Primitive Groups, Part 1 (1921)

Primitive Groups, Part 1 is a mathematical treatise written by William Albert Manning and first published in 1921. The book is a comprehensive study of the theory of primitive groups, which are groups of permutations that cannot be decomposed into smaller groups. The book is divided into three main sections. The first section provides an introduction to the theory of groups and explains the basic concepts and definitions used throughout the book. The second section focuses on the theory of primitive groups and includes detailed discussions of their properties and applications. The final section of the book provides a number of examples and exercises designed to help readers develop their understanding of the theory. Throughout the book, Manning uses clear and concise language to explain complex mathematical concepts, making it accessible to both students and professionals in the field. Overall, Primitive Groups, Part 1 is an important work in the field of group theory and remains a valuable resource for mathematicians today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
