Coset — In mathematics, if G is a group, and H is a subgroup of G, and g is an element of G, then gH = {gh : h an element of H } is a left coset of H in G, and Hg = {hg : h an element of H } is a right coset of H in G. Only when H is normal… … Wikipedia

Double coset — In mathematics, an (H,K) double coset in G, where G is a group and H and K are subgroups of G, is an equivalence class for the equivalence relation defined on G by x y if there are h in H and k in K with hxk = y. Then each double coset is of form … Wikipedia
Coherent states in mathematical physics — Coherent states have been introduced in a physical context, first as quasi classical states in quantum mechanics, then as the backbone of quantum optics and they are described in that spirit in the article Coherent states (see also [1]). However … Wikipedia
Quotient group — In mathematics, given a group G and a normal subgroup N of G , the quotient group, or factor group, of G over N is intuitively a group that collapses the normal subgroup N to the identity element. The quotient group is written G / N and is… … Wikipedia
Klein geometry — In mathematics, a Klein geometry is a type of geometry motivated by Felix Klein in his influential Erlangen program. More specifically, it is a homogeneous space X together with a transitive action on X by a Lie group G , which acts as the… … Wikipedia
Elementary group theory — In mathematics, a group is defined as a set G and a binary operation on G , called product and denoted by infix * . Product obeys the following rules (also called axioms). Let a , b , and c be arbitrary elements of G . Then: *A1, Closure. a * b… … Wikipedia
