The history of group theory, a mathematical domain studying groups in their various forms, has evolved in various parallel threads. There are three historical roots of group theory: the theory of algebraic equations, number theory and geometry.[1][2][3] Joseph Louis Lagrange, Niels Henrik Abel and Évariste Galois were early researchers in the field of group theory.
