  2. Multilinear map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multilinear_map

    A multilinear map of one variable is a linear map, and of two variables is a bilinear map. More generally, for any nonnegative integer , a multilinear map of k variables is called a k-linear map. If the codomain of a multilinear map is the field of scalars, it is called a multilinear form.

  3. Arnold's cat map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnold's_cat_map

    In Arnold's native Russian, the map is known as "okroshka (cold soup) from a cat" (Russian: окрошка из кошки), in reference to the map's mixing properties, and which forms a play on words. Arnold later wrote that he found the name "Arnold's Cat" by which the map is known in English and other languages to be "strange". [2]

  4. Train track map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Train_track_map

    Let Γ be the wedge of two loop-edges E a and E b corresponding to the free basis elements a and b, wedged at the vertex v. Let f : Γ → Γ be the map which fixes v and sends the edge E a to E b and that sends the edge E b to the edge-path E a E b. Then f is a train track representative of φ.

  5. Map (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    A map is a function, as in the association of any of the four colored shapes in X to its color in Y. In mathematics, a map or mapping is a function in its general sense. [1] These terms may have originated as from the process of making a geographical map: mapping the Earth surface to a sheet of paper. [2]

  6. Multivariate map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multivariate_map

    A bivariate map or multivariate map is a type of thematic map that displays two or more variables on a single map by combining different sets of symbols. [1] Each of the variables is represented using a standard thematic map technique, such as choropleth , cartogram , or proportional symbols .

  7. Conformal map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conformal_map

    Another example is the application of conformal mapping technique for solving the boundary value problem of liquid sloshing in tanks. [ 19 ] If a function is harmonic (that is, it satisfies Laplace's equation ∇ 2 f = 0 {\displaystyle \nabla ^{2}f=0} ) over a plane domain (which is two-dimensional), and is transformed via a conformal map to ...

  8. Bilinear map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilinear_map

    A bilinear map is a function: such that for all , the map (,) is a linear map from to , and for all , the map (,) is a linear map from to . In other words, when we hold the first entry of the bilinear map fixed while letting the second entry vary, the result is a linear operator, and similarly for when we hold the second entry fixed.

  9. Inversive geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversive_geometry

    The circle inversion map is anticonformal, which means that at every point it preserves angles and reverses orientation (a map is called conformal if it preserves oriented angles). Algebraically, a map is anticonformal if at every point the Jacobian is a scalar times an orthogonal matrix with negative determinant: in two dimensions the Jacobian ...
