81Peano axioms — In mathematical logic, the Peano axioms, also known as the Dedekind Peano axioms or the Peano postulates, are a set of axioms for the natural numbers presented by the 19th century Italian mathematician Giuseppe Peano. These axioms have been used… …
82Path integral formulation — This article is about a formulation of quantum mechanics. For integrals along a path, also known as line or contour integrals, see line integral. The path integral formulation of quantum mechanics is a description of quantum theory which… …
83Manifold — For other uses, see Manifold (disambiguation). The sphere (surface of a ball) is a two dimensional manifold since it can be represented by a collection of two dimensional maps. In mathematics (specifically in differential geometry and topology),… …
84Implementation of mathematics in set theory — This article examines the implementation of mathematical concepts in set theory. The implementation of a number of basic mathematical concepts is carried out in parallel in ZFC (the dominant set theory) and in NFU, the version of Quine s New… …
85C*-algebra — C* algebras (pronounced C star ) are an important area of research in functional analysis, a branch of mathematics. The prototypical example of a C* algebra is a complex algebra A of linear operators on a complex Hilbert space with two additional …
86Distributive lattice — In mathematics, distributive lattices are lattices for which the operations of join and meet distribute over each other. The prototypical examples of such structures are collections of sets for which the lattice operations can be given by set… …
87Basis (linear algebra) — Basis vector redirects here. For basis vector in the context of crystals, see crystal structure. For a more general concept in physics, see frame of reference. In linear algebra, a basis is a set of linearly independent vectors that, in a linear… …
88Function (mathematics) — f(x) redirects here. For the band, see f(x) (band). Graph of example function, In mathematics, a function associates one quantity, the a …
89Generalized Verma module — Generalized Verma modules are object in the representation theory of Lie algebras, a field in mathematics. They were studied originally by James Lepowsky in seventies. The motivation for their study is that their homomorphisms correspond to… …
90Number — For other uses, see Numbers (disambiguation). A number is a mathematical object used to count and measure. In mathematics, the definition of number has been extended over the years to include such numbers as zero, negative numbers, rational… …
