Summary of Group Operations
With x, y, and z different blocks R, G, and B we have:
- (xyz)(xyz)=(xzy)
- (xyz)(xzy)=
- (xyz)(xy)=(xz)
- (xy)(xyz)=(yz)
- (xy)(xy)=
- (xy)(xz)=(xzy)
In the form of a Cayley table:
| * | e | a | b | c | d | f |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| e | e | a | b | c | d | f |
| a | a | e | d | f | b | c |
| b | b | f | e | d | c | a |
| c | c | d | f | e | a | b |
| d | d | c | a | b | f | e |
| f | f | b | c | a | e | d |
Note that non-equal non-identity elements only commute if they are each other's inverse. Therefore the group is centerless.

Famous quotes containing the words summary, group and/or operations:
“Product of a myriad various minds and contending tongues, compact of obscure and minute association, a language has its own abundant and often recondite laws, in the habitual and summary recognition of which scholarship consists.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“Now, honestly: if a large group of ... demonstrators blocked the entrances to St. Patrick’s Cathedral every Sunday for years, making it impossible for worshipers to get inside the church without someone escorting them through screaming crowds, wouldn’t some judge rule that those protesters could keep protesting, but behind police lines and out of the doorways?”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1953)
“It may seem strange that any road through such a wilderness should be passable, even in winter, when the snow is three or four feet deep, but at that season, wherever lumbering operations are actively carried on, teams are continually passing on the single track, and it becomes as smooth almost as a railway.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
