Group theory in discrete mathematics examples. The group i is an infinite group as the set i of integers is an infinite set. Other well known algebraic structures such as rings fields and vector spaces can all be seen as groups endowed with additional operations and axioms groups recur throughout mathematics and the methods of group theory have influenced many. A group for which the element pair a b g always holds commutative is known as abelian group g thus holding true five properties closure associative identity inverse and commutative. What is an abelian group in discrete mathematics.
The set of positive integers including zero with addition operation is an abelian group. A set gwith a associative binary operation is called a semigroup. The order of a group g is the number of elements in g and the order of an element in a group is the least positive integer n such that an is the identity element of that group g. Examples the set of n times n non singular matrices form a group under matrix multiplication operation.
The most important semigroups are groups. In mathematics and abstract algebra group theory studies the algebraic structures known as groups the concept of a group is central to abstract algebra. The order of the group g is the number of elements in the group g. Other examples of associative binary operations are matrix multiplication and function composition.
