GCD: The greatest common divisor of two nonzero integers a and b is the largest of all common divisors of a and b.

LCM: The least common multiple of two nonzero integers a and b is the smallest positive integer that is a multiple of both a and b.

Monomorphism: morphism for which phi(g) = phi(g') happens only if g = g'. (injective)

Epimorphism: morphism for which every element in target group H is hit. (surjective)

Isomorphism: morphism that is both injective and surjective.

The kernel of a morphism is the collection of elements in G that satisfy phi(g) = 1_H

An inner automorphism, Inn(G), is always attached to some group element written ϕ_{a} for the following morphism from G to itself: ϕ_{a}(g)=aga⁻¹
