  3. Hall's marriage theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall's_marriage_theorem

    hide. In mathematics, Hall's marriage theorem, proved by Philip Hall (1935), is a theorem with two equivalent formulations. In each case, the theorem gives a necessary and sufficient condition for an object to exist: The combinatorial formulation answers whether a finite collection of sets has a transversal —that is, whether an element can be ...

    The blue line is the common solution to two of these equations. Linear algebra is the branch of mathematics concerning linear equations such as: linear maps such as: and their representations in vector spaces and through matrices. [1][2][3] Linear algebra is central to almost all areas of mathematics. For instance, linear algebra is fundamental ...

    Hall algebra. For the more general Hall algebra of a category, see Ringel–Hall algebra. In mathematics, the Hall algebra is an associative algebra with a basis corresponding to isomorphism classes of finite abelian p -groups. It was first discussed by Steinitz (1901) but forgotten until it was rediscovered by Philip Hall (1959), both of whom ...

  8. Foundations of mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundations_of_mathematics

    e. Foundations of mathematics are the logical and mathematical framework that allows the development of mathematics without generating self-contradictory theories, and, in particular, to have reliable concepts of theorems, proofs, algorithms, etc. This may also include the philosophical study of the relation of this framework with reality.
