2. Multiplicative character - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative_character

   In mathematics, a multiplicative character (or linear character, or simply character) on a group G is a group homomorphism from G to the multiplicative group of a field , usually the field of complex numbers. If G is any group, then the set Ch(G) of these morphisms forms an abelian group under pointwise multiplication.

3. Multiplication and repeated addition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication_and...

   Multiplication is often defined for natural numbers, then extended to whole numbers, fractions, and irrational numbers. However, abstract algebra has a more general definition of multiplication as a binary operation on some objects that may or may not be numbers. Notably, one can multiply complex numbers, vectors, matrices, and quaternions.

4. Complex multiplication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_multiplication

   In mathematics, complex multiplication (CM) is the theory of elliptic curves E that have an endomorphism ring larger than the integers. [1] Put another way, it contains the theory of elliptic functions with extra symmetries, such as are visible when the period lattice is the Gaussian integer lattice or Eisenstein integer lattice.

5. Complex number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_number

   Addition, subtraction and multiplication of complex numbers can be naturally defined by using the rule = along with the associative, commutative, and distributive laws. Every nonzero complex number has a multiplicative inverse. This makes the complex numbers a field with the real numbers as a subfield.

6. Complex multiplier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_multiplier

   The complex multiplier is the multiplier principle in Keynesian economics (formulated by John Maynard Keynes).The simplistic multiplier that is the reciprocal of the marginal propensity to save is a special case used for illustrative purposes only.

7. Complex conjugate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_conjugate

   In mathematics, the complex conjugate of a complex number is the number with an equal real part and an imaginary part equal in magnitude but opposite in sign. That is, if a {\displaystyle a} and b {\displaystyle b} are real numbers, then the complex conjugate of a + b i {\displaystyle a+bi} is a − b i . {\displaystyle a-bi.}

8. Matrix (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   under which addition and multiplication of complex numbers and matrices correspond to each other. For example, 2-by-2 rotation matrices represent the multiplication with some complex number of absolute value 1, as above. A similar interpretation is possible for quaternions [77] and Clifford algebras in general.

9. Euler's formula - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_formula

   In fact, the same proof shows that Euler's formula is even valid for all complex numbers x. A point in the complex plane can be represented by a complex number written in cartesian coordinates. Euler's formula provides a means of conversion between cartesian coordinates and polar coordinates. The polar form simplifies the mathematics when used ...
