GTSubGroupQ

GTSubGroupQ[group1,group2]
gives True if the group with smaller order is a subgroup of the group with larger order, and gives False otherwise.

DetailsDetails

  • A subset of a group is called "subgroup" if satisfies the four group axioms with the same multiplication operation as .
  • The elements of group1 and group2 can be of type symbol, matrix, quaternion or Euler angles (compare GTEulerAnglesQ, GTQuaternionQ and GTSymbolQ).
