Representation Theory
A subgroup is a subset of a group that itself forms a group under the same operation. This means that a subgroup must contain the identity element, be closed under the group operation, and contain the inverse of each of its elements. Understanding subgroups is essential as they help to analyze the structure of groups, reveal symmetries, and facilitate the study of representations and their properties.
