Group theory is a mathematical discipline that studies the algebraic structures known as groups. A group is a set equipped with a binary operation that combines elements in a consistent manner, satisfying certain properties such as closure, associativity, identity element, and inverses. Group theory explores the properties and relationships of groups, including subgroups, homomorphisms, isomorphisms, and group actions. It has applications in various areas of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and computer science.
