problem of reduction
1Reduction — Reduction, reduced, or reduce may refer to:cienceChemistry*Reduction – chemical reaction in which atoms have their oxidation number (oxidation state) changed. **Reduced gas – a gas with a low oxidation number **Ore reduction: see… …
2Reduction potential — (also known as redox potential, oxidation / reduction potential, ORP or Eh) is a measure of the tendency of a chemical species to acquire electrons and thereby be reduced. Reduction potential is measured in volts (V), or millivolts (mV). Each… …
3Problem solving — forms part of thinking. Considered the most complex of all intellectual functions, problem solving has been defined as higher order cognitive process that requires the modulation and control of more routine or fundamental skills (Goldstein Levin …
4Problem-oriented policing — (POP), coined by University of Wisconsin Madison professor Herman Goldstein, is a policing strategy that involves the identification and analysis of specific crime and disorder problems, in order to develop effective response strategies in… …
5Reduction of order — is a technique in mathematics for solving second order ordinary differential equations. It is employed when one solution y 1(x) is known and a second linearly independent solution y 2(x) is desired.A Simple ExampleConsider the general second… …
6Reduction (complexity) — Example of a reduction from a boolean satisfiability problem to a vertex cover problem. Blue vertices form a vertex cover which corresponds to truth values. In computability theory and computational complexity theory, a reduction is a… …
7Reduction (mathematics) — In mathematics, reduction refers to the rewriting of an expression into a simpler form. For example, the process of rewriting a fraction into one with the smallest whole number denominator possible (while keeping the numerator an integer) is… …
8Reduction in Yield — Die Kennzahl Reduction in Yield, kurz RIY (übersetzt etwa Ertragsminderung oder Effektivkosten), zeigt im Bereich der Versicherungen den Verlust durch versicherungs und fondsbezogene Kosten auf. Es werden also die Renditeeinbußen durch die… …
9Reduction (recursion theory) — In computability theory, many reducibility relations (also called reductions, reducibilities, and notions of reducibility) are studied. They are motivated by the question: given sets A and B of natural numbers, is it possible to effectively… …
10Dominating set problem — The dominating set problem is an NP complete problem in graph theory.DefinitionAn instance of the dominating set problem consists of: * a graph G with a set V of vertices and a set E of edges, and * a positive integer K smaller than or equal to… …
