Abstract

This paper considers the pair (GRn(F),⚬) consisting of the set of all invertible rhotrices of size n over an arbitrary field F; and together with the binary operation of row-column method for rhotrix multiplication; in order to introduce it as the concept of “non-commutative general rhotrix group”. We identify a number of subgroups of (GRn(F),⚬) and then advance to show that its particular subgroup is embedded in a particular subgroup of the well-known general linear group (GRn(F),•). Furthermore, we shall investigate isomorphic relationship between some subgroups of (GRn(F),⚬).
