چکیده
English mathematician Arthur Cayley (August 16, 1821 – January 26, 1895), one of the greatest and most prolific mathematicians, helped found the British school of pure mathematics. He was one of the first to realize how many different areas of mathematics could be drawn together by the theory of groups. Together with James Joseph Sylvester, Cayley established the theory of algebraic invariants, a concept important in modern physics, particularly in relativity theory. Cayley blazed the trail for Felix Klein’s discovery that Euclidean geometry along with the non-Euclidean geometries of Lobachevsky and Riemann were only aspects of a more general kind of geometry, including them as special cases.

Stably Cayley Groups in Characteristic
A linear algebraic group G over a field k is called a Cayley group if it admits a Cayley map, i.e., a G-equivariant birational isomorphism over k between the group variety G and its Lie algebra. A Cayley map can be thought of as a partial algebraic analogue of the exponential map. A prototypical example is the classical “Cayley transform” for the special orthogonal group SOn defined by Arthur C...
متن کاملArthur Cayley and the First Paper on Group Theory
Arthur Cayleys 1854 paper On the theory of groups, as depending on the symbolic equation n = 1 inaugurated the abstract idea of a group [2]. I have used this very understandable paper several times for reading, discussion, and homework in teaching introductory abstract algebra, where students are rst introduced to group theory. Many facets of this short paper provide wonderful pedagogical ben...
متن کاملOn the eigenvalues of normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs
A graph $Gamma$ is said to be vertex-transitive or edge- transitive if the automorphism group of $Gamma$ acts transitively on $V(Gamma)$ or $E(Gamma)$, respectively. Let $Gamma=Cay(G,S)$ be a Cayley graph on $G$ relative to $S$. Then, $Gamma$ is said to be normal edge-transitive, if $N_{Aut(Gamma)}(G)$ acts transitively on edges. In this paper, the eigenvalues of normal edge-tra...
متن کاملFinite groups admitting a connected cubic integral bi-Cayley graph
A graph is called integral if all eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix are integers. Given a subset $S$ of a finite group $G$, the bi-Cayley graph $BCay(G,S)$ is a graph with vertex set $Gtimes{1,2}$ and edge set ${{(x,1),(sx,2)}mid sin S, xin G}$. In this paper, we classify all finite groups admitting a connected cubic integral bi-Cayley graph.
متن کاملCayley-Dixon projection operator for multi-univariate composed polynomials
The Cayley-Dixon formulation for multivariate projection operators (multiples of resultants of multivariate polynomials) has been shown to be efficient (both experimentally and theoretically) for simultaneously eliminating many variables from a polynomial system. In this paper, the behavior of the Cayley-Dixon projection operator and the structure of Dixon matrices are analyzed for composed pol...
