  2. Map (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map_(mathematics)

    A map is a function, as in the association of any of the four colored shapes in X to its color in Y. In mathematics, a map or mapping is a function in its general sense. [1] These terms may have originated as from the process of making a geographical map: mapping the Earth surface to a sheet of paper. [2]

  3. Map graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map_graph

    A 3-map graph is a planar graph, and every planar graph can be represented as a 3-map graph. Every 4-map graph is a 1-planar graph , a graph that can be drawn with at most one crossing per edge, and every optimal 1-planar graph (a graph formed from a planar quadrangulation by adding two crossing diagonals to every quadrilateral face) is a 4-map ...

  4. Open and closed maps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_and_closed_maps

    In mathematics, more specifically in topology, an open map is a function between two topological spaces that maps open sets to open sets. [1] [2] [3] That is, a function : is open if for any open set in , the image is open in . Likewise, a closed map is a function that maps closed sets to closed sets.

    Depending on authors, the term "maps" or the term "functions" may be reserved for specific kinds of functions or morphisms (e.g., function as an analytic term and map as a general term). mathematics See mathematics. multivalued A "multivalued function” from a set A to a set B is a function from A to the subsets of B.

  6. Manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifold

    A coordinate map, a coordinate chart, or simply a chart, of a manifold is an invertible map between a subset of the manifold and a simple space such that both the map and its inverse preserve the desired structure. [2]

  7. Mathematical diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_diagram

    In mathematics, and especially in category theory, a commutative diagram is a diagram of objects, also known as vertices, and morphisms, also known as arrows or edges, such that when selecting two objects any directed path through the diagram leads to the same result by composition.

  8. Atlas (topology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlas_(topology)

    In mathematics, particularly topology, an atlas is a concept used to describe a manifold. An atlas consists of individual charts that, roughly speaking, describe individual regions of the manifold. In general, the notion of atlas underlies the formal definition of a manifold and related structures such as vector bundles and other fiber bundles.

  9. Chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chart

    A radar chart or "spider chart" or "doi" is a two-dimensional chart of three or more quantitative variables represented on axes starting from the same point. A waterfall chart also known as a "Walk" chart, is a special type of floating-column chart. A tree map where the areas of the rectangles correspond to values. Other dimensions can be ...
