  2. If and only if - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/If_and_only_if

    The corresponding logical symbols are "", "", [6] and , [10] and sometimes "iff".These are usually treated as equivalent. However, some texts of mathematical logic (particularly those on first-order logic, rather than propositional logic) make a distinction between these, in which the first, ↔, is used as a symbol in logic formulas, while ⇔ is used in reasoning about those logic formulas ...

    is true only if both A and B are false, or both A and B are true. Whether a symbol means a material biconditional or a logical equivalence , depends on the author’s style. x + 5 = y + 2 ⇔ x + 3 = y {\displaystyle x+5=y+2\Leftrightarrow x+3=y}

    Venn diagram of (true part in red) In logic and mathematics, the logical biconditional, also known as material biconditional or equivalence or biimplication or bientailment, is the logical connective used to conjoin two statements and to form the statement "if and only if" (often abbreviated as "iff " [1]), where is known as the antecedent, and the consequent.

  5. Local diffeomorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_diffeomorphism

    A map is a local diffeomorphism if and only if it is a smooth immersion (smooth local embedding) and an open map. The inverse function theorem implies that a smooth map f : X → Y {\displaystyle f:X\to Y} is a local diffeomorphism if and only if the derivative D f x : T x X → T f ( x ) Y {\displaystyle Df_{x}:T_{x}X\to T_{f(x)}Y} is a linear ...

    Dyckhoff & Negri (2015) list eight consequences of the above theorem that explain its significance (omitting footnotes and most references): [1] In the context of a sequent calculus such as G3c, special coherent implications as axioms can be converted directly to inference rules without affecting the admissibility of the structural rules (Weakening, Contraction and Cut);

  7. Glossary of mathematical symbols - Wikipedia

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

    A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula. As formulas are entirely constituted with symbols of various types, many symbols are needed for ...

    If two filtrations and ′ are defined on a group , then the identity map from to , where the first copy of is given the -topology and the second the ′-topology, is continuous if and only if for any there is an such that ′, that is, if and only if the identity map is continuous at 1. In particular, the two filtrations define the same ...

  9. Inverse function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function

    Specifically, if f is an invertible function with domain X and codomain Y, then its inverse f −1 has domain Y and image X, and the inverse of f −1 is the original function f. In symbols, for functions f : X → Y and f −1 : Y → X , [ 13 ]
