    We defined rings, commutative rings, division rings and fields. We then gave examples including the quaternion ring, rings of algebraic integrers and matrix rings. We also discussed Fermat's Last Theorem and the use and misuse of unique factorization.

  • Friday, October 9
    We explore the properties of the dihedral groups, proving that they are nonabelian groups of order 2n. We also defined subgroups of finite groups and discussed the classification of finite simple groups and Galois theory.

    We prove that there exists a group of order n for any positive integer n, namely the cyclic group of order n. We started to define the dihedral groups.
