Group theory serves as a fundamental language for describing symmetry in both mathematics and physics. Finite groups, defined by their limited number of elements, are central to modern algebra and ...

You may be tempted to organize your small business according to a traditional hierarchical structure. This structure starts at the top with a boss who passes authority down through managers to ...

Research in group theory has long embraced equations as a means to elucidate the structure and behaviour of groups. In particular, Diophantine problems—those surrounding the existence and ...

In this course we will consider the structure of (infinite) groups. For this, we will study actions of groups on interesting topological and metric spaces. The geometry of these spaces can be used to ...

Groups of line managers and supervisors in two organizations having different organizational structures were compared. As was hypothesized, relationships among the members of the groups in the more ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. In 2003, a German graduate student named Britta Späth encountered the McKay conjecture, one of the biggest open problems in the ...

The aim of the seminar is to understand the structure and theory of the isometry groups of CAT(0)-spaces and their lattices. The papers on discrete subgroups and structure theory by Caprace and Monod ...

Traditional approaches to theory structure and theory change in science do not fare well when confronted with the practice of certain fields of science. We offer an account of contemporary practice in ...
