  2. Restriction (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Let : be a function from a set to a set . If a set is a subset of , then the restriction of to is the function [1] |: given by | = for . Informally, the restriction of to is the same function as , but is only defined on .

  3. Retraction (topology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retraction_(topology)

    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 ...

    A straight line in the projective space corresponds to a two-dimensional linear subspace of the (n+1)-dimensional linear space. More generally, a k-dimensional projective subspace of the projective space corresponds to a (k+1)-dimensional linear subspace of the (n+1)-dimensional linear space, and is isomorphic to the k-dimensional projective space.

  5. Subspace topology - Wikipedia

    In the following, represents the real numbers with their usual topology. The subspace topology of the natural numbers, as a subspace of , is the discrete topology.; The rational numbers considered as a subspace of do not have the discrete topology ({0} for example is not an open set in because there is no open subset of whose intersection with can result in only the singleton {0}).

  6. Bounded set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bounded_set

    A subset S of a metric space (M, d) is bounded if there exists r > 0 such that for all s and t in S, we have d(s, t) < r. The metric space (M, d) is a bounded metric space (or d is a bounded metric) if M is bounded as a subset of itself. Total boundedness implies boundedness. For subsets of R n the two are equivalent.

  7. Mapping class group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mapping_class_group

    Mapping class groups of 3-manifolds have received considerable study as well, and are closely related to mapping class groups of 2-manifolds. For example, any finite group can be realized as the mapping class group (and also the isometry group) of a compact hyperbolic 3-manifold. [6]

  8. Inclusion–exclusion principle - Wikipedia

    In the given example, there are 12 = 2(3!) permutations with property P 1, 6 = 3! permutations with property P 2 and no permutations have properties P 3 or P 4 as there are no restrictions for these two elements. The number of permutations satisfying the restrictions is thus: 4! − (12 + 6 + 0 + 0) + (4) = 24 − 18 + 4 = 10.

  9. Projection (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    The result of such projection is defined as the set that is obtained when all tuples in R are restricted to the set {, …,}. [4] [5] [6] [verification needed] R is a database-relation. [citation needed] In spherical geometry, projection of a sphere upon a plane was used by Ptolemy (~150) in his Planisphaerium. [7]
