An abelian group is a set, together with an operation ･ , that combines any two elements and of to form another element of , denoted .The symbol ･ is a general placeholder for a concretely given operation.
Order p 2: There are just two groups, both abelian. Order p 3: There are three abelian groups, and two non-abelian groups. One of the non-abelian groups is the semidirect product of a normal cyclic subgroup of order p 2 by a cyclic group of order p. The other is the quaternion group for p = 2 and a group of exponent p for p > 2.

Abelians (Latin: Abelonii; also Abelites, [1] Abeloites or Abelonians) were a Christian sect that emerged in the 4th century in the countryside near Hippo Regius in north Africa during the reign of Arcadius.
The largest denomination is the Catholic Church with more than 1.3 billion members. [23] The smallest of these groups may have only a few dozen adherents or an unspecified number of participants in independent churches as described below. As such, specific numbers and a certain size may not define a group as a denomination.
Dedekind and Baer have shown (in the finite and respectively infinite order case) that every Hamiltonian group is a direct product of the form G = Q 8 × B × D, where B is an elementary abelian 2-group, and D is a torsion abelian group with all elements of odd order. Dedekind groups are named after Richard Dedekind, who investigated them in ...
For example, there are four non-isomorphic groups of order 16 that are semidirect products of C 8 and C 2; in this case, C 8 is necessarily a normal subgroup because it has index 2. One of these four semidirect products is the direct product, while the other three are non-abelian groups: the dihedral group of order 16; the quasidihedral group ...
The Cayley table tells us whether a group is abelian. Because the group operation of an abelian group is commutative, a group is abelian if and only if its Cayley table's values are symmetric along its diagonal axis. The group {1, −1} above and the cyclic group of order 3 under ordinary multiplication are both examples of abelian groups, and ...
