  2. Embedding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embedding

    In mathematics, an embedding (or imbedding [1]) is one instance of some mathematical structure contained within another instance, such as a group that is a subgroup. When some object X {\displaystyle X} is said to be embedded in another object Y {\displaystyle Y} , the embedding is given by some injective and structure-preserving map f : X → ...

  3. Immersion (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    A smooth embedding is an injective immersion f : M → N that is also a topological embedding, so that M is diffeomorphic to its image in N. 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 ...

  4. Graph embedding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_embedding

    An embedded graph uniquely defines cyclic orders of edges incident to the same vertex. The set of all these cyclic orders is called a rotation system.Embeddings with the same rotation system are considered to be equivalent and the corresponding equivalence class of embeddings is called combinatorial embedding (as opposed to the term topological embedding, which refers to the previous ...

  5. Embedding problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embedding_problem

    In Galois theory, a branch of mathematics, the embedding problem is a generalization of the inverse Galois problem. Roughly speaking, it asks whether a given Galois extension can be embedded into a Galois extension in such a way that the restriction map between the corresponding Galois groups is given.

  6. Knot theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knot_theory

    The notion of a knot has further generalisations in mathematics, see: Knot (mathematics), isotopy classification of embeddings. Every knot in the n -sphere S n {\displaystyle \mathbb {S} ^{n}} is the link of a real-algebraic set with isolated singularity in R n + 1 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{n+1}} ( Akbulut & King 1981 ).

  7. Klein bottle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klein_bottle

    A two-dimensional representation of the Klein bottle immersed in three-dimensional space. In mathematics, the Klein bottle (/ ˈ k l aɪ n /) is an example of a non-orientable surface; that is, informally, a one-sided surface which, if traveled upon, could be followed back to the point of origin while flipping the traveler upside down.

  8. Latent space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_space

    A latent space, also known as a latent feature space or embedding space, is an embedding of a set of items within a manifold in which items resembling each other are positioned closer to one another. Position within the latent space can be viewed as being defined by a set of latent variables that emerge from the resemblances from the objects.

  9. Continuous embedding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_embedding

    In mathematics, one normed vector space is said to be continuously embedded in another normed vector space if the inclusion function between them is continuous. In some sense, the two norms are "almost equivalent", even though they are not both defined on the same space. Several of the Sobolev embedding theorems are continuous embedding theorems.
