    The boundary of a set in topology. The boundary operator on a chain complex in homological algebra. The boundary operator of a differential graded algebra. The conjugate of the Dolbeault operator on complex differential forms. The boundary ∂(S) of a set of vertices S in a graph is the set of edges leaving S, which defines a cut.

    A disk is said to be closed if it contains the circle that constitutes its boundary, and open if it does not. [ 2 ] For a radius, r {\displaystyle r} , an open disk is usually denoted as D r {\displaystyle D_{r}} and a closed disk is D r ¯ {\displaystyle {\overline {D_{r}}}} .

    Chain-link fencing showing the diamond patterning A chain-link fence bordering a residential property. A chain-link fence (also referred to as wire netting, wire-mesh fence, chain-wire fence, cyclone fence, hurricane fence, or diamond-mesh fence) is a type of woven fence usually made from galvanized or linear low-density polyethylene-coated steel wire.

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...

  6. Fault (geology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fault_(geology)

    A special class of strike-slip fault is the transform fault when it forms a plate boundary. This class is related to an offset in a spreading center, such as a mid-ocean ridge, or, less common, within continental lithosphere, such as the Dead Sea Transform in the Middle East or the Alpine Fault in New Zealand. Transform faults are also referred ...

    The reciprocal lattices (dots) and corresponding first Brillouin zones of (a) square lattice and (b) hexagonal lattice. In mathematics and solid state physics, the first Brillouin zone (named after Léon Brillouin) is a uniquely defined primitive cell in reciprocal space.
