## Summary

In mathematics, the term **permutation representation** of a (typically finite) group $G$ can refer to either of two closely related notions: a representation of $G$ as a group of [[permutations|05RWFKVTJ7]], or as a group of permutation matrices. The term also refers to the combination of the two.
