'''What we are''': Eventually, a complete and reliable reference for group theory. For now, an exciting place to read definitions and facts of group theory, and navigate the relationships between them
'''What you can get''': Quick access to [[:Category:Terminology|definitions]] ([[Help:Definition lookup|learn more]]), [[:Category:Facts|facts]] ([[Help:Fact lookup|learn more]]), [[:Category:Survey articles|survey articles]] ([[Help:Survey article lookup|learn more]]). An opportunity to explore relationships [[Help:Property-theoretic lookup|using the property-theoretic paradigm]]. Exciting add-ons like [[Groupprops:Guided tour|guided tours]]. The links in the left column will help you get around easily.
'''How to complement other resources''': Complement with your group theory textbooks ([[Help:Using textbook references|learn more]]), use [[Help:Using Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and [[Help:Using Google Scholar|Google Scholar]] more effectively. Enjoy the benefits of our [[Help:Using Searchbox|searchbox]].
'''What to watch out for''': Read our [[:Category:Groupprops conventions|conventions]] and beware of our [[Groupprops:Hazards|hazards]]: none of the content here is peer-reviewed and very little has been verified by multiple sources.
'''How to join''': [[Special:Userlogin|Sign up and log in]], and then proceed to [[Groupprops:Customize your experience|customize your experience]]. [[Groupprops:Who can join|Anybody can join]], and you can learn more on [[Groupprops:How to contribute|contributing]], if you're interested.
'''How to get help''': [[Help:Contents]] can help with that. Also, use the request/feedback links in the left column.

TIPS FOR FREQUENT SITE USERS: Learn site-specific search shortcuts | Read the FAQ

Welcome to Groupprops, The Group Properties Wiki (beta). 8000+ articles, including most basic group theory material. It is managed by Vipul Naik, a Ph.D. in Mathematics at the University of Chicago. It is part of a broader subject wikis initiative -- see the subject wikis reference guide for more details.

NEED HELP WITH UNDERGRADUATE LEVEL GROUP THEORY? If you want something specific, try the search bar! Else, try:
Basic definitions in group theory, basic facts in group theory, and elementary non-basic facts in group theory pages. There's much much more in the wiki!
Pages on symmetric group:S3 (see also subgroups, elements, representations), symmetric group:S4 (see also subgroups, elements, and representations), dihedral group:D8 (see also subgroups, elements, representations, and endomorphisms/automorphisms),symmetric group:S5 (see also subgroups, elements, and representations), quaternion group (see also subgroups, elements, and representations), alternating group:A4, alternating group:A5, and many more.
Incomplete (not fully finished) guided tour for beginners; the part prepared so far goes over the basic definitions of groups, subgroups, cosets, basic results such as Lagrange's theorem, and a little more, along with stimulating exercises.
