  2. Mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics

    Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, theories and theorems that are developed and proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself.

  3. Portal:Mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Mathematics

    Mathematics is the study of representing and reasoning about abstract objects (such as numbers, points, spaces, sets, structures, and games).Mathematics is used throughout the world as an essential tool in many fields, including natural science, engineering, medicine, and the social sciences.

  4. Upper and lower bounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper_and_lower_bounds

    For example, 5 is a lower bound for the set S = {5, 8, 42, 34, 13934} (as a subset of the integers or of the real numbers, etc.), and so is 4.On the other hand, 6 is not a lower bound for S since it is not smaller than every element in S.

  5. Mathematical sciences - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_sciences

    The mathematical sciences are a group of areas of study that includes, in addition to mathematics, those academic disciplines that are primarily mathematical in nature but may not be universally considered subfields of mathematics proper.

  6. Glossary of mathematical jargon - Wikipedia

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

    The language of mathematics has a wide vocabulary of specialist and technical terms. It also has a certain amount of jargon: commonly used phrases which are part of the culture of mathematics, rather than of the subject.

  7. Mathematical markup language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_markup_language

    A mathematical markup language is a computer notation for representing mathematical formulae, based on mathematical notation.Specialized markup languages are necessary because computers normally deal with linear text and more limited character sets (although increasing support for Unicode is obsoleting very simple uses).

  8. Discrete mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_mathematics

    Graphs such as these are among the objects studied by discrete mathematics, for their interesting mathematical properties, their usefulness as models of real-world problems, and their importance in developing computer algorithms.

  9. Mathematical logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_logic

    Mathematical logic is the study of formal logic within mathematics.Major subareas include model theory, proof theory, set theory, and recursion theory (also known as computability theory).
