  2. Monotonic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monotonic_function

    A constant function is both monotone and antitone; conversely, if f is both monotone and antitone, and if the domain of f is a lattice, then f must be constant. Monotone functions are central in order theory. They appear in most articles on the subject and examples from special applications are found in these places.

  3. Galois connection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galois_connection

    Then F and G form a monotone Galois connection between the power set of X and the power set of Y, both ordered by inclusion ⊆. There is a further adjoint pair in this situation: for a subset M of X, define H(M) = {y ∈ Y | f −1 {y} ⊆ M}. Then G and H form a monotone Galois connection between the power set of Y and the power set of X.

Spanish orthography is the orthography used in the Spanish language.The alphabet uses the Latin script.The spelling is fairly phonemic, especially in comparison to more opaque orthographies like English, having a relatively consistent mapping of graphemes to phonemes; in other words, the pronunciation of a given Spanish-language word can largely be ...
