Cycle graph (algebra) - Wikipedia
WEBIn group theory, a subfield of abstract algebra, a cycle graph of a group is an undirected graph that illustrates the various cycles of that group, given a set of generators for the group. Cycle graphs are particularly useful in visualizing the structure of small finite groups.

WEBAug 22, 2024 · A cycle graph of a group is a graph which shows cycles of a group as well as the connectivity between the cycles. Such graphs are constructed by drawing labeled nodes, one for each element A of the group, and …
Cyclic group - Wikipedia
WEBA cycle graph illustrates the various cycles of a group and is particularly useful in visualizing the structure of small finite groups. A cycle graph for a cyclic group is simply a circular graph, where the group order is equal to the number of nodes. A single generator defines the group as a directional path on the graph, and the inverse ...

WEBAug 22, 2024 · A different sort of cycle graph, here termed a group cycle graph, is a graph which shows cycles of a group as well as the connectivity between the group cycles. Cycle graphs can be generated in the Wolfram Language using CycleGraph[n].
Cycle graph - Wikipedia
WEBIn graph theory, a cycle graph or circular graph is a graph that consists of a single cycle, or in other words, some number of vertices (at least 3, if the graph is simple) connected in a closed chain.
How in general does one construct a cycle graph for a group?
WEBMar 6, 2019 · Start with the graph containing only the identity element (and no edges). In each step after this, you: Pick an element not already in the graph. Compute the cyclic subgroup generated by the element and add the cycle to the graph (connecting to already existing nodes as needed).
Group Cycle -- from Wolfram MathWorld
WEBAug 22, 2024 · A cycle of a finite group G is a minimal set of elements {A^0,A^1,...,A^n} such that A^0=A^n=I, where I is the identity element. A diagram of a group showing every cycle in the group is known as a cycle graph (Shanks 1993, p. 83).

WEBApr 11, 2015 · The cycle for an element of order $n$ contains exactly $n$ nodes, including the identity element node. The cycle for an element $x$ of order $n$ consists of the nodes for elements $e, x, x^2, x^3,\ldots x^{n-1}$.

WEBAny group which is generated by a single element (including the usual integers!) is called a cyclic group. (This is yet another interpretation of \(\mathbb{Z}_n\)!) We can choose other numbers than \(1\) as the generator, though!
WEBCycle graph is a graph that corresponds to a group. Group elements are vertices. Two elements a and b are a part of a cycle if b = an for some n. Note that this has a consequence that a cycle graph of a cyclic group is a cycle (as every elements is …
