MATH 354 — Abstract Algebra I-Prerequisite MATH 224
Mathematics · University of Ghana
The primary aim of Math 354 is to study groups and their properties. We shall develop the foundations of group theory and study some notable groups like cyclic groups, permutation groups, finite Abelian groups and their characterization. Other ideas include: subgroups, cyclic groups.The Stabilizer-Orbit theorem. Lagrange's theorem. Classifying groups. Structural properties of a group. Cayley's theorem. Generating sets. Direct products. Finite abelian groups. Cosets and the proof of Lagrange's theorem. Proof of the Stabilizer-Orbit theorem.
