In mathematics, an embedding (or imbedding [1]) is one instance of some mathematical structure contained within another instance, such as a group that is a subgroup. When some object X {\displaystyle X} is said to be embedded in another object Y {\displaystyle Y} , the embedding is given by some injective and structure-preserving map f : X → ...
An embedded graph uniquely defines cyclic orders of edges incident to the same vertex. The set of all these cyclic orders is called a rotation system.Embeddings with the same rotation system are considered to be equivalent and the corresponding equivalence class of embeddings is called combinatorial embedding (as opposed to the term topological embedding, which refers to the previous ...
The embedding of X into Y is a compact operator: any bounded set in X is totally bounded in Y, i.e. every sequence in such a bounded set has a subsequence that is Cauchy in the norm ||•|| Y. If Y is a Banach space, an equivalent definition is that the embedding operator (the identity) i : X → Y is a compact operator.
A smooth embedding is an injective immersion f : M → N that is also a topological embedding, so that M is diffeomorphic to its image in N. An immersion is precisely a local embedding – that is, for any point x ∈ M there is a neighbourhood, U ⊆ M, of x such that f : U → N is an embedding, and conversely a local embedding is an ...
In mathematics, one normed vector space is said to be continuously embedded in another normed vector space if the inclusion function between them is continuous. In some sense, the two norms are "almost equivalent", even though they are not both defined on the same space. Several of the Sobolev embedding theorems are continuous embedding theorems.
The Nash embedding theorem is a global theorem in the sense that the whole manifold is embedded into R n. A local embedding theorem is much simpler and can be proved using the implicit function theorem of advanced calculus in a coordinate neighborhood of the manifold. The proof of the global embedding theorem relies on Nash's implicit function ...
For example, if X and Y are smooth over a scheme S and if i is an S-morphism, then i is a regular embedding. In particular, every section of a smooth morphism is a regular embedding. [1] If is regularly embedded into a regular scheme, then B is a complete intersection ring. [2]
A framed knot is the extension of a tame knot to an embedding of the solid torus D 2 × S 1 in S 3. The framing of the knot is the linking number of the image of the ribbon I × S 1 with the knot. A framed knot can be seen as the embedded ribbon and the framing is the (signed) number of twists. [8] This definition generalizes to an analogous ...
