  2. Map folding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map_folding

    Map folding is the question of how many ways there are to fold a rectangular map along its creases, allowing each crease to form either a mountain or a valley fold. It differs from stamp folding in that it includes both vertical and horizontal creases, rather than only creases in a single direction.

  3. National Defence Academy and Naval Academy Examination

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Defence_Academy...

    The written examination consists of two papers: Mathematics and General Ability Test (GAT). Both papers are objective type and are conducted on the same day. The Mathematics paper evaluates the candidates' mathematical aptitude, while the GAT paper assesses their English language proficiency, general knowledge, and reasoning abilities.

  4. Spatial Mathematics: Theory and Practice through Mapping

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_Mathematics:...

    Later in the book, but fitting thematically into this part, [1] [4] chapter 9 covers map projections. [3] Moving from geodesy to visualization, [1] chapters 4 and 5 concern the use of color and scale on maps. Chapter 6 concerns the types of data to be visualized, and the types of visualizations that can be made for them.

  5. Pointed set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointed_set

    Pointed maps are the homomorphisms of these algebraic structures. The class of all pointed sets together with the class of all based maps forms a category. Every pointed set can be converted to an ordinary set by forgetting the basepoint (the forgetful functor is faithful), but the reverse is not true.

  6. 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]

  7. Homomorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homomorphism

    In algebra, a homomorphism is a structure-preserving map between two algebraic structures of the same type (such as two groups, two rings, or two vector spaces).The word homomorphism comes from the Ancient Greek language: ὁμός (homos) meaning "same" and μορφή (morphe) meaning "form" or "shape".

  8. Four color theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_color_theorem

    In graph-theoretic terms, the theorem states that for loopless planar graph, its chromatic number is ().. The intuitive statement of the four color theorem – "given any separation of a plane into contiguous regions, the regions can be colored using at most four colors so that no two adjacent regions have the same color" – needs to be interpreted appropriately to be correct.

  9. Choropleth map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choropleth_map

    The earliest known choropleth map was created in 1826 by Baron Pierre Charles Dupin, depicting the availability of basic education in France by department. [4] More "cartes teintées" ("tinted maps") were soon produced in France to visualize other "moral statistics" on education, disease, crime, and living conditions.
