51Dual number — For dual grammatical number found in some languages, see Dual (grammatical number). In linear algebra, the dual numbers extend the real numbers by adjoining one new element ε with the property ε2 = 0 (ε is nilpotent). The collection of dual… …

53Quaternion — Quaternions, in mathematics, are a non commutative extension of complex numbers. They were first described by the Irish mathematician Sir William Rowan Hamilton in 1843 and applied to mechanics in three dimensional space. They find uses in both… …
54Field (mathematics) — This article is about fields in algebra. For fields in geometry, see Vector field. For other uses, see Field (disambiguation). In abstract algebra, a field is a commutative ring whose nonzero elements form a group under multiplication. As such it …
55Differentiable manifold — A nondifferentiable atlas of charts for the globe. The results of calculus may not be compatible between charts if the atlas is not differentiable. In the middle chart the Tropic of Cancer is a smooth curve, whereas in the first it has a sharp… …
56Moment map — In mathematics, specifically in symplectic geometry, the momentum map (or moment map) is a tool associated with a Hamiltonian action of a Lie group on a symplectic manifold, used to construct conserved quantities for the action. The moment map… …
57Golden ratio — For the Ace of Base album, see The Golden Ratio (album). Not to be confused with Golden number. The golden section is a line segment divided according to the golden ratio: The total length a + b is to the length of the longer segment a as the… …
58Moduli space — In algebraic geometry, a moduli space is a geometric space (usually a scheme or an algebraic stack) whose points represent algebro geometric objects of some fixed kind, or isomorphism classes of such objects. Such spaces frequently arise as… …
59Algebraic K-theory — In mathematics, algebraic K theory is an important part of homological algebra concerned with defining and applying a sequence Kn(R) of functors from rings to abelian groups, for all integers n. For historical reasons, the lower K groups K0 and… …
60Enriques–Kodaira classification — In mathematics, the Enriques–Kodaira classification is a classification of compact complex surfaces into ten classes. For each of these classes, the surfaces in the class can be parametrized by a moduli space. For most of the classes the moduli… …
