Fixed points |
The last one of the fundamental concepts induced by an action of G on X is that of fixed points . A point x ÎX is said to be fixed under g ÎG if and only if gx=x, and the set of all the fixed points of g is indicated by
Xg := {x | gx=x }.
More generally, for any subset S ÍG, we put
XS := {x | " g ÎS : gx=x }.
The particular case XG is called the set of invariants .
