  2. Opposite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opposite

    The term antonym (and the related antonymy) is commonly taken to be synonymous with opposite, but antonym also has other more restricted meanings. Graded (or gradable) antonyms are word pairs whose meanings are opposite and which lie on a continuous spectrum (hot, cold).

  3. Opposite group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opposite_group

    g 1, g 2 denotes the ordered pair of the two group elements. *' can be viewed as the naturally induced addition of +. In group theory , a branch of mathematics , an opposite group is a way to construct a group from another group that allows one to define right action as a special case of left action .

  4. Bergman's diamond lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bergman's_diamond_lemma

    In mathematics, specifically the field of abstract algebra, Bergman's Diamond Lemma (after George Bergman) is a method for confirming whether a given set of monomials of an algebra forms a -basis. It is an extension of Gröbner bases to non-commutative rings. The proof of the lemma gives rise to an algorithm for obtaining a non-commutative ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contronym

    In Spanish dar (basic meaning "to give"), when applied to lessons or subjects, can mean "to teach", "to take classes" or "to recite", depending on the context. [22] Similarly with the French verb apprendre , which usually means "to learn" but may refer to the action of teaching someone. [ 23 ]

    2. Denotes the additive inverse and is read as minus, the negative of, or the opposite of; for example, –2. 3. Also used in place of \ for denoting the set-theoretic complement; see \ in § Set theory. × (multiplication sign) 1. In elementary arithmetic, denotes multiplication, and is read as times; for example, 3 × 2. 2.

  7. Normal basis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_basis

    The classical normal basis theorem states that there is an element such that {():} forms a basis of K, considered as a vector space over F. That is, any element α ∈ K {\displaystyle \alpha \in K} can be written uniquely as α = ∑ g ∈ G a g g ( β ) {\textstyle \alpha =\sum _{g\in G}a_{g}\,g(\beta )} for some elements a g ∈ F ...

  8. Basis function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basis_function

    The monomial basis also forms a basis for the vector space of polynomials. After all, every polynomial can be written as a 0 + a 1 x 1 + a 2 x 2 + ⋯ + a n x n {\displaystyle a_{0}+a_{1}x^{1}+a_{2}x^{2}+\cdots +a_{n}x^{n}} for some n ∈ N {\displaystyle n\in \mathbb {N} } , which is a linear combination of monomials.

  9. Dual basis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_basis

    The association of a dual basis with a basis gives a map from the space of bases of V to the space of bases of V ∗, and this is also an isomorphism. For topological fields such as the real numbers, the space of duals is a topological space , and this gives a homeomorphism between the Stiefel manifolds of bases of these spaces.
