More concepts to explore

  • Group representations

    A group representation is a homomorphism into invertible linear transformations.

  • Irreducible representations

    An irreducible representation has no nonzero proper invariant subspace.

  • Characters

    A finite-dimensional representation's character assigns the trace of each represented element.

  • Complete reducibility

    A representation is completely reducible when it is a direct sum of irreducible representations.

  • Induced representations

    A subgroup representation can be extended through an induction construction to the larger group.
