The set of all automorphisms of an object forms a group, called the automorphism group.

This group is called the automorphism group of X.

The automorphism group of an object X in a category C is denoted Aut < sub > C </ sub >( X ), or simply Aut ( X ) if the category is clear from context.

The automorphism group of X is also called the symmetric group on X.

* In elementary arithmetic, the set of integers, Z, considered as a group under addition, has a unique nontrivial automorphism: negation.

Generally speaking, negation is an automorphism of any abelian group, but not of a ring or field.

* A group automorphism is a group isomorphism from a group to itself.

For every group G there is a natural group homomorphism G → Aut ( G ) whose image is the group Inn ( G ) of inner automorphisms and whose kernel is the center of G. Thus, if G has trivial center it can be embedded into its own automorphism group.

* In linear algebra, an endomorphism of a vector space V is a linear operator V → V. An automorphism is an invertible linear operator on V. When the vector space is finite-dimensional, the automorphism group of V is the same as the general linear group, GL ( V ).

The automorphism group is also called the isometry group.

The automorphism group is sometimes denoted Diff ( M ).

** In topology, morphisms between topological spaces are called continuous maps, and an automorphism of a topological space is a homeomorphism of the space to itself, or self-homeomorphism ( see homeomorphism group ).

One of the earliest group automorphisms ( automorphism of a group, not simply a group of automorphisms of points ) was given by the Irish mathematician William Rowan Hamilton in 1856, in his Icosian Calculus, where he discovered an order two automorphism, writing:

In mathematics, an automorphism is an isomorphism from a mathematical object to itself.

In mathematics, the orthogonal group of a symmetric bilinear form or quadratic form on a vector space is the group of invertible linear operators on the space which preserve the form: it is a subgroup of the automorphism group of the vector space.

In mathematics, the outer automorphism group of a group G

In mathematics, the Griess algebra is a commutative non-associative algebra on a real vector space of dimension 196884 that has the Monster group M as its automorphism 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.

In mathematics, a complex structure on a real vector space V is an automorphism of V that squares to the minus identity, − I.

In mathematics, a Ree group is a group of Lie type over a finite field constructed by from an exceptional automorphism of a Dynkin diagram that reverses the direction of the multiple bonds, generalizing the Suzuki groups found by Suzuki using a different method.

In mathematics a combination is a way of selecting several things out of a larger group, where ( unlike permutations ) order does not matter.

The mathematics of crystal structures developed by Bravais, Federov and others was used to classify crystals by their symmetry group, and tables of crystal structures were the basis for the series International Tables of Crystallography, first published in 1935.

In mathematics, particularly in the area of abstract algebra known as group theory, a characteristic subgroup is a subgroup that is invariant under all automorphisms of the parent group.

In mathematics, the classification of the finite simple groups is a theorem stating that every finite simple group belongs to one of four categories described below.

Cartesian coordinates are the foundation of analytic geometry, and provide enlightening geometric interpretations for many other branches of mathematics, such as linear algebra, complex analysis, differential geometry, multivariate calculus, group theory, and more.

A statistical analysis of the effect of dianetic therapy as measured by group tests of intelligence, mathematics and personality.

In mathematics, more specifically in abstract algebra, the commutator subgroup or derived subgroup of a group is the subgroup generated by all the commutators of the group.

In mathematics and abstract algebra, a group is the algebraic structure, where is a non-empty set and denotes a binary operation called the group operation.

He was the first to use the word " group " () as a technical term in mathematics to represent a group of permutations.

* E2 or E < sub > 2 </ sub > is an old name for the exceptional group G2 ( mathematics )

In mathematics, more specifically algebraic topology, the fundamental group ( defined by Henri Poincaré in his article Analysis Situs, published in 1895 ) is a group associated to any given pointed topological space that provides a way of determining when two paths, starting and ending at a fixed base point, can be continuously deformed into each other.

There are many distinct FFT algorithms involving a wide range of mathematics, from simple complex-number arithmetic to group theory and number theory ; this article gives an overview of the available techniques and some of their general properties, while the specific algorithms are described in subsidiary articles linked below.

In mathematics, specifically group theory, a quotient group ( or factor group ) is a group obtained by identifying together elements of a larger group using an equivalence relation.

He gathered a group of students around him to study mathematics, music, and philosophy, and together they discovered most of what high school students learn today in their geometry courses.

In mathematics, given two groups ( G, *) and ( H, ·), a group homomorphism from ( G, *) to ( H, ·) is a function h: G → H such that for all u and v in G it holds that
