  2. Opposite group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opposite_group

    g 1, g 2 denotes the ordered pair of the two group elements. *' can be viewed as the naturally induced addition of +. In group theory , a branch of mathematics , an opposite group is a way to construct a group from another group that allows one to define right action as a special case of left action .

  3. Group of Two - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_of_Two

    The Group of Two (G-2 or G2) is a hypothetical and an informal grouping made up of the United States of America and People's Republic of China that was first proposed by C. Fred Bergsten and subsequently others. [1] [2] While the original concept had a strong economic focus, more recent iterations have a more all-encompassing focus. [3]

  4. Size of groups, organizations, and communities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Size_of_groups...

    The number of possible person-to-person links (L) increases rapidly as the size of the group (N) increases (L = (N² - N) /2). In a four-member group there are six possible pairings; add a fifth member for each of the four to relate to and you have ten pairs. The number of possible two-person links in a group of twelve is 66.

  5. Isometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometry

    When the group is a continuous group, the infinitesimal generators of the group are the Killing vector fields. The Myers–Steenrod theorem states that every isometry between two connected Riemannian manifolds is smooth (differentiable). A second form of this theorem states that the isometry group of a Riemannian manifold is a Lie group.

  6. 2-group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-group

    In fact, 2-groups are classified in this way: given a group π 1, an abelian group π 2, a group action of π 1 on π 2, and an element of H 3 (π 1, π 2), there is a unique (up to equivalence) 2-group G with π 1 G isomorphic to π 1, π 2 G isomorphic to π 2, and the other data corresponding.

  7. Thesaurus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thesaurus

    A thesaurus (pl.: thesauri or thesauruses), sometimes called a synonym dictionary or dictionary of synonyms, is a reference work which arranges words by their meanings (or in simpler terms, a book where one can find different words with similar meanings to other words), [1] [2] sometimes as a hierarchy of broader and narrower terms, sometimes simply as lists of synonyms and antonyms.

  8. Yoneda lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoneda_lemma

    In mathematics, the Yoneda lemma is a fundamental result in category theory. [1] It is an abstract result on functors of the type morphisms into a fixed object.It is a vast generalisation of Cayley's theorem from group theory (viewing a group as a miniature category with just one object and only isomorphisms).

  9. Oxymoron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxymoron

    Listing of antonyms, such as "good and evil", "great and small", etc., does not create oxymorons, as it is not implied that any given object has the two opposing properties simultaneously. In some languages, it is not necessary to place a conjunction like and between the two antonyms; such compounds (not necessarily of antonyms) are known as ...
