Abstract
This dissertation presents a studyof a certain algebraic system,termed: “Non-commutative general linear rhotrix group”. The groupis considered to be analogous to the well-known General Linear Group. The Non-commutative General Linear Rhotrix Group consists of all invertible rhotrices of size with entries from an arbitrary field F and it has beenshown to possessnon-commutative rhotrix groups as its subgroups. Certain subgroups of non-commutative general linear rhotrix group have also beenidentified and then shown to be embedded in some subgroups of the general linear group. Furthermore, some finite non-commutative groups of rhotrices as well as their subgroups areconstructed and shown as concrete examples. It is of interest that this study will go to a large extent in simplification of teaching and learning of group theory in Mathematical discipline.
