take them as an amusing diversion in recreational maths.

    \( \text{Let} ~ p_n = \text{the} ~ n^\text{th} ~ \text{prime}. \)

    \( \begin{array}{llcl}
    \text{Then} & 2026 & = & 2 \cdot 1013
    \\
    && = & p_1 p_{170}
    \\
    && = & p_1 p_{2 \cdot 5 \cdot 17}
    \\
    && = & p_1 p_{p_1 p_3 p_7}
    \\
    && = & p_1 p_{p_1 p_{p_2} p_{p_4}}
    \\
    && = & p_1 p_{p_1 p_{p_{p_1}} p_{p_{{p_1}^{p_1}}}}
    \end{array} \)

    No information is lost by dropping the terminal 1s. Thus we may write the following form.

    \[ 2026 = p p_{p p_{p_p} p_{p_{p^p}}} \]

    The article linked below tells how forms of that order correspond to a family of digraphs called “riffs” and a family of graphs called “rotes”.

    The riff and rote for 2026 are shown in the next two Figures.

  6. A section of a group G is a quotient of a subgroup, viz. K normal in H subgroup of G, the section is H/K.

    Does anyone know if there is a more-or-less standard terminology not just for the section-up-to-isomorphism-of-the-group-H/K, but for the "instantiated" or maybe "concrete" section, e.g. the pair (K,H)?

  8. Some time ago for practicing #haskell I implemented a well know algorithm for combining multiplets github.com/mdrslmr/MultipletCo . This algorithm from #grouptheory is used in #particlephysics and other #physics topics. The code is probably pretty useless since the results are anyway textbook standards. But I found it was a nice exercise. I'm sure the code can be improved a lot easily.

  9. Why are normal subgroups called "normal?" Most subgroups are not normal, which seemingly makes the name incorrect.

    But in an Abelian group, all subgroups are normal. Abelian groups were the first groups to be studied by white European men, and they are the easiest for humans to work with.

    Therefore, normal subgroups are called normal because they are the subgroups which pose the least challenge to the incumbent power structures.

  12. Me: If you're a student in my class you will do group presentations, meaning that you will organize into a subset of the class, stand in front of the room, and talk about math to the rest of the class.

    Also me: Let's talk about group presentations, a completely abstract algebraic concept that have absolutely nothing to do with standing in front of the room talking about your work.

    Also also me: Okay, time for group presentations
    about group presentations.
