in this paper we first construct the non-split extension $overline{g}= 2^{6} {^{cdot}}sp(6,2)$ as a permutation group acting on 128 points. we then determine the conjugacy classes using the coset analysis technique, inertia factor groups and fischer matrices, which are required for the computations of the character table of $overline{g}$ by means of clifford-fischer theory. there are two inerti...

we present the basic results on the representation theory of the alternating groups. our approach is based on clifford theory.

Symmetry has sung its siren song to Physicists since the beginning of time, or at least since before there were Physicists. Today the ideas of symmetry are incorporated into a subject with the less imaginative and suggestive name of Group Theory. This Chapter introduces many of the ideas of group theory that are important in the natural sciences. Natural philosophers in the past have come up wi...

The first version of these notes was written for a first-year graduate algebra course. As in most such courses, the notes concentrated on abstract groups and, in particular, on finite groups. However, it is not as abstract groups that most mathematicians encounter groups, but rather as algebraic groups, topological groups, or Lie groups, and it is not just the groups themselves that are of inte...

The notion of modular arithmetic is related to that of the remainder in Euclidean division. The operation of finding the remainder is sometimes referred to as the modulo operation, and denoted with ”mod” used as an infix operator. For example, the remainder of the division of 16 by 12 is denoted by 16 mod 12; as this remainder is 4, we have 16 mod 12 = 4. The congruence, indicated by ”≡” follow...
