  2. Involution (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Any involution is a bijection.. The identity map is a trivial example of an involution. Examples of nontrivial involutions include negation (x ↦ −x), reciprocation (x ↦ 1/x), and complex conjugation (z ↦ z) in arithmetic; reflection, half-turn rotation, and circle inversion in geometry; complementation in set theory; and reciprocal ciphers such as the ROT13 transformation and the ...

  3. Dagger category - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dagger_category

    In this example, a self-adjoint morphism is a symmetric relation. The category Cob of cobordisms is a dagger compact category , in particular it possesses a dagger structure. The category Hilb of Hilbert spaces also possesses a dagger structure: Given a bounded linear map f : A → B {\displaystyle f:A\rightarrow B} , the map f † : B → A ...

  4. T-norm fuzzy logics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-norm_fuzzy_logics

    Involutive negation (unary) can be added as an additional negation to t-norm logics whose residual negation is not itself involutive, that is, if it does not obey the law of double negation . A t-norm logic L {\displaystyle L} expanded with involutive negation is usually denoted by L ∼ {\displaystyle L_{\sim }} and called L {\displaystyle L ...

  5. Involutory matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Involutory_matrix

    In mathematics, an involutory matrix is a square matrix that is its own inverse. That is, multiplication by the matrix A n × n {\displaystyle {\mathbf {A}}_{n\times n}} is an involution if and only if A 2 = I , {\displaystyle {\mathbf {A}}^{2}={\mathbf {I}},} where I {\displaystyle {\mathbf {I}}} is the n × n {\displaystyle n\times n ...

  6. Negation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negation

    As a further example, negation can be defined in terms of NAND and can also be defined in terms of NOR. Algebraically, classical negation corresponds to complementation in a Boolean algebra, and intuitionistic negation to pseudocomplementation in a Heyting algebra. These algebras provide a semantics for classical and intuitionistic logic.

  7. Involute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Involute

    In mathematics, an involute (also known as an evolvent) is a particular type of curve that is dependent on another shape or curve. An involute of a curve is the locus of a point on a piece of taut string as the string is either unwrapped from or wrapped around the curve.

  8. Antihomomorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antihomomorphism

    It is frequently the case that antiautomorphisms are involutions, i.e. the square of the antiautomorphism is the identity map; these are also called involutive antiautomorphism s. For example, in any group the map that sends x to its inverse x −1 is an involutive antiautomorphism.

  9. T-norm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-norm

    As the standard negator is used in the above definition of a t-norm/t-conorm pair, this can be generalized as follows: A De Morgan triplet is a triple (T,⊥,n) such that [1] T is a t-norm; ⊥ is a t-conorm according to the axiomatic definition of t-conorms as mentioned above; n is a strong negator
