1Quotient space — In topology and related areas of mathematics, a quotient space (also called an identification space) is, intuitively speaking, the result of identifying or gluing together certain points of a given space. The points to be identified are specified …
2Quotient ring — In mathematics a quotient ring, also known as factor ring or residue class ring, is a construction in ring theory, quite similar to the factor groups of group theory and the quotient spaces of linear algebra. One starts with a ring R and a two… …
3Quotient space (linear algebra) — In linear algebra, the quotient of a vector space V by a subspace N is a vector space obtained by collapsing N to zero. The space obtained is called a quotient space and is denoted V / N (read V mod N ). Definition Formally, the construction is… …
4Class formation — In mathematics, a class formation is a structure used to organize the various Galois groups and modules that appear in class field theory. They were invented by Emil Artin and John Tate. Contents 1 Definitions 2 Examples of class formations 3 The …
5Quotient category — In mathematics, a quotient category is a category obtained from another one by identifying sets of morphisms. The notion is similar to that of a quotient group or quotient space, but in the categorical setting.DefinitionLet C be a category. A… …
6Quotient algebra — In mathematics, a quotient algebra, (where algebra is used in the sense of universal algebra), also called a factor algebra is obtained by partitioning the elements of an algebra in equivalence classes given by a congruence, that is an… …
7Quotient — In mathematics, a quotient is the result of a division. For example, when dividing 6 by 3, the quotient is 2, while 6 is called the dividend, and 3 the divisor. The quotient can also be expressed as the number of times the divisor divides into… …
8Class field theory — In mathematics, class field theory is a major branch of algebraic number theory that studies abelian extensions of number fields. Most of the central results in this area were proved in the period between 1900 and 1950. The theory takes its name… …
9Quotient module — In abstract algebra, a branch of mathematics, given a module and a submodule, one can construct their quotient module. This construction, described below, is analogous to how one obtains the ring of integers modulo an integer n , see modular… …
10Class number formula — In number theory, the class number formula relates many important invariants of a number field to a special value of its Dedekind zeta function Contents 1 General statement of the class number formula 2 Galois extensions of the rationals 3 A …
