General Linear Group
- $\GL {n, K}$
- $\GL n$
- $\map {\mathrm {GL}_n} K$
- $\map {\mathrm {Gl} } {n, r}$
$\GL {n, K}$ is used to denote the general linear group of degree $n$ over the field $K$.
$\GL n$ can be used if the field is implicit.
Some sources use the notation $\map {\mathrm {GL}_n} K$.
If $K$ is a Galois field of order $q$, the notations $\map {\mathrm {GL}_n} q$ and $\GL {n, q}$ are also seen.
Some sources use $\map {\mathrm {Gl} } {n, r}$ for $\GL {n, \R}$.
Variants of $\mathrm {GL}$ can be seen, for example $\map {GL} {n, K}$ and so on.
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\GL {n, K}\) is \GL {n, K}
.
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\GL n\) is \GL n
.
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\map {\mathrm {Gl} } {n, r}\) is \map {\mathrm {Gl} } {n, r}
.
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\map {\mathrm {GL}_n} K\) is \map {\mathrm {GL}_n} K
.
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\map {GL} {n, K}\) is \map {GL} {n, K}
.
