  2. 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 ...

  3. Univalent function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Univalent_function

    One can prove that if and are two open connected sets in the complex plane, and : is a univalent function such that () = (that is, is surjective), then the derivative of is never zero, is invertible, and its inverse is also holomorphic.

  4. Square packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_packing

    For most of these numbers (with the exceptions only of 5 and 10), the packing is the natural one with axis-aligned squares, and is ⌈ ⌉, where ⌈ ⌉ is the ceiling (round up) function. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The figure shows the optimal packings for 5 and 10 squares, the two smallest numbers of squares for which the optimal packing involves tilted ...

  5. Modulo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulo

    In computing, the modulo operation returns the remainder or signed remainder of a division, after one number is divided by another, called the modulus of the operation.. Given two positive numbers a and n, a modulo n (often abbreviated as a mod n) is the remainder of the Euclidean division of a by n, where a is the dividend and n is the divisor.

  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.

  7. Quaternion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaternion

    For two elements a 1 + b 1 i + c 1 j + d 1 k and a 2 + b 2 i + c 2 j + d 2 k, their product, called the Hamilton product (a 1 + b 1 i + c 1 j + d 1 k) (a 2 + b 2 i + c 2 j + d 2 k), is determined by the products of the basis elements and the distributive law. The distributive law makes it possible to expand the product so that it is a sum of ...

  8. Flat module - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_module

    Conversely, every flat module can be written as a direct limit of finitely-generated free modules. [4] Direct products of flat modules need not in general be flat. In fact, given a ring R, every direct product of flat R-modules is flat if and only if R is a coherent ring (that is, every finitely generated ideal is finitely presented). [5]

  9. CORDIC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CORDIC

    CORDIC (coordinate rotation digital computer), Volder's algorithm, Digit-by-digit method, Circular CORDIC (Jack E. Volder), [1] [2] Linear CORDIC, Hyperbolic CORDIC (John Stephen Walther), [3] [4] and Generalized Hyperbolic CORDIC (GH CORDIC) (Yuanyong Luo et al.), [5] [6] is a simple and efficient algorithm to calculate trigonometric functions, hyperbolic functions, square roots ...
