  2. Smale's problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smale's_problems

    Smale's problems is a list of eighteen unsolved problems in mathematics proposed by Steve Smale in 1998 [1] and republished in 1999. [2] Smale composed this list in reply to a request from Vladimir Arnold, then vice-president of the International Mathematical Union, who asked several mathematicians to propose a list of problems for the 21st century.

  3. Five-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-dimensional_space

    Therefore, the geometry of the 5th dimension studies the invariant properties of such space-time, as we move within it, expressed in formal equations. [11] Fifth dimensional geometry is generally represented using 5 coordinate values (x,y,z,w,v), where moving along the v axis involves moving between different hyper-volumes .

  4. Spatial Mathematics: Theory and Practice through Mapping

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

    Chapter 6 concerns the types of data to be visualized, and the types of visualizations that can be made for them. Chapter 7 concerns spatial hierarchies and central place theory, while chapter 8 covers the analysis of spatial distributions in terms of their covariance. Finally, chapter 10 covers network and non-Euclidean data. [1] [3]

  5. Spatial analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_analysis

    Spatial measurement scale is a persistent issue in spatial analysis; more detail is available at the modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP) topic entry. Landscape ecologists developed a series of scale invariant metrics for aspects of ecology that are fractal in nature. [ 37 ]

  6. List of unsolved problems in mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unsolved_problems...

    Many mathematical problems have been stated but not yet solved. These problems come from many areas of mathematics, such as theoretical physics, computer science, algebra, analysis, combinatorics, algebraic, differential, discrete and Euclidean geometries, graph theory, group theory, model theory, number theory, set theory, Ramsey theory, dynamical systems, and partial differential equations.

  7. Kaluza–Klein theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaluza–Klein_theory

    Without this restriction, terms are introduced that involve derivatives of the fields with respect to the fifth coordinate, and this extra degree of freedom makes the mathematics of the fully variable 5D relativity enormously complex. Standard 4D physics seems to manifest this "cylinder condition" and, along with it, simpler mathematics.

  8. Warped product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warped_product

    Warped geometries acquire their full meaning when we substitute the variable y for t, time and x, for s, space.Then the f(y) factor of the spatial dimension becomes the effect of time that in words of Einstein "curves space".

  9. Hilbert's fifth problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert's_fifth_problem

    Hilbert's fifth problem is the fifth mathematical problem from the problem list publicized in 1900 by mathematician David Hilbert, and concerns the characterization of Lie groups. The theory of Lie groups describes continuous symmetry in mathematics; its importance there and in theoretical physics (for example quark theory ) grew steadily in ...
