2. Lattice constant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_constant

   Unit cell definition using parallelepiped with lengths a, b, c and angles between the sides given by α, β, γ [1]. A lattice constant or lattice parameter is one of the physical dimensions and angles that determine the geometry of the unit cells in a crystal lattice, and is proportional to the distance between atoms in the crystal.

3. Free lattice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_lattice

   Because the concept of a lattice can be axiomatised in terms of two operations and satisfying certain identities, the category of all lattices constitute a variety (universal algebra), and thus there exist (by general principles of universal algebra) free objects within this category: lattices where only those relations hold which follow from the general axioms.

4. Crystal structure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_structure

   The geometry of the unit cell is defined as a parallelepiped, providing six lattice parameters taken as the lengths of the cell edges (a, b, c) and the angles between them (α, β, γ). The positions of particles inside the unit cell are described by the fractional coordinates ( x i , y i , z i ) along the cell edges, measured from a reference ...

5. Lattice model (physics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_model_(physics)

   Physical lattice models frequently occur as an approximation to a continuum theory, either to give an ultraviolet cutoff to the theory to prevent divergences or to perform numerical computations. An example of a continuum theory that is widely studied by lattice models is the QCD lattice model, a discretization of quantum chromodynamics.

6. Metric lattice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_lattice

   Example valuation function on the cube lattice which makes it a metric lattice. In the mathematical study of order , a metric lattice L is a lattice that admits a positive valuation : a function v ∈ L → ℝ satisfying, for any a , b ∈ L , [ 1 ] v ( a ) + v ( b ) = v ( a ∧ b ) + v ( a ∨ b ) {\displaystyle v(a)+v(b)=v(a\wedge b)+v(a\vee ...

7. Hermite constant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermite_constant

   In mathematics, the Hermite constant, named after Charles Hermite, determines how long a shortest element of a lattice in Euclidean space can be. The constant γ n for integers n > 0 is defined as follows. For a lattice L in Euclidean space R n with unit covolume, i.e. vol(R n /L) = 1, let λ 1 (L) denote the least length of a nonzero element of L.
