$\langle x \rangle$ is the subgroup generated by $x$, which is the smallest subgroup of $G$ containing $x$. It is built by including $x$, its inverse $x^{-1}$, the identity $1$, and all integral powers of $x$ and $x^{-1}$ required for closure.

Conditions: $G$ is a group with operation $\times$.; $x \in G$.
