  2. Restricted representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restricted_representation

    Classical branching rules describe the restriction of an irreducible complex representation (π, V) of a classical group G to a classical subgroup H, i.e. the multiplicity with which an irreducible representation (σ, W) of H occurs in π.

  3. Projection (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection_(mathematics)

    The concept of projection in mathematics is a very old one, and most likely has its roots in the phenomenon of the shadows cast by real-world objects on the ground. This rudimentary idea was refined and abstracted, first in a geometric context and later in other branches of mathematics. Over time different versions of the concept developed, but ...

  4. Space (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_(mathematics)

    A space consists of selected mathematical objects that are treated as points, and selected relationships between these points. The nature of the points can vary widely: for example, the points can represent numbers, functions on another space, or subspaces of another space. It is the relationships that define the nature of the space.

  5. Disintegration theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disintegration_theorem

    In mathematics, the disintegration theorem is a result in measure theory and probability theory. It rigorously defines the idea of a non-trivial "restriction" of a measure to a measure zero subset of the measure space in question. It is related to the existence of conditional probability measures.

  6. Restriction (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restriction_(mathematics)

    Let , be two closed subsets (or two open subsets) of a topological space such that =, and let also be a topological space. If f : A → B {\displaystyle f:A\to B} is continuous when restricted to both X {\displaystyle X} and Y , {\displaystyle Y,} then f {\displaystyle f} is continuous.

  7. Closed manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_manifold

    The only connected one-dimensional example is a circle. The sphere, torus, and the Klein bottle are all closed two-dimensional manifolds. The real projective space RP n is a closed n-dimensional manifold. The complex projective space CP n is a closed 2n-dimensional manifold. [1] A line is not closed because it is not compact.

    A space is an absolute neighborhood retract for the class , written ⁡ (), if is in and whenever is a closed subset of a space in , is a neighborhood retract of . Various classes C {\displaystyle {\mathcal {C}}} such as normal spaces have been considered in this definition, but the class M {\displaystyle {\mathcal {M}}} of metrizable spaces ...

    Packing squares in a square: Optimal solutions have been proven for n from 1-10, 14-16, 22-25, 33-36, 62-64, 79-81, 98-100, and any square integer. The wasted space is asymptotically O(a 3/5). Packing squares in a circle: Good solutions are known for n ≤ 35. The optimal packing of 10 squares in a square
