71Lie algebra — In mathematics, a Lie algebra is an algebraic structure whose main use is in studying geometric objects such as Lie groups and differentiable manifolds. Lie algebras were introduced to study the concept of infinitesimal transformations. The term… …
72Determinant — This article is about determinants in mathematics. For determinants in epidemiology, see Risk factor. In linear algebra, the determinant is a value associated with a square matrix. It can be computed from the entries of the matrix by a specific… …
73Space (mathematics) — This article is about mathematical structures called spaces. For space as a geometric concept, see Euclidean space. For all other uses, see space (disambiguation). A hierarchy of mathematical spaces: The inner product induces a norm. The norm… …
74topology — topologic /top euh loj ik/, topological, adj. topologically, adv. topologist, n. /teuh pol euh jee/, n., pl. topologies for 3. Math. 1. the study of those properties of geometric forms that remain invariant under c …
75Classifying space for U(n) — In mathematics, the classifying space for the unitary group U(n) is a space B(U(n)) together with a universal bundle E(U(n)) such that any hermitian bundle on a paracompact space X is the pull back of E by a map X → B unique up to homotopy. This… …
76Orbifold notation — In geometry, orbifold notation (or orbifold signature) is a system, invented by William Thurston and popularized by the mathematician John Conway, for representing types of symmetry groups in two dimensional spaces of constant curvature. The… …
77Linear map — In mathematics, a linear map, linear mapping, linear transformation, or linear operator (in some contexts also called linear function) is a function between two vector spaces that preserves the operations of vector addition and scalar… …

79Algebraic number field — In mathematics, an algebraic number field (or simply number field) F is a finite (and hence algebraic) field extension of the field of rational numbers Q. Thus F is a field that contains Q and has finite dimension when considered as a vector… …
80Homotopy groups of spheres — In the mathematical field of algebraic topology, the homotopy groups of spheres describe how spheres of various dimensions can wrap around each other. They are examples of topological invariants, which reflect, in algebraic terms, the structure… …
