Wall Polynomial
In mathematics, a Wall polynomial is a polynomial studied by in his work on conjugacy classes in classical group In mathematics, the classical groups are defined as the special linear groups over the reals \mathbb, the complex numbers \mathbb and the quaternions \mathbb together with special automorphism groups of Bilinear form#Symmetric, skew-symmetric an ...s, and named by .

Conjugacy Class
In mathematics, especially group theory, two elements a and b of a group are conjugate if there is an element g in the group such that b = gag^. This is an equivalence relation whose equivalence classes are called conjugacy classes. In other words, each conjugacy class is closed under b = gag^ for all elements g in the group. Members of the same conjugacy class cannot be distinguished by using only the group structure, and therefore share many properties. The study of conjugacy classes of non-abelian groups is fundamental for the study of their structure. For an abelian group, each conjugacy class is a set containing one element ( singleton set). Functions that are constant for members of the same conjugacy class are called class functions. Definition Let G be a group. Two elements a, b \in G are conjugate if there exists an element g \in G such that gag^ = b, in which case b is called of a and a is called a conjugate of b. In the case of the general linear group \op ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Classical Group
In mathematics, the classical groups are defined as the special linear groups over the reals \mathbb, the complex numbers \mathbb and the quaternions \mathbb together with special automorphism groups of Bilinear form#Symmetric, skew-symmetric and alternating forms, symmetric or Bilinear form#Symmetric, skew-symmetric and alternating forms, skew-symmetric bilinear forms and Sesquilinear form#Hermitian form, Hermitian or Sesquilinear form#Skew-Hermitian form, skew-Hermitian sesquilinear forms defined on real, complex and quaternionic finite-dimensional vector spaces. Of these, the complex classical Lie groups are four infinite families of Lie groups that together with the Simple_Lie_group#Exceptional_cases, exceptional groups exhaust the classification of simple Lie groups. The compact classical groups are compact real forms of the complex classical groups. The finite analogues of the classical groups are the classical groups of Lie type. The term "classical group" was coined by Her ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
