| 1. | Furthermore, we see that the even permutations form a subgroup of " S ".
|
| 2. | The symmetries correspond to the even permutations of the body diagonals and the same combined with inversion.
|
| 3. | In terms of permutations the two group elements of are the set of even permutations and the set of odd permutations.
|
| 4. | In mathematics, an "'alternating group "'is the group of even permutations of a finite set.
|
| 5. | In three dimensions only, the cyclic permutations of are all even permutations, similarly the anticyclic permutations are all odd permutations.
|
| 6. | Only even permutations of the corner pieces are possible, so the number of possible arrangements of corner pieces is 6 ! / 2.
|
| 7. | An odd permutation followed by an odd permutation will represent an overall even permutation ( adding two odd numbers always returns an even number ).
|
| 8. | The even permutations produce the subgroup of permutation matrices of determinant + 1, the order " n " ! / 2 alternating group.
|
| 9. | Similarly, the mirror image has either an odd permutation with an even number of plus signs or an even permutation with an odd number of plus signs.
|
| 10. | That is, is 1 if is an even permutation of, " 1 if it is an odd permutation, and 0 if any index is repeated.
