1 Associativity A property of operations. An operation * is called associative if: a * (b * c) = (a * b) * c for every possible a, b, and c. Axiom For Greek geometry, an axiom was a 'self-evident truth'. Axioms acted as the foundation from which all true statements should be deduced. In modern mathematics, an axiom is a property or feature used as part of a definition. Groups are defined by axioms. Deductions from these axioms lead to true statements about all groups. Cancellativity A property of operations. An operation * is called cancellative if: only when a = b for every possible a, band c. Cayley table The 'multiplication table' of a group operation is called its Cayley table. Cayley tables are Latin squares. However, not every Latin square represents the Cayley table of a group. Classification A classification of groups is a logical scheme capable, in principle, of identifying all possible groups. The approach to classification taken in this book is to identify groups, as far as possible, according to the number of elements that they contain. Colouring and colouring type When marking a geometric object according to certain rules (e.g. painting the six faces of a cube black or white), a colouring is a particular way of performing the marking with the object fixed. For example, a cube with the top face black and all others white is a colouring. A colouring type is a collection of colourings obtained from any particular colouring by rotating the object. For example, the six colourings of the cube which has one black face and five white faces form a single colouring type. Commutativity A property of operations. An operation* is called commutative if: for every possible a and b. Composition Composition is an operation on transformations (permutations, symmetries, etc), usually denoted by the symbol 0 The composition X o Y of two 124
2 transformations X and Y is the action of doing X first, then doing Y. Composition is automatically associative: X o (Yo Z) means doing X, then doing Y followed by Z, while (X o Y) o Z means doing X followed by Y, then doing Z. Cyclic group A group which consists entirely of the positive and negative powers of a single element is called a cyclic group. Generators A set of some elements of a group, from which all elements can be obtained by taking products and inverses, is called a generating set for the group. If a group has a single element which generates the group on its own, the group is cyclic. Group A group is any mathematical structure which satisfies the group axioms: (1) There is a set of objects (called the group elements). (2) There is an operation on these objects. (3) The operation is associative. (4) There is an identity element for the operation. (5) Each element has an inverse for the operation. Identity Where a mathematical structure involves an operation * on its elements, one of the elements (often called e) may have the property that: for every x. Such an element is called an identity element. For instance, 0 is an identity for addition in the integers. The possession of an identity is one of the defining features of a group. In groups, the identity is unique. Where the operation is composition (on a set of transformations), the identity is the transformation which leaves everything where it started. Integers The integers are the whole numbers:... '-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3,... The system of integers is denoted l. This system, with the operation of addition, forms a group. It is a semigroup, but not a group, with the operation of multiplication. Inverse Where a mathematical structure involves an operation * on its elements, it may have an identity e. If it does, and two elements a and bare such that: then b is called an inverse for a (and a is also an inverse for b). For instance, -2 is an inverse for 2 in the integers with addition. The possession of inverses for all elements is one of the defining features of a group. In groups, the inverse of each element is unique. Isometry An isometry is a non-distorting transformation of a geometrical object. In two dimensions, in addition to the identity transformations, there are three kinds of isometry: rotations, reflections and translations. Isomorphism An isomorphism is a one-to-one correspondence between the elements of two groups, which is capable of 'translating' the Cayley table of one into the Cayley table of the other. For instance, one isomorphism between the groups l 2 and z: (see Modulo) is the correspondence: 125
