In mathematics education, Finite Mathematics is a syllabus in college and university mathematics that is independent of calculus. A course in precalculus may be a prerequisite for Finite Mathematics.
In mathematics, Fredholm operators are certain operators that arise in the Fredholm theory of integral equations.They are named in honour of Erik Ivar Fredholm.By definition, a Fredholm operator is a bounded linear operator T : X → Y between two Banach spaces with finite-dimensional kernel and finite-dimensional (algebraic) cokernel = / , and with closed range .
An important ingredient in the calculus on finite weighted graphs is the mimicking of standard differential operators from the continuum setting in the discrete setting of finite weighted graphs. This allows one to translate well-studied tools from mathematics, such as partial differential equations and variational methods, and make them usable ...
Finite element exterior calculus (FEEC) is a mathematical framework that formulates finite element methods using chain complexes. Its main application has been a comprehensive theory for finite element methods in computational electromagnetism , computational solid and fluid mechanics.
Roland "Ron" Edwin Larson (born October 31, 1941) is a professor of mathematics at Penn State Erie, The Behrend College, Pennsylvania. [1] He is best known for being the author of a series of widely used mathematics textbooks ranging from middle school through the second year of college.
Any finite natural number can be used in at least two ways: as an ordinal and as a cardinal. Cardinal numbers specify the size of sets (e.g., a bag of five marbles), whereas ordinal numbers specify the order of a member within an ordered set [9] (e.g., "the third man from the left" or "the twenty-seventh day of January").
Discrete mathematics is the study of mathematical structures that can be considered "discrete" (in a way analogous to discrete variables, having a bijection with the set of natural numbers) rather than "continuous" (analogously to continuous functions). Objects studied in discrete mathematics include integers, graphs, and statements in logic.
In mathematics, a translation plane is a projective plane which admits a certain group of symmetries (described below). Along with the Hughes planes and the Figueroa planes, translation planes are among the most well-studied of the known non-Desarguesian planes, and the vast majority of known non-Desarguesian planes are either translation planes, or can be obtained from a translation plane via ...
