space periodicity
1Periodicity — is the quality of occurring at regular intervals or periods (in time or space) and can occur in different contexts: * A clock marks time at periodic intervals. * A metronome ticks at periodic intervals of time. * A publication published at… …
2Bott periodicity theorem — In mathematics, the Bott periodicity theorem is a result from homotopy theory discovered by Raoul Bott during the latter part of the 1950s, which proved to be of foundational significance for much further research, in particular in K theory of… …
3Fokker periodicity blocks — are a concept in tuning theory used to mathematically relate musical intervals in just intonation to those in equal tuning. They are named after Adriaan Daniël Fokker.The basic idea of Fokker s periodicity blocks is to represent just ratios as… …
4Complex projective space — The Riemann sphere, the one dimensional complex projective space, i.e. the complex projective line. In mathematics, complex projective space is the projective space with respect to the field of complex numbers. By analogy, whereas the points of a …
5Classifying space — In mathematics, specifically in homotopy theory, a classifying space BG of a topological group G is the quotient of a weakly contractible space EG (i.e. a topological space for which all its homotopy groups are trivial) by a free action of G. It… …
6Classifying space for U(n) — In mathematics, the classifying space for the unitary group U(n) is a space B(U(n)) together with a universal bundle E(U(n)) such that any hermitian bundle on a paracompact space X is the pull back of E by a map X → B unique up to homotopy. This… …
7Localization of a topological space — In mathematics, well behaved topological spaces can be localized at primes, in a similar way to the localization of a ring at a prime. This construction was described by Dennis Sullivan in 1970 lecture notes that were finally published in… …
8Spin density wave — (SDW) and charge density wave (CDW) are names for two similar low energy ordered states of solids. Both these states occur at low temperature in anisotropic, low dimensional materials or in metals that have high densities of states at the Fermi… …
9Redshift quantization — is the hypothesis that the redshifts of cosmologically distant objects (in particular galaxies) tend to cluster around multiples of some particular value. Since there is a correlation of distance and redshift as expressed in Hubble s Law,… …
