Coset — In mathematics, if G is a group, and H is a subgroup of G, and g is an element of G, then gH = {gh : h an element of H } is a left coset of H in G, and Hg = {hg : h an element of H } is a right coset of H in G. Only when H is normal… … Wikipedia
Coset enumeration — In mathematics, coset enumeration is the problem of counting the cosets of a subgroup H of a group G given in terms of a presentation. As a by product, one obtains a permutation representation for G on the cosets of H. If H has a known finite… … Wikipedia
Coset leader — In the field of coding theory, a coset leader is defined as a word of minimum weight in any particular coset that is, a word with the lowest amount of non zero entries. Sometimes there are several words of equal minimum weight in a coset, and in… … Wikipedia
Coset conformal field theory — In theoretical physics, a coset conformal field theory is a conformal field theory that describes the degrees of freedom not included in a smaller conformal field theory H but included in a bigger conformal field theory G. The coset is called G/H … Wikipedia
Coset construction — In mathematics, the coset construction (or GKO construction) is a method of constructing unitary highest weight representations of the Virasoro algebra, introduced by Peter Goddard, Adrian Kent and David Olive (1986). The construction produces… … Wikipedia
