Frobenius Theorem

There are several mathematical theorems named after Ferdinand Georg Frobenius. They include:

  • Frobenius theorem in differential geometry and topology for integrable subbundles;
  • Frobenius theorem in abstract algebra characterizing the finite-dimensional real division algebras;
  • Frobenius reciprocity theorem in group representation theory describing the reciprocity relation between restricted and induced representations on a subgroup;
  • Perron–Frobenius theorem in matrix theory concerning the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix with positive real coefficients.

Famous quotes containing the word theorem:

    To insure the adoration of a theorem for any length of time, faith is not enough, a police force is needed as well.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
