  2. Identity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Visual proof of the Pythagorean identity: for any angle , the point (,) = (⁡, ⁡) lies on the unit circle, which satisfies the equation + =.Thus, ⁡ + ⁡ =. In mathematics, an identity is an equality relating one mathematical expression A to another mathematical expression B, such that A and B (which might contain some variables) produce the same value for all values of the variables ...

  3. Quotient group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quotient_group

    Indeed, if is not closed then the quotient space is not a T1-space (since there is a coset in the quotient which cannot be separated from the identity by an open set), and thus not a Hausdorff space. For a non-normal Lie subgroup ⁠ N {\displaystyle N} ⁠ , the space G / N {\displaystyle G\,/\,N} of left cosets is not a group, but simply a ...

  4. Polynomial identity testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_identity_testing

    In mathematics, polynomial identity testing (PIT) is the problem of efficiently determining whether two multivariate polynomials are identical. More formally, a PIT algorithm is given an arithmetic circuit that computes a polynomial p in a field , and decides whether p is the zero polynomial.

    A matrix polynomial equation is an equality between two matrix polynomials, which holds for the specific matrices in question. A matrix polynomial identity is a matrix polynomial equation which holds for all matrices A in a specified matrix ring M n (R).

  6. Complex number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_number

    For example, the equation (+) = has no real solution, because the square of a real number cannot be negative, but has the two nonreal complex solutions + and . Addition, subtraction and multiplication of complex numbers can be naturally defined by using the rule i 2 = − 1 {\displaystyle i^{2}=-1} along with the associative , commutative , and ...

  7. List of logarithmic identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_logarithmic_identities

    For example, two numbers can be multiplied just by using a logarithm table and adding. These are often known as logarithmic properties, which are documented in the table below. [ 2 ] The first three operations below assume that x = b c and/or y = b d , so that log b ( x ) = c and log b ( y ) = d .

  8. Multiplicative group of integers modulo n - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative_group_of...

    Integer multiplication respects the congruence classes, that is, a ≡ a' and b ≡ b' (mod n) implies ab ≡ a'b' (mod n). This implies that the multiplication is associative, commutative, and that the class of 1 is the unique multiplicative identity. Finally, given a, the multiplicative inverse of a modulo n is an integer x satisfying ax ≡ ...

  9. Multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication

    For example, multiplying the lengths (in meters or feet) of the two sides of a rectangle gives its area (in square meters or square feet). Such a product is the subject of dimensional analysis. The inverse operation of multiplication is division. For example, since 4 multiplied by 3 equals 12, 12 divided by 3 equals 4.
