  2. Thompson groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thompson_groups

    The Thompson group F is generated by operations like this on binary trees. Here L and T are nodes, but A B and R can be replaced by more general trees.. The group F also has realizations in terms of operations on ordered rooted binary trees, and as a subgroup of the piecewise linear homeomorphisms of the unit interval that preserve orientation and whose non-differentiable points are dyadic ...

  3. F-algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-algebra

    Going one step ahead of universal algebra, most algebraic structures are F-algebras. For example, abelian groups are F-algebras for the same functor F(G) = 1 + G + G×G as for groups, with an additional axiom for commutativity: m∘t = m, where t(x,y) = (y,x) is the transpose on GxG. Monoids are F-algebras of signature F(M) = 1 + M×M.

  4. Type–token distinction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type–token_distinction

    The type–token distinction separates types (abstract descriptive concepts) from tokens (objects that instantiate concepts). For example, in the sentence "the bicycle is becoming more popular" the word bicycle represents the abstract concept of bicycles and this abstract concept is a type, whereas in the sentence "the bicycle is in the garage", it represents a particular object and this ...

  5. Function composition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_composition

    If an airplane's altitude at time t is a(t), and the air pressure at altitude x is p(x), then (p ∘ a)(t) is the pressure around the plane at time t. Function defined on finite sets which change the order of their elements such as permutations can be composed on the same set, this being composition of permutations.

  6. Tokenization (data security) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokenization_(data_security)

    The mapping from original data to a token uses methods that render tokens infeasible to reverse in the absence of the tokenization system, for example using tokens created from random numbers. [3] A one-way cryptographic function is used to convert the original data into tokens, making it difficult to recreate the original data without ...

  7. Farey sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farey_sequence

    Thus the first term to appear between ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ and ⁠ 2 / 5 ⁠ is ⁠ 3 / 8 ⁠, which appears in F 8. The total number of Farey neighbour pairs in F n is 2| F n | − 3. The Stern–Brocot tree is a data structure showing how the sequence is built up from 0 (= ⁠ 0 / 1 ⁠) and 1 (= ⁠ 1 / 1 ⁠), by taking successive mediants.

  8. Token coin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Token_coin

    Brass trade token from Fort Laramie, Dakota Territory. Most such tokens show the issuer's full name or initials. Where initials were shown, it was common practice to show three initials: the first names of husband and wife and their surname. Tokens would also normally indicate the merchant establishment, either by name or by picture.

  9. System F - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_F

    System F <:, pronounced "F-sub", is an extension of system F with subtyping. System F <: has been of central importance to programming language theory since the 1980s [ citation needed ] because the core of functional programming languages , like those in the ML family, support both parametric polymorphism and record subtyping, which can be ...
