    Canadian Open Mathematics Challenge — Canada's premier national mathematics competition open to any student with an interest in and grasp of high school math and organised by Canadian Mathematical Society; Canadian Mathematical Olympiad — competition whose top performers represent Canada at the International Mathematical Olympiad

  3. Multiple choice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_choice

    Multiple choice questions lend themselves to the development of objective assessment items, but without author training, questions can be subjective in nature. Because this style of test does not require a teacher to interpret answers, test-takers are graded purely on their selections, creating a lower likelihood of teacher bias in the results. [8]

  4. Indian National Mathematical Olympiad - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_National...

    It is conducted in two categories Category A (Class 8 to 11) and Category B (Class 12). It is a 6-question subjective examination of 3 hours duration. It is usually held on the first Sunday of November. It is equivalent of the AIME for that particular region. Top 30 (Category A) and 6 (Category B) performers of RMO advance to represent their ...

  5. Category (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Category theory is a branch of mathematics that seeks to generalize all of mathematics in terms of categories, independent of what their objects and arrows represent. Virtually every branch of modern mathematics can be described in terms of categories, and doing so often reveals deep insights and similarities between seemingly different areas ...

  6. Degeneracy (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, a degenerate case is a limiting case of a class of objects which appears to be qualitatively different from (and usually simpler than) the rest of the class; [1] "degeneracy" is the condition of being a degenerate case. [2] The definitions of many classes of composite or structured objects often implicitly include inequalities.

  7. Bracket (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Terms inside the bracket are evaluated first; hence 2×(3 + 4) is 14, 20 ÷ (5(1 + 1)) is 2 and (2×3) + 4 is 10. This notation is extended to cover more general algebra involving variables: for example (x + y) × (x − y). Square brackets are also often used in place of a second set of parentheses when they are nested—so as to provide a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed-form_expression

    The quadratic formula =. is a closed form of the solutions to the general quadratic equation + + =. More generally, in the context of polynomial equations, a closed form of a solution is a solution in radicals; that is, a closed-form expression for which the allowed functions are only n th-roots and field operations (+,,, /).

    In mathematics, a modular form is a holomorphic function on the complex upper half-plane, , that roughly satisfies a functional equation with respect to the group action of the modular group and a growth condition.
