Hall's universal group

Index Hall's universal group

In algebra, Hall's universal group is a countable locally finite group, say U, which is uniquely characterized by the following properties. [1]

9 relations: Algebra, Cayley's theorem, Direct limit, Inner automorphism, Locally finite group, Monomorphism, Permutation, Philip Hall, Symmetric group.

Algebra

Algebra (from Arabic "al-jabr", literally meaning "reunion of broken parts") is one of the broad parts of mathematics, together with number theory, geometry and analysis.

Cayley's theorem

In group theory, Cayley's theorem, named in honour of Arthur Cayley, states that every group G is isomorphic to a subgroup of the symmetric group acting on G. This can be understood as an example of the group action of G on the elements of G. A permutation of a set G is any bijective function taking G onto G; and the set of all such functions forms a group under function composition, called the symmetric group on G, and written as Sym(G).

Direct limit

In mathematics, a direct limit is a way to construct a (typically large) object from many (typically smaller) objects that are put together in a specific way.

Inner automorphism

In abstract algebra an inner automorphism is an automorphism of a group, ring, or algebra given by the conjugation action of a fixed element, called the conjugating element.

Locally finite group

In mathematics, in the field of group theory, a locally finite group is a type of group that can be studied in ways analogous to a finite group.

Monomorphism

In the context of abstract algebra or universal algebra, a monomorphism is an injective homomorphism.

Permutation

In mathematics, the notion of permutation relates to the act of arranging all the members of a set into some sequence or order, or if the set is already ordered, rearranging (reordering) its elements, a process called permuting.

Philip Hall

Philip Hall FRS (11 April 1904 – 30 December 1982), was an English mathematician.

Symmetric group

In abstract algebra, the symmetric group defined over any set is the group whose elements are all the bijections from the set to itself, and whose group operation is the composition of functions.
