  2. Norm (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, a norm is a function from a real or complex vector space to the non-negative real numbers that behaves in certain ways like the distance from the origin: it commutes with scaling, obeys a form of the triangle inequality, and zero is only at the origin.

    See § Brackets for examples of use. Most symbols have two printed versions. They can be displayed as Unicode characters, or in LaTeX format. With the Unicode version, using search engines and copy-pasting are easier. On the other hand, the LaTeX rendering is often much better (more aesthetic), and is generally considered a standard in mathematics.

  4. Hilbert symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert_symbol

    The Hilbert symbol can also be used to denote the central simple algebra over K with basis 1,i,j,k and multiplication rules =, =, = =.In this case the algebra represents an element of order 2 in the Brauer group of K, which is identified with -1 if it is a division algebra and +1 if it is isomorphic to the algebra of 2 by 2 matrices.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mores

    Mores (/ ˈ m ɔːr eɪ z /, sometimes / ˈ m ɔːr iː z /; [1] from Latin mōrēs [ˈmoːreːs], plural form of singular mōs, meaning "manner, custom, usage, or habit") are social norms that are widely observed within a particular society or culture. [2] Mores determine what is considered morally acceptable or unacceptable within any given ...

  6. Norm (group) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norm_(group)

    In mathematics, in the field of group theory, the norm of a group is the intersection of the normalizers of all its subgroups. This is also termed the Baer norm, after Reinhold Baer. The following facts are true for the Baer norm: It is a characteristic subgroup. It contains the center of the group.

  7. Operator norm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operator_norm

    In mathematics, the operator norm measures the "size" of certain linear operators by assigning each a real number called its operator norm. Formally, it is a norm defined on the space of bounded linear operators between two given normed vector spaces .

  8. Help:Displaying a formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Displaying_a_formula

    The code for the math example reads: <math display= "inline" > \sum_{i=0}^\infty 2^{-i} </math> The quotation marks around inline are optional and display=inline is also valid. [2] Technically, the command \textstyle will be added to the user input before the TeX command is passed to the renderer. The result will be displayed without further ...

  9. Young's convolution inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young's_convolution_inequality

    An example application is that Young's inequality can be used to show that the heat semigroup is a contracting semigroup using the norm (that is, the Weierstrass transform does not enlarge the norm). Proof
