  2. Drinfeld module - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drinfeld_module

    The Carlitz module is the Drinfeld module ψ given by ψ(T) = T+τ, where A is F p [T] and L is a suitable complete algebraically closed field containing A. It was described by L. Carlitz in 1935, many years before the general definition of Drinfeld module.

  3. Mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics

    The apparent plural form in English goes back to the Latin neuter plural mathematica , based on the Greek plural ta mathēmatiká (τὰ μαθηματικά) and means roughly "all things mathematical", although it is plausible that English borrowed only the adjective mathematic(al) and formed the noun mathematics anew, after the pattern of ...

  4. Module (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    A right R-module M R is defined similarly in terms of an operation · : M × R → M. Authors who do not require rings to be unital omit condition 4 in the definition above; they would call the structures defined above "unital left R-modules". In this article, consistent with the glossary of ring theory, all rings and modules are assumed to be ...

    It is to be regretted that this first comprehensive and thorough-going presentation of a mathematical logic and the derivation of mathematics from it [is] so greatly lacking in formal precision in the foundations (contained in 1– 21 of Principia [i.e., sections 1– 5 (propositional logic), 8–14 (predicate logic with identity/equality), 20 ...

  6. Modular arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_arithmetic

    Time-keeping on this clock uses arithmetic modulo 12. Adding 4 hours to 9 o'clock gives 1 o'clock, since 13 is congruent to 1 modulo 12. In mathematics, modular arithmetic is a system of arithmetic for integers, where numbers "wrap around" when reaching a certain value, called the modulus.

    Mathematical modeling in this way does not necessarily require formal mathematics; animals have been shown to use dead reckoning. [13] [14] Population Growth. A simple (though approximate) model of population growth is the Malthusian growth model.

    However, many students take alternatives to the traditional pathways, including accelerated tracks. As of 2023, twenty-seven states require students to pass three math courses before graduation from high school (grades 9 to 12, for students typically aged 14 to 18), while seventeen states and the District of Columbia require four.