3 which interconverts the two tables: fo ++ 1 \ and If there is an isomorphism between two groups, they are called isomorphic; as far as group theory is concerned, they are then practically equal. Latin square A Latin square is an n x n table in which each of n elements appears exactly once in each column and exactly once in each row. The Cayley table of a group is always a Latin square. Matrices A matrix is a rectangular array, often of real numbers. The system of all n-by-n real matrices is called Mn(IR). It is a group with the operation of matrix addition. It is a semi group, but not a group, with the operation of matrix multiplication. The system of all invertible n-by-n matrices, denoted GLn(IR), is a group under matrix multiplication. Modulo The integers modulo n are the whole numbers: 0, 1, 2, 3,..., n - 1 The system of integers modulo n is denoted ln. This system forms a group with the operation of addition modulo n: a +n b = { a+ a+ b- b n (if a + b < n) (if a + b ;;::. n) It is a semigroup, but not a group, under the operation of multiplication modulo n: a xn b = lab ab- n ab ~ 2n (if ab < n) (if n ::::;;; ab < 2n) (if 2n ::::;;; ab < 3n) The system of non-zero integers modulo n is denoted l.~. This system is a group under multiplication modulo n when n is prime (and only then). Natural numbers The natural numbers are the non-negative whole numbers: 0, 1, 2, 3,... ' The system of natural numbers is denoted 1'\1. This system, with the operation of addition, forms a semigroup but not a group. It is also a semigroup, but not a group, with the operation of multiplication. Operation An operation is a way of combining any two members of a set of objects to result in a third member. For example, subtraction is an operation on the set of integers but not on the set of natural numbers - because combinations like 2-5 do not represent a natural number. Permutations A permutation is a rearrangement of a set of positioned objects. A 126
4 permutation can be represented by noting the destination point of each object. For I th. ( ) h b examp e, e permutation moves t eo Ject m pos1t10n to pos1t1on, that at position 2 remains at position 2, and that at position 3 moves to position 1. The set of permutations of {1, 2,..., n} is denoted sn. This is a group with the operation of composition. Platonic solids There are five solids whose faces are identical regular polygons and in which each vertex is the junction of the same number of faces. These are the Platonic solids: the regular tetrahedron (equilateral triangles, three to a vertex); the cube (squares, three to a vertex); the regular octahedron (equilateral triangles, four to a vertex); the regular dodecahedron (regular pentagons, three to a vertex); the regular icosahedron (equilateral triangles, five to a vertex). Rational numbers The rational number system is the set of fractions min (with m and n integers and n =I= 0). This system is denoted 0. With the operation of addition, it forms a group. It is a semigroup, but not a group, with the operation of multiplication. The system consisting of all rationals apart from zero is denoted by 0*. This is a group under multiplication but not even a semigroup under addition. Real numbers The real number system is the set of infinite decimals, m a 1a 2a 3a 4 This system is denoted lit With the operation of addition, it forms a group. It is a semigroup, but not a group, with the operation of multiplication. The system consisting of all reals apart from zero is denoted by R *. It is a group under multiplication but not even a semigroup under addition. Semigroup A semigroup is any mathematical structure which satisfies the semigroup axioms: (1) There is a set of objects (called semigroup elements). (2) There is an operation on these objects. (3) The operation is associative. A group is automatically a semigroup. However, some semigroups are not groups (such as the natural numbers with the operation of addition). Subgroup Within a group, it sometimes happens that a subset of elements also forms a group under the same group operation. If this is the case, this subset is called a subgroup. For example, the set of even integers:..., -4, -2, 0, 2, 4,..., forms a subgroup of the group of integers under addition. Symmetry An isometry is said to be a symmetry of a particular geometrical object if the object appears unchanged by the transformation. The set of symmetries of an object X is denoted Sym(X). It is a group with the operation of composition. Rot(X) is the set of all symmetries of X which are rotations. It is a subgroup of Sym(X). Tiling A tiling is any figure in the plane consisting of joined straight-line segments. This includes simple polygons, but also includes infinite figures. The symmetry group of a regular infinite tiling can include translations, and can itself be infinite. Crystallography is the study of three-dimensional 'tilings'.
5 Trivial group A group with only one element is said to be trivial. The one element is necessarily the identity. Vectors A vector is an ordered collection, often of real numbers. The system of all real vectors of length n is called IRn. It is a group with the operation of vector addition. It is not a semigroup with the operation of vector product. 128
