List of Small Non-abelian Groups
| Order | Group | Subgroups | Properties | Cycle Graph |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6 | S3 = Dih3 | Z3, Z2 (3) | the smallest non-abelian group | |
| 8 | Dih4 | Z4, Z22 (2), Z2 (5) | ||
| quaternion group, Q8 = Dic2 | Z4 (3), Z2 | the smallest Hamiltonian group; smallest group demonstrating that all subgroups may be normal without the group being abelian; the smallest group G demonstrating that for a normal subgroup H the quotient group G/H need not be isomorphic to a subgroup of G | ||

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, small and/or groups:
“I made a list of things I have
to remember and a list
of things I want to forget,
but I see they are the same list.”
—Linda Pastan (b. 1932)
“I am opposed to writing about the private lives of living authors and psychoanalyzing them while they are alive. Criticism is getting all mixed up with a combination of the Junior F.B.I.- men, discards from Freud and Jung and a sort of Columnist peep- hole and missing laundry list school.... Every young English professor sees gold in them dirty sheets now. Imagine what they can do with the soiled sheets of four legal beds by the same writer and you can see why their tongues are slavering.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“To a small man every greater is an exaggeration.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Instead of seeing society as a collection of clearly defined “interest groups,” society must be reconceptualized as a complex network of groups of interacting individuals whose membership and communication patterns are seldom confined to one such group alone.”
—Diana Crane (b. 1933)
