121Dedekind domain — In abstract algebra, a Dedekind domain or Dedekind ring, named after Richard Dedekind, is an integral domain in which every nonzero proper ideal factors into a product of prime ideals. It can be shown that such a factorization is then necessarily …
122Ideal class group — In mathematics, the extent to which unique factorization fails in the ring of integers of an algebraic number field (or more generally any Dedekind domain) can be described by a certain group known as an ideal class group (or class group). If… …
123Logicism — is one of the schools of thought in the philosophy of mathematics, putting forth the theory that mathematics is an extension of logic and therefore some or all mathematics is reducible to logic.[1] Bertrand Russell and Alfred North Whitehead… …
124Glossary of order theory — This is a glossary of some terms used in various branches of mathematics that are related to the fields of order, lattice, and domain theory. Note that there is a structured list of order topics available as well. Other helpful resources might be …
125Rotation matrix — In linear algebra, a rotation matrix is a matrix that is used to perform a rotation in Euclidean space. For example the matrix rotates points in the xy Cartesian plane counterclockwise through an angle θ about the origin of the Cartesian… …

127algebra, modern — ▪ mathematics Introduction also called abstract algebra branch of mathematics concerned with the general algebraic structure of various sets (such as real numbers (real number), complex numbers (complex number), matrices (matrix), and… …
128Butcher group — In mathematics, the Butcher group, named after the New Zealand mathematician John C. Butcher by Hairer Wanner (1974), is an infinite dimensional group first introduced in numerical analysis to study solutions of non linear ordinary differential… …
