  2. Norm (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, a norm is a function from a real or complex vector space to the non-negative real numbers that behaves in certain ways like the distance from the origin: it commutes with scaling, obeys a form of the triangle inequality, and is zero only at the origin.

  3. Matrix norm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_norm

    Suppose a vector norm ‖ ‖ on and a vector norm ‖ ‖ on are given. Any matrix A induces a linear operator from to with respect to the standard basis, and one defines the corresponding induced norm or operator norm or subordinate norm on the space of all matrices as follows: ‖ ‖, = {‖ ‖: ‖ ‖ =} = {‖ ‖ ‖ ‖:}. where denotes the supremum.

  4. Normed vector space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normed_vector_space

    In mathematics, a normed vector space or normed space is a vector space over the real or complex numbers on which a norm is defined. [1] A norm is a generalization of the intuitive notion of "length" in the physical world.

  5. Operator norm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operator_norm

    In mathematics, the operator norm measures the "size" of certain linear operators by assigning each a real number called its operator norm. Formally, it is a norm defined on the space of bounded linear operators between two given normed vector spaces .

  6. Uniform norm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_norm

    Restricting this extended norm to the bounded functions (i.e., the functions with finite above extended norm) yields a (finite-valued) norm, called the uniform norm on . Note that the definition of uniform norm does not rely on any additional structure on the set X {\displaystyle X} , although in practice X {\displaystyle X} is often at least a ...

  7. Ideal norm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_norm

    In commutative algebra, the norm of an ideal is a generalization of a norm of an element in the field extension.It is particularly important in number theory since it measures the size of an ideal of a complicated number ring in terms of an ideal in a less complicated ring.

  8. Absolute value (algebra) - Wikipedia

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

    The standard absolute value on the integers. The standard absolute value on the complex numbers.; The p-adic absolute value on the rational numbers.; If R is the field of rational functions over a field F and () is a fixed irreducible polynomial over F, then the following defines an absolute value on R: for () in R define | | to be , where () = () and ((), ()) = = ((), ()).

  9. Norm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norm

    Operator norm, a map that assigns a length or size to any operator in a function space; Norm (abelian group), a map that assigns a length or size to any element of an abelian group; Field norm a map in algebraic number theory and Galois theory that generalizes the usual distance norm; Ideal norm, the ideal-theoretic generalization of the field norm
