Meaning of "abelian" in English

In mathematics, "abelian" refers to a type of group that is commutative, meaning the group operation's result does not depend on the order of the elements. Named after the mathematician Niels Henrik Abel, abelian groups play a fundamental role in abstract algebra. They are characterized by the condition that for any two elements in the group, the operation between them results in the same outcome regardless of their order. Abelian groups are important due to their structured yet simple properties, making them easier to study and apply in various mathematical contexts.

Meaning of "abélien" in French

The term "abélien," similar to its English counterpart, refers to a commutative group in mathematics. It signifies a mathematical structure where the order of elements in an operation does not affect the result. Named after Norwegian mathematician Niels Henrik Abel, abélien groups are central to the study of algebra as they form a class of structures that can be thoroughly analyzed and utilized in diverse mathematical fields. The concept remains largely the same across languages, highlighting the universality of mathematical ideas.
