13. A permutation is often represented by the cycles it has. For example, if we permute the
numbers in the natural order to 2 3 1 5 4, this is represented as (1 3 2) (5 4). In this the (132)
says that the first number has gone to the position 3, the third number has gone to the
position 2, and the second number has gone to position 1, and (5 4) means that the fifth
number has gone to position 4 and the fourth number has gone to position 5. The numbers
with brackets are to be read cyclically.
If a number has not changed position, it is kept as a single cycle. Thus 5 2 1 3 4 is represented
as (1345)(2).
We may apply permutations on itself If we apply the permutation (132)(54) once, we get 2 3 1
5 4. If we apply it again, we get 3 1 2 4 5 , or (1 2 3)(4) (5)
If we consider the permutation of 7 numbers (1457)(263), what is its order (how many times
must it be applied before the numbers appear in their original order)?
