    In prime factorization, the multiplicity of a prime factor is its -adic valuation.For example, the prime factorization of the integer 60 is . 60 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5, the multiplicity of the prime factor 2 is 2, while the multiplicity of each of the prime factors 3 and 5 is 1.

  3. Budan's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budan's_theorem

    In mathematics, Budan's theorem is a theorem for bounding the number of real roots of a polynomial in an interval, and computing the parity of this number. It was published in 1807 by François Budan de Boislaurent. A similar theorem was published independently by Joseph Fourier in 1820. Each of these theorems is a corollary of the other.

    The most basic example is the p-adic valuation ν p associated to a prime integer p, on the rational numbers =, with valuation ring = (), where is the localization of at the prime ideal (). The valuation group is the additive integers Γ = Z . {\displaystyle \Gamma =\mathbb {Z} .}

  5. Multiplicity (philosophy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicity_(philosophy)

    Multiplicity (French: multiplicité) is a philosophical concept developed by Edmund Husserl and Henri Bergson from Riemann's description of the mathematical concept. [1] In his essay The Idea of Duration, Bergson discusses multiplicity in light of the notion of unity. Whereas a unity refers to a given thing in as far as it is a whole ...

    Multiplicity (informatics), a type of relationship in class diagrams for Unified Modeling Language used in software engineering; Multiplicity (mathematics), the number of times an element is repeated in a multiset; Multiplicity (software), a software application which allows a user to control two or more computers from one mouse and keyboard

  7. Serre's multiplicity conjectures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serre's_multiplicity...

    In mathematics, Serre's multiplicity conjectures, named after Jean-Pierre Serre, are certain problems in commutative algebra, motivated by the needs of algebraic geometry. Since André Weil 's initial definition of intersection numbers , around 1949, there had been a question of how to provide a more flexible and computable theory, which Serre ...

  8. 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 ...

  9. Multiset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiset

    In mathematics, a multiset (or bag, or mset) is a modification of the concept of a set that, unlike a set, [1] allows for multiple instances for each of its elements.The number of instances given for each element is called the multiplicity of that element in the multiset.
