A homomorphism is a structure-preserving map between two algebraic structures, such as groups, that respects the operations defined on those structures. In the context of group theory, this means if you take two elements from one group and apply the group operation to them, the result will correspond to the result of applying the operation to their images in another group. This concept is crucial for understanding how different groups relate to each other, particularly in terms of symmetry and representation.
