  2. Completeness of the real numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completeness_of_the_real...

    L does not have a maximum and R does not have a minimum, so this cut is not generated by a rational number. There is a construction of the real numbers based on the idea of using Dedekind cuts of rational numbers to name real numbers; e.g. the cut (L,R) described above would name . If one were to repeat the construction of real numbers with ...

  3. In Real Life (TV series) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Real_Life_(TV_series)

    In Real Life (formerly known as In the Real World) is a Canadian reality show where eighteen young contestants aged 12–14 race across North America and compete in a series of real-life tasks, aimed to "discover the skills, strength, and stamina it takes to make it in real life." [1] The show is developed and produced by Apartment 11 ...

  4. Real number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_number

    In mathematics real is used as an adjective, meaning that the underlying field is the field of the real numbers (or the real field). For example, real matrix, real polynomial and real Lie algebra. The word is also used as a noun, meaning a real number (as in "the set of all reals").

  5. List of types of numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_types_of_numbers

    Computable number: A real number whose digits can be computed by some algorithm. Period : A number which can be computed as the integral of some algebraic function over an algebraic domain . Definable number : A real number that can be defined uniquely using a first-order formula with one free variable in the language of set theory .

  6. Real analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_analysis

    Real analysis is an area of analysis that studies concepts such as sequences and their limits, continuity, differentiation, integration and sequences of functions. By definition, real analysis focuses on the real numbers, often including positive and negative infinity to form the extended real line.

  7. Real coordinate space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_coordinate_space

    Cartesian coordinates identify points of the Euclidean plane with pairs of real numbers. In mathematics, the real coordinate space or real coordinate n-space, of dimension n, denoted R n or , is the set of all ordered n-tuples of real numbers, that is the set of all sequences of n real numbers, also known as coordinate vectors.

  8. Monic polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monic_polynomial

    Let R be a subring of a field F; this implies that R is an integral domain. An element a of F is integral over R if it is a root of a monic polynomial with coefficients in R. A complex number that is integral over the integers is called an algebraic integer.

  9. Cardinal function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardinal_function

    Cardinal functions are widely used in topology as a tool for describing various topological properties. [2] [3] Below are some examples.(Note: some authors, arguing that "there are no finite cardinal numbers in general topology", [4] prefer to define the cardinal functions listed below so that they never taken on finite cardinal numbers as values; this requires modifying some of the ...
