A reference to a standard or choice-free presentation of some mathematical object (e.g., canonical map, canonical form, or canonical ordering). The same term can also be used more informally to refer to something "standard" or "classic". For example, one might say that Euclid's proof is the "canonical proof" of the infinitude of primes.
Domain-specific terms must be recategorized into the corresponding mathematical domain. If the domain is unclear, but reasonably believed to exist, it is better to put the page into the root category:mathematics, where it will have a better chance of spotting and classification.

An informal phrase but usually means taking a quotient; e.g., a cone is obtained by collapsing the top (or bottom) of a cylinder. completion complex bordism complex-oriented A multiplicative cohomology theory E is complex-oriented if the restriction map E 2 (CP ∞) → E 2 (CP 1) is surjective. concordant cone
algebraic vector bundle A locally free sheaf of a finite rank. ample A line bundle on a projective variety is ample if some tensor power of it is very ample. Arakelov geometry Algebraic geometry over the compactification of Spec of the ring of rational integers. See Arakelov geometry. [5] arithmetic genus
In algebraic topology it is an extraordinary cohomology theory known as topological K-theory. In algebra and algebraic geometry it is referred to as algebraic K-theory. In physics, K-theory has appeared in type II string theory. (In particular twisted K-theory.) K-homology a homology theory on the category of locally compact Hausdorff spaces.
For example: "All humans are mortal, and Socrates is a human. ∴ Socrates is mortal." ∵ Abbreviation of "because" or "since". Placed between two assertions, it means that the first one is implied by the second one. For example: "11 is prime ∵ it has no positive integer factors other than itself and one." ∋ 1. Abbreviation of "such that".
