  2. Duality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, a duality translates concepts, theorems or mathematical structures into other concepts, theorems or structures in a one-to-one fashion, often (but not always) by means of an involution operation: if the dual of A is B, then the dual of B is A.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dualities

    In mathematics, a duality, generally speaking, translates concepts, theorems or mathematical structures into other concepts, theorems or structures, in a one-to-one fashion, often (but not always) by means of an involution operation: if the dual of A is B, then the dual of B is A.

  5. Coherent duality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coherent_duality

    In mathematics, coherent duality is any of a number of generalisations of Serre duality, applying to coherent sheaves, in algebraic geometry and complex manifold theory, as well as some aspects of commutative algebra that are part of the 'local' theory.

  6. Dual (category theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_(category_theory)

    In category theory, a branch of mathematics, duality is a correspondence between the properties of a category C and the dual properties of the opposite category C op.Given a statement regarding the category C, by interchanging the source and target of each morphism as well as interchanging the order of composing two morphisms, a corresponding dual statement is obtained regarding the opposite ...

  7. Duality (optimization) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duality_(optimization)

    The duality gap is zero if and only if strong duality holds. Otherwise the gap is strictly positive and weak duality holds. [5] In computational optimization, another "duality gap" is often reported, which is the difference in value between any dual solution and the value of a feasible but suboptimal iterate for the primal problem.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_system

    In mathematics, a dual system, dual pair or a duality over a field is a triple (,,) consisting of two vector spaces, and , over and a non-degenerate bilinear map:. In mathematics , duality is the study of dual systems and is important in functional analysis .

  9. Category:Duality theories - Wikipedia

    Mathematics portal; The idea of mathematical duality was first noticed as projective duality. There it appears as the idea of interchanging dimension k and codimension k+1 in propositions of projective geometry. A large number of duality theories have now been created in mathematics, ranging as far as optimization theory and theoretical physics.
