  2. Immersion (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    An immersion is precisely a local embedding – that is, for any point x ∈ M there is a neighbourhood, U ⊆ M, of x such that f : U → N is an embedding, and conversely a local embedding is an immersion. [3] For infinite dimensional manifolds, this is sometimes taken to be the definition of an immersion. [4]

  3. On-the-job training - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On-the-job_training

    On-the-job training (widely known as OJT) is an important topic of human resource management. It helps develop the career of the individual and the prosperous growth of the organization. On-the-job training is a form of training provided at the workplace. During the training, employees are familiarized with the working environment they will ...

  4. Submersion (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, a submersion is a differentiable map between differentiable manifolds whose differential is everywhere surjective. This is a basic concept in differential topology. The notion of a submersion is dual to the notion of an immersion.

  5. Graph minor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_minor

    An edge contraction is an operation that removes an edge from a graph while simultaneously merging the two vertices it used to connect. An undirected graph H is a minor of another undirected graph G if a graph isomorphic to H can be obtained from G by contracting some edges, deleting some edges, and deleting some isolated vertices.

  6. 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 : is a local diffeomorphism if and only if the derivative: is a linear isomorphism for all points .

  7. Smooth scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smooth_scheme

    Smoothness is independent of the choice of immersion of X into affine space. The condition on the matrix of derivatives is understood to mean that the closed subset of X where all ( n − m ) × ( n − m ) minors of the matrix of derivatives are zero is the empty set.

  8. Closed immersion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_immersion

    The notion of a closed immersion is local in the sense that f is a closed immersion if and only if for some (equivalently every) open covering = the induced map : is a closed immersion. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] If the composition Z → Y → X {\displaystyle Z\to Y\to X} is a closed immersion and Y → X {\displaystyle Y\to X} is separated , then Z → Y ...

  9. Nash embedding theorems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nash_embedding_theorems

    The technical statement appearing in Nash's original paper is as follows: if M is a given m-dimensional Riemannian manifold (analytic or of class C k, 3 ≤ k ≤ ∞), then there exists a number n (with n ≤ m(3m+11)/2 if M is a compact manifold, and with n ≤ m(m+1)(3m+11)/2 if M is a non-compact manifold) and an isometric embedding ƒ: M → R n (also analytic or of class C k).
