The main property of the function, f, of n variables in an abelian group that can be constructed by summing values of f over all permutations of its arguments is analogous to what type of group in Galois theory?
|
A Galois group in Galois theory is also considered to be symmetric.

What was Apis and when did the worship of Apis as a proper god begin?
|
In ancient Egyptian religion, Apis or Hapis was a sacred bull worshiped in the Memphis region, identified as the son of Hathor, a primary deity in the pantheon of ancient Egypt. The worship of Apis as a proper god purportedly started during the reign of king Kaiechos (possibly Nebra) of the Second Dynasty.
