Complete Group
In mathematics, a group G is said to be complete if every automorphism of G is inner, and the group is a centerless group; that is, it has a trivial outer automorphism group and trivial center. Equivalently, a group is complete if the conjugation map (sending an element g to conjugation by g) is an isomorphism: 1-to-1 corresponds to centerless, onto corresponds to no outer automorphisms.

Famous quotes containing the words complete and/or group:
“Although those notes, in conformity with custom, come after the poem, the reader is advised to consult them first and then study the poem with their help, rereading them of course as he goes through its text, and perhaps after having done with the poem consulting them a third time so as to complete the picture.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“If the Russians have gone too far in subjecting the child and his peer group to conformity to a single set of values imposed by the adult society, perhaps we have reached the point of diminishing returns in allowing excessive autonomy and in failing to utilize the constructive potential of the peer group in developing social responsibility and consideration for others.”
—Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
