让学生熟掌握论及对称论的基本识、法,及其主流和重要问题;过学有限
群分类定理,了解该域的发展趋势。学生学习内容包括有限群的结构及群作用、有限域上的群表
论、有限典型群的子群、群在图上的作用、图的对称性以及凯莱图的同构问题。
Students are supposed to understand basic knowledge and methods of group theory and symmetric graph
theory, as well as their mainstream and important problems. Students can also understand the development
tendency of group theory by learning the classification of finite simple groups. The main content includes
Structures and actions of finite groupsgroup representations over finite fields, subgroups of finite classical
groups, group actions on graphs and graph symmetries, and isomorphism problems for Cayley graphs.
