  • We introduce cosets of subgroups in groups, these are wonderful little discrete math structures, and we'll see coset examples and several coset theorems in this video. If H is a subgroup of a group G, and a is an element of G, then Ha is the set of all products ha where a is fixed and h ranges over H. Ha is called a left coset of H in G, and the right coset aH is defined similarly. We will see finite cosets and infinite cosets. #abstractalgebra #grouptheory
    Cosets of a subgroup partition the whole group, and cosets with common elements are equal, we discuss both of these facts in this video, and we prove the latter fact. Our discussions of cosets will eventually lead to a proof of a famous result: Lagrange's Theorem.

      Thanks a lot for watching and the feedback! These concept overview lesson are the hardest to make, as it takes a lot of time to decide exactly what to cover in them. I just finished recording the follow up lesson proving that cosets partition groups, a great result!

    The result from abstract algebra that is most memorable to me is the shockingly easy proof that every group is isomorphic to a permutation group(operation composition)

  • @ThefamousMrcroissant
    @ThefamousMrcroissant Před rokem +5

    Very coherent. This is a great format for going over definitions. Since you clearly scripted it as well the video was pleasant to listen to (a lot of similar videos tend to "improvise" on the fly, but that doesn't work as neatly from my experience and is fairly error prone).
    Excellent video!

      Thanks so much! As I work on this series, I have tried to make these the highest quality abstract algebra videos available. I cannot match the production value of Socratica, but I hope I can make up for that in thoroughness. And especially for overview type videos such as this one, extensive preparation is required to make the lesson smooth and comprehensive. Thanks for watching!

      Thank you and good question! I had never considered making my actual writing from the videos available as a PDF or anything until the video I did recently solving all the 2023 AP Calc free response questions. I made that available for free on my Patreon page; and I might consider making all notes available for Patreon members - it takes some extra work to get it all cleaned up and ready to share as a PDF otherwise I'd have probably started doing it for all videos by now. If there is a particular video you'd like the notes from let me know and I can reply with a link, but it will be a project to start sharing them all.

  • @SuperTommox

    This could all be derived by the fact that the coset is a equivalence relation, right?

    • @WrathofMath
      @WrathofMath  Před 10 měsíci

      I'm not sure what you mean by "this all", since I don't remember everything I included - but probably!

  • @christopherrosson2400

    This was very clear and well done, but I'm still a little confused about the end and hoping someone can help me. You used the fact that Hb is a subgroup to apply associativety, but then stated that only one coset can be an actual group (because it's the only one with an identity). So my question is, how are you allowed to assume that Hb has associativety if it's arbitrary and may in fact be a coset that is not a subgroup?

    • @WrathofMath
      @WrathofMath  Před rokem

      Thanks for watching and good question! I didn't use the fact that Hb is a subgroup, since it may not be. I used the fact that the group operation is associative on all of its elements. We may narrow our focus to a subset of those elements which does not form a group (such as a coset) but the operation is still associative on all of those elements. Does that make sense?

    • @christopherrosson2400
      @christopherrosson2400 Před rokem

      @Wrath of Math Yes, it makes sense now. The cosets are subsets of the entire group, and properties like closure and associativety permeate throughout the entire group so they affect the subsets but the identity isn't an operation so it doesn't "move around". At least, that's what I'm taking away from it.

    • @WrathofMath
      @WrathofMath  Před rokem

      Right, the operation has certain properties with regards to the groups elements, and those properties remain whether we look at all the group elements,.or only some of them.

    • @christopherrosson2400
      @christopherrosson2400 Před rokem

      @Wrath of Math Awesome. One last question, and excuse me if this comes off nonsensical as I'm only just learning this stuff, but could I test for isomorphism of two groups by replacing one groups "identity coset" with the others and vice versa? I imagine if closure and associativety is assumed then showing the identities are interchangeable gives way to isomorphic groups?

    • @WrathofMath
      @WrathofMath  Před rokem

      I'm not positive I understand your question, but if I understand correctly the answer is no. For example, the reals are not isomorphic to the complex numbers under multiplication, yet they both have the rationals as an "identity coset". Thus this is an example of two groups with isomorphic identity cosets (even more, they are exactly equal cosets) yet the groups are not isomorphic.

  • @TheBrajesh1988
    @TheBrajesh1988 Před rokem

    G ={0, 1,2,3, +} is not a group because it is not closed as 2+3 = 5 but 5 is not an element of Z. Please explain.

    • @WrathofMath
      @WrathofMath  Před rokem

      The operation is not plain addition, it is addition modulo 4. So 2 + 3 is equal to its remainder when divided by 4, which is 1 since 5/4 has a remainder of 1. Similarly, 3+3 is 2 mod 4 because 3+3=6 divided by 4 has a remainder of 2.
