  2. List of small groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_small_groups

    Each group is named by Small Groups library as G o i, where o is the order of the group, and i is the index used to label the group within that order.. Common group names: Z n: the cyclic group of order n (the notation C n is also used; it is isomorphic to the additive group of Z/nZ)

  3. Recognition-by-components theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recognition-by-components...

    The recognition-by-components theory suggests that there are fewer than 36 geons which are combined to create the objects we see in day-to-day life. [3] For example, when looking at a mug we break it down into two components – "cylinder" and "handle". This also works for more complex objects, which in turn are made up of a larger number of geons.

  4. Principles of grouping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principles_of_grouping

    Even if the shapes, sizes, and objects are radically different, they will appear as a group if they are close. Refers to the way smaller elements are "assembled" in a composition. Also called "grouping", the principle concerns the effect generated when the collective presence of the set of elements becomes more meaningful than their presence as ...

  5. Internal category - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_category

    In mathematics, more specifically in category theory, internal categories are a generalisation of the notion of small category, and are defined with respect to a fixed ambient category. If the ambient category is taken to be the category of sets then one recovers the theory of small categories. In general, internal categories consist of a pair ...

  6. Microscopic scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microscopic_scale

    Amongst light microscopes, the utilised objective lens dictates how small of an object can be seen. These varying objective lenses can change the resolving power of the microscope, which determines the shortest distance that somebody is able to distinguish two separate objects through that microscope lens.

    However, NGC 3414 (Arp 162) appears to be merely an unusual S0 galaxy with a very small disk relative to its bulge size. [4] NGC 4670 (Arp 163) is a blue compact dwarf galaxy with extremely strong star formation activity ; [ 31 ] it is clearly too small to be the merger remnant of two spiral galaxies like the other merger remnants in this ...

  8. Packing problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_problems

    A container, usually a two- or three-dimensional convex region, possibly of infinite size. Multiple containers may be given depending on the problem. A set of objects, some or all of which must be packed into one or more containers. The set may contain different objects with their sizes specified, or a single object of a fixed dimension that ...

  9. Macroscopic scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macroscopic_scale

    Daily experiences of matter and the Universe are characterized by very low energy. For example, the photon energy of visible light is about 1.8 to 3.2 eV. Similarly, the bond-dissociation energy of a carbon-carbon bond is about 3.6 eV. This is the energy scale manifesting at the macroscopic level, such as in chemical reactions.
