  2. Invariant (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    This one is invariant under horizontal and vertical translation, as well as rotation by 180° (but not under reflection). In mathematics, an invariant is a property of a mathematical object (or a class of mathematical objects) which remains unchanged after operations or transformations of a certain type are applied to the objects.

  3. Invariant theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invariant_theory

    Invariant theory is a branch of abstract algebra dealing with actions of groups ... "Über die vollen Invariantensysteme (On Full Invariant Systems)", Math. Annalen ...

  4. Arnold invariants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnold_invariants

    The + and invariants keep track of how curves change under these transformations and deformations. The + invariant increases by 2 when a direct self-tangency move creates new self-intersection points (and decreases by 2 when such points are eliminated), while decreases by 2 when an inverse self-tangency move creates new intersections (and increases by 2 when they are eliminated).

  5. Invariants of tensors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invariants_of_tensors

    In mathematics, in the fields of multilinear algebra and representation theory, the principal invariants of the second rank tensor are the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial [1]

  6. j-invariant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J-invariant

    Klein's j-invariant in the complex plane. In mathematics, Felix Klein's j-invariant or j function, regarded as a function of a complex variable τ, is a modular function of weight zero for special linear group SL(2, Z) defined on the upper half-plane of complex numbers.

  7. Covariance and contravariance of vectors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covariance_and_contra...

    The single, scalar value of mass is independent to changes in basis vectors and consequently is called invariant. The magnitude of a vector (such as distance ) is another example of an invariant, because it remains fixed even if geometrical vector components vary.

  8. Fixed point (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, a fixed point (sometimes shortened to fixpoint), also known as an invariant point, is a value that does not change under a given transformation. Specifically, for functions, a fixed point is an element that is mapped to itself by the function. Any set of fixed points of a transformation is also an invariant set.

  9. Invariant measure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invariant_measure

    In mathematics, an invariant measure is a measure that is preserved by some function. The function may be a geometric transformation . For examples, circular angle is invariant under rotation, hyperbolic angle is invariant under squeeze mapping , and a difference of slopes is invariant under shear mapping .
