  3. Theory of equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_equations

    Since then algebra has been dramatically enlarged to include many new subareas, and the theory of algebraic equations receives much less attention. Thus, the term "theory of equations" is mainly used in the context of the history of mathematics, to avoid confusion between old and new meanings of "algebra".

  4. Class number formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class_number_formula

    The idea of the proof of the class number formula is most easily seen when K = Q(i).In this case, the ring of integers in K is the Gaussian integers.. An elementary manipulation shows that the residue of the Dedekind zeta function at s = 1 is the average of the coefficients of the Dirichlet series representation of the Dedekind zeta function.

    CRC Standard Mathematical Tables (also CRC Standard Mathematical Tables and Formulas or SMTF) is a comprehensive one-volume handbook containing a fundamental working knowledge of mathematics and tables of formulas.

  6. Algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebra

    Algebra is the branch of mathematics that studies certain abstract systems, known as algebraic structures, and the manipulation of expressions within those systems. It is a generalization of arithmetic that introduces variables and algebraic operations other than the standard arithmetic operations, such as addition and multiplication.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_mathematical...

    A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula. As formulas are entirely constituted with symbols of various types, many symbols are needed for ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics

    Although mathematics is extensively used for modeling phenomena, the fundamental truths of mathematics are independent of any scientific experimentation. Some areas of mathematics, such as statistics and game theory , are developed in close correlation with their applications and are often grouped under applied mathematics .

  9. Mathematical notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_notation

    Mathematical notation is widely used in mathematics, science, and engineering for representing complex concepts and properties in a concise, unambiguous, and accurate way. For example, the physicist Albert Einstein 's formula E = m c 2 {\displaystyle E=mc^{2}} is the quantitative representation in mathematical notation of mass–energy ...
