Definition

This group, denoted or , is defined in the following equivalent ways:

  1. It is a cyclic group of order 14.
  2. It is the direct product of the cyclic group:Z2 and the cyclic group:Z7.

Arithmetic functions

Want to compare and contrast arithmetic function values with other groups of the same order? Check out groups of order 14#Arithmetic functions

Function Value Similar groups Explanation
order (number of elements, equivalently, cardinality or size of underlying set) 14 groups with same order
exponent of a group 14 groups with same order and exponent of a group | groups with same exponent of a group
nilpotency class 1 groups with same order and nilpotency class | groups with same nilpotency class cyclic implies abelian
derived length 1 groups with same order and derived length | groups with same derived length cyclic implies abelian

GAP implementation

Group ID

This finite group has order 14 and has ID 2 among the groups of order 14 in GAP's SmallGroup library. For context, there are groups of order 14. It can thus be defined using GAP's SmallGroup function as:

SmallGroup(14,2)

For instance, we can use the following assignment in GAP to create the group and name it :

gap> G := SmallGroup(14,2);

Conversely, to check whether a given group is in fact the group we want, we can use GAP's IdGroup function:

IdGroup(G) = [14,2]

or just do:

IdGroup(G)

to have GAP output the group ID, that we can then compare to what we want.
