Onomastics (or onomatology in older texts) is the study of proper names, including their etymology, history, and use.. An alethonym ('true name') or an orthonym ('real name') is the proper name of the object in question, the object of onomastic study.
In mathematics, Gauss congruence is a property held by certain sequences of integers, including the Lucas numbers and the divisor sum sequence. Sequences satisfying this property are also known as Dold sequences, Fermat sequences, Newton sequences, and realizable sequences. [ 1 ]
Congruence [ edit ] If A , B are two points on a line a , and if A ′ is a point upon the same or another line a ′, then, upon a given side of A ′ on the straight line a ′, we can always find a point B ′ so that the segment AB is congruent to the segment A ′ B ′.
Clement's congruence-based theorem characterizes the twin primes pairs of the form (, +) through the following conditions: [()! +] ((+)), +P. A. Clement's original 1949 paper [2] provides a proof of this interesting elementary number theoretic criteria for twin primality based on Wilson's theorem.
The International Council of Onomastic Sciences (ICOS) is an international academic organization of scholars with a special interest in onomastics, the scientific study of names (e.g. place-names, personal names, and proper names of all other kinds). The official languages of ICOS are English, French, and German.
Latinisation (or Latinization) [1] of names, also known as onomastic Latinisation (or onomastic Latinization), is the practice of rendering a non-Latin name in a modern Latin style. [1] It is commonly found with historical proper names , including personal names and toponyms , and in the standard binomial nomenclature of the life sciences.
Socio-onomastics is the study of names through a sociolinguistic lens, and is part of the broader topic of onomastics.Socio-onomastics 'examines the use and variety of names through methods that demonstrate the social, cultural, and situational conditions in name usage'. [1]
The lattice Con(A) of all congruence relations on an algebra A is algebraic. John M. Howie described how semigroup theory illustrates congruence relations in universal algebra: In a group a congruence is determined if we know a single congruence class, in particular if we know the normal subgroup which is the class containing the identity.
