Conjugacy classes form a partition of G, stated in terms of cardinality.

Conjugacy classes form a partition of G, stated in terms of cardinality.

The class equation for finite groups. The cardinality of a group is equal to the size of its center plus the sum of the size of all its nontrivial conjugacy classes.
