  2. Complex conjugate root theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_conjugate_root_theorem

    The non-real factors come in pairs which when multiplied give quadratic polynomials with real coefficients. Since every polynomial with complex coefficients can be factored into 1st-degree factors (that is one way of stating the fundamental theorem of algebra ), it follows that every polynomial with real coefficients can be factored into ...

  3. Binary Golay code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_Golay_code

    A partition of the 6 columns into 3 pairs of adjacent ones constitutes a trio. This is a partition into 3 octad sets. A subgroup, the projective special linear group PSL(2,7) x S 3 of a trio subgroup of M 24 is useful for generating a basis. PSL(2,7) permutes the octads internally, in parallel. S 3 permutes the 3 octads bodily.

  4. Mapping class group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mapping_class_group

    If K ⊂ S 3 is a knot or a link, the symmetry group of the knot (resp. link) is defined to be the mapping class group of the pair (S 3, K). The symmetry group of a hyperbolic knot is known to be dihedral or cyclic ; moreover every dihedral and cyclic group can be realized as symmetry groups of knots.

  5. Quotient ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quotient_ring

    In ring theory, a branch of abstract algebra, a quotient ring, also known as factor ring, difference ring [1] or residue class ring, is a construction quite similar to the quotient group in group theory and to the quotient space in linear algebra. [2] [3] It is a specific example of a quotient, as viewed from the general setting of universal ...

  6. Factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

    In mathematics, factorization (or factorisation, see English spelling differences) or factoring consists of writing a number or another mathematical object as a product of several factors, usually smaller or simpler objects of the same kind. For example, 3 × 5 is an integer factorization of 15, and (x – 2)(x + 2) is a polynomial ...

  7. Adjoint functors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjoint_functors

    Each pair (GX, ε X) is a terminal morphism from F to X in C; Each pair (FY, η Y) is an initial morphism from Y to G in D; In particular, the equations above allow one to define Φ, ε, and η in terms of any one of the three. However, the adjoint functors F and G alone are in general not sufficient to determine the adjunction. The equivalence ...

  8. Galois connection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galois_connection

    For an order-theoretic example, let U be some set, and let A and B both be the power set of U, ordered by inclusion. Pick a fixed subset L of U. Then the maps F and G, where F(M ) = L ∩ M, and G(N ) = N ∪ (U \ L), form a monotone Galois connection, with F being the lower adjoint.

  9. Riemannian connection on a surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemannian_connection_on_a...

    The adjoint action of SU(2) factors through its centre, the matrices ± I. Under these identifications, SU(2) is exhibited as a double cover of SO(3), so that SO(3) = SU(2) / ± I . [ 48 ] On the other hand, SU(2) is diffeomorphic to the 3-sphere and under this identification the standard Riemannian metric on the 3-sphere becomes the ...
