Orbits of Group Actions - Mathematics Stack Exchange
2019年10月22日 · The notion of (abstract) group action arises as soon as you move from the original notion of "group" as group of permutations (which natively fulfills the conditions $\iota(s)=s, \forall s\in S$, and $\sigma(\tau(s))=(\sigma\tau)(s),\forall s\in S, \forall \sigma,\tau\in \operatorname{Sym}(S)$) to the one of abstract group.
Transitive group action - Mathematics Stack Exchange
2015年9月6日 · Orbits of the group are precisely sets of points that you can reach with your group action from some starting point. Hence transitivity means that there is only one orbit. For example if you consider group of rotations with respect to fixed point acting on Euclidean space, orbits are just spheres of constant radius with respect to that point.
Group action defines a group homomorphism and vice versa.

abstract algebra - What is conjugate in group theory?
2016年10月17日 · For an abelian group we just get a string of ones. Functions that are constant on conjugacy classes are called class functions. As an example there's characters. They were important in Feit-Thompson's theorem, leading to the classification of finite simple groups. One of the most basic types of group action is conjugation by an element of the ...

Group theory book: presentations and group actions
2015年1月14日 · On the other hand, I am a big fan of Chapter 1 of the book "Combinatorial group theory" by Magnus, Karrass and Solitar (£9.99, second hand, amazon.co.uk). It is, perhaps, the ultimate in introductions to presentations. It is also one of the classic texts in geometric and combinatorial group theory. $\endgroup$ –
