Complete Group

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:

    I am black: I am the incarnation of a complete fusion with the world, an intuitive understanding of the earth, an abandonment of my ego in the heart of the cosmos, and no white man, no matter how intelligent he may be, can ever understand Louis Armstrong and the music of the Congo.
    Frantz Fanon (1925–1961)

    Remember that the peer group is important to young adolescents, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Parents are often just as important, however. Don’t give up on the idea that you can make a difference.
    —The Lions Clubs International and the Quest Nation. The Surprising Years, I, ch.5 (1985)
