Earlier, Alfred Tarski proved elementary group theory undecidable. [31] The period of 1960-1980 was one of excitement in many areas of group theory. In finite groups, there were many independent milestones. One had the discovery of 22 new sporadic groups, and the completion of the first generation of the classification of finite simple groups.
Group theory has three main historical sources: number theory, the theory of algebraic equations, and geometry.The number-theoretic strand was begun by Leonhard Euler, and developed by Gauss's work on modular arithmetic and additive and multiplicative groups related to quadratic fields.
Friendster was a social networking service originally based in Mountain View, California, founded by Jonathan Abrams and launched in March 2003. [2] [3] Before Friendster was redesigned, the service allowed users to contact other members, maintain those contacts, and share online content and media with those contacts. [4]

The minimal degree of a faithful complex representation is 47 × 59 × 71 = 196,883, hence is the product of the three largest prime divisors of the order of M. The smallest faithful linear representation over any field has dimension 196,882 over the field with two elements, only one less than the dimension of the smallest faithful complex representation.
[7] [17] Tajfel instead developed social identity theory's motivational explanation. In social identity theory, people are thought to award more points to their own group than to the out-group in the minimal group paradigm because, in those circumstances, in-group favoritism is the only way in which to achieve positive distinctiveness.
The group consisting of all permutations of a set M is the symmetric group of M. p-group If p is a prime number, then a p-group is one in which the order of every element is a power of p. A finite group is a p-group if and only if the order of the group is a power of p. p-subgroup A subgroup that is also a p-group.
A map of several branches and degrees of a small social group: Ryan is six degrees of separation from Pablo. Six degrees of separation is the idea that all people are six or fewer social connections away from each other. As a result, a chain of "friend of a friend" statements can be made to connect any two people in a maximum of six steps.
