dihedral_group

Description:

This symbol is a function with one argument, which should be a positive integer n. When applied to n it represents the dihedral group of order 2n. This is the group of all isometries (including reflections) of the regular n-gon in the plane.

Commented Mathematical property (CMP):

The dihedral group of order 2n is isomorphic to the group generated by a, b with presentation a^2 = b^n = 1 and a b a = b^(-1).
