Primitive Groups, Part 1 (1921) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781437174076)

Primitive Groups, Part 1 is a mathematical treatise written by William Albert Manning and first published in 1921. The book is focused on the study of primitive groups, which are groups of symmetries that cannot be decomposed into smaller groups of symmetries. Manning presents a comprehensive overview of the theory of primitive groups, including their properties, classification, and applications. The book is divided into three main parts: the first part covers the basic concepts and definitions of group theory, the second part presents the theory of primitive groups, and the third part discusses the applications of primitive groups in geometry and other areas of mathematics. The book is aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students, as well as researchers in mathematics and related fields. It is written in a clear and concise style, with numerous examples and exercises to aid understanding. Primitive Groups, Part 1 is a seminal work in the field of group theory and remains a valuable resource for mathematicians today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
