  2. Distributive property - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributive_property

    Examples of structures with two operations that are each distributive over the other are Boolean algebras such as the algebra of sets or the switching algebra. Multiplying sums can be put into words as follows: When a sum is multiplied by a sum, multiply each summand of a sum with each summand of the other sum (keeping track of signs) then add ...

  3. Distributivity (order theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributivity_(order_theory)

    In a non-distributive lattice, there may be elements that are distributive, but not dual distributive (and vice versa). For example, in the depicted pentagon lattice N 5, the element x is distributive, [2] but not dual distributive, since x ∧ (y ∨ z) = x ∧ 1 = x ≠ z = 0 ∨ z = (x ∧ y) ∨ (x ∧ z).

    Parity is the property of an integer of whether it is even or odd; For more examples, see Category:Algebraic properties of elements. Of operations: associative property; commutative property of binary operations between real and complex numbers; distributive property; For more examples, see Category:Properties of binary operations.

  5. FOIL method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FOIL_method

    In the second step, the distributive law is used to simplify each of the two terms. Note that this process involves a total of three applications of the distributive property. In contrast to the FOIL method, the method using distributivity can be applied easily to products with more terms such as trinomials and higher.

  6. Distributive lattice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributive_lattice

    For example, an element of a distributive lattice is meet-prime if and only if it is meet-irreducible, though the latter is in general a weaker property. By duality, the same is true for join-prime and join-irreducible elements. [7] If a lattice is distributive, its covering relation forms a median graph. [8]

  7. Completely distributive lattice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completely_distributive...

    A completely distributive lattice L is called the free completely distributive lattice over a poset C if and only if there is an order embedding: such that for every completely distributive lattice M and monotonic function:, there is a unique complete homomorphism: satisfying =.

    For example, some products contained the phrase “rich in protein,” and others listed the amount of protein in the product. Researchers found that 13% of the examined products, or 561 items ...

  9. Non-associative algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-associative_algebra

    A non-associative algebra [1] (or distributive algebra) is an algebra over a field where the binary multiplication operation is not assumed to be associative.That is, an algebraic structure A is a non-associative algebra over a field K if it is a vector space over K and is equipped with a K-bilinear binary multiplication operation A × A → A which may or may not be associative.
