  2. Characterization (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Just as in chemistry, the characteristic property of a material will serve to identify a sample, or in the study of materials, structures and properties will determine characterization, in mathematics there is a continual effort to express properties that will distinguish a desired feature in a theory or system. Characterization is not unique ...

  3. Variable and attribute (research) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_and_attribute...

    For example see: Binary option) While an attribute is often intuitive, the variable is the operationalized way in which the attribute is represented for further data processing . In data processing data are often represented by a combination of items (objects organized in rows), and multiple variables (organized in columns).

  4. Mathematical structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_structure

    In mathematics, a structure on a set (or on some sets) refers to providing it (or them) with certain additional features (e.g. an operation, relation, metric, or topology). Τhe additional features are attached or related to the set (or to the sets), so as to provide it (or them) with some additional meaning or significance.

  5. Characteristic (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_(algebra)

    For example, if p is prime and q(X) is an irreducible polynomial with coefficients in the field with p elements, then the quotient ring [] / (()) is a field of characteristic p. Another example: The field C {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} } of complex numbers contains Z {\displaystyle \mathbb {Z} } , so the characteristic of C {\displaystyle \mathbb ...

  6. List of mathematical examples - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_examples

    This page will attempt to list examples in mathematics. To qualify for inclusion, an article should be about a mathematical object with a fair amount of concreteness. Usually a definition of an abstract concept, a theorem, or a proof would not be an "example" as the term should be understood here (an elegant proof of an isolated but particularly striking fact, as opposed to a proof of a ...

  7. Multiple representations (mathematics education) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_representations...

    The use of multiple representations supports and requires tasks that involve decision-making and other problem-solving skills. [2] [3] [4] The choice of which representation to use, the task of making representations given other representations, and the understanding of how changes in one representation affect others are examples of such mathematically sophisticated activities.

  8. Hypercalculia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercalculia

    A study published in 2014 examined the reading and math achievement profiles and their changes over time within a sample of children between the ages 6–9 diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder. What they found was that there are four distinct achievement profiles: higher-achieving (39%), hyperlexia (9%), hypercalculia (20%) and lower ...

  9. Character (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, a character is (most commonly) a special kind of function from a group to a field (such as the complex numbers). There are at least two distinct, but overlapping meanings. [1] Other uses of the word "character" are almost always qualified.
