  2. Ring network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_network

    Token Ring (802.5) networks imitate a ring at layer 2 but use a physical star at layer 1. "Rings prevent collisions." The term "ring" only refers to the layout of the cables. It is true that there are no collisions on an IBM Token Ring, but this is because of the layer 2 Media Access Control method, not the physical topology (which again is a ...

    In this status, one of the MRM ring ports is blocked, while the other is forwarding. Conversely, both ring ports of all MRCs are forwarding. Loops are avoided because the physical ring topology is reduced to a logical line topology. In case of failure, the network works in the Ring-Open status (Figure 2).

  4. Network topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_topology

    A network's logical topology is not necessarily the same as its physical topology. For example, the original twisted pair Ethernet using repeater hubs was a logical bus topology carried on a physical star topology. Token Ring is a logical ring topology, but is wired as a physical star from the media access unit.

  5. Attractor network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attractor_network

    An attractor network is a type of recurrent dynamical network, that evolves toward a stable pattern over time.Nodes in the attractor network converge toward a pattern that may either be fixed-point (a single state), cyclic (with regularly recurring states), chaotic (locally but not globally unstable) or random (). [1]

    Thus π is injective if and only if this intersection reduces to the zero element of the ring; by the Krull intersection theorem, this is the case for any commutative Noetherian ring which is an integral domain or a local ring. There is a related topology on R-modules, also called Krull or I-adic topology.

  7. Knot theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knot_theory

    In topology, knot theory is the study of mathematical knots. While inspired by knots which appear in daily life, such as those in shoelaces and rope, a mathematical knot differs in that the ends are joined so it cannot be undone, the simplest knot being a ring (or "unknot").

  8. Spectrum of a ring - Wikipedia

    First, there is the notion of constructible topology: given a ring A, the subsets of ⁡ of the form (⁡),: satisfy the axioms for closed sets in a topological space. This topology on Spec ⁡ ( A ) {\displaystyle \operatorname {Spec} (A)} is called the constructible topology.

  9. Topological ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topological_ring

    The group of units of a topological ring is a topological group when endowed with the topology coming from the embedding of into the product as (,). However, if the unit group is endowed with the subspace topology as a subspace of , it may not be a topological group, because inversion on need not be continuous with respect to the subspace topology.
