    For example, in a fiber bundle, the total space is often said to be upstairs, with the base space downstairs. In a fraction, the numerator is occasionally referred to as upstairs and the denominator downstairs, as in "bringing a term upstairs". up to, modulo, mod out by An extension to mathematical discourse of the notions of modular arithmetic.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basis_(linear_algebra)

    A projective basis is + points in general position, in a projective space of dimension n. A convex basis of a polytope is the set of the vertices of its convex hull. A cone basis [5] consists of one point by edge of a polygonal cone. See also a Hilbert basis (linear programming).

  4. Basis function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basis_function

    In mathematics, a basis function is an element of a particular basis for a function space. Every function in the function space can be represented as a linear combination of basis functions, just as every vector in a vector space can be represented as a linear combination of basis vectors .

  5. Base (topology) - Wikipedia

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

    For example, the Euclidean topology on the plane admits as a base the set of all open rectangles with horizontal and vertical sides, and a nonempty intersection of two such basic open sets is also a basic open set. But another base for the same topology is the collection of all open disks; and here the full (B2) condition is necessary.

    Absolutely closed See H-closed Accessible See . Accumulation point See limit point. Alexandrov topology The topology of a space X is an Alexandrov topology (or is finitely generated) if arbitrary intersections of open sets in X are open, or equivalently, if arbitrary unions of closed sets are closed, or, again equivalently, if the open sets are the upper sets of a poset.

  7. Radix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radix

    For base ten, the subscript is usually assumed and omitted (together with the enclosing parentheses), as it is the most common way to express value. For example, (100) 10 is equivalent to 100 (the decimal system is implied in the latter) and represents the number one hundred, while (100) 2 (in the binary system with base 2) represents the ...

  8. Standard basis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_basis

    Every vector a in three dimensions is a linear combination of the standard basis vectors i, j and k.. In mathematics, the standard basis (also called natural basis or canonical basis) of a coordinate vector space (such as or ) is the set of vectors, each of whose components are all zero, except one that equals 1.
