Algebraic-group factorisation algorithm — Algebraic group factorisation algorithms are algorithms for factoring an integer N by working in an algebraic group defined modulo N whose group structure is the direct sum of the reduced groups obtained by performing the equations defining the… …   Wikipedia

Algebraic character — is a formal expression attached to a module in representation theory of semisimple Lie algebras that generalizes the character of a finite dimensional representation and is analogous to the Harish Chandra character of the representations of… …   Wikipedia

Algebraic number — In mathematics, an algebraic number is a complex number that is a root of a non zero polynomial in one variable with rational (or equivalently, integer) coefficients. Complex numbers such as pi that are not algebraic are said to be transcendental …   Wikipedia

Algebraic number field — In mathematics, an algebraic number field (or simply number field) F is a finite (and hence algebraic) field extension of the field of rational numbers Q. Thus F is a field that contains Q and has finite dimension when considered as a vector… …   Wikipedia

Almost complex manifold — In mathematics, an almost complex manifold is a smooth manifold equipped with smooth linear complex structure on each tangent space. The existence of this structure is a necessary, but not sufficient, condition for a manifold to be a complex… …   Wikipedia

Differential algebraic equation — In mathematics, differential algebraic equations (DAEs) are a general form of (systems of) differential equations for vector–valued functions x in one independent variable t, where is a vector of dependent variables and the system has as many… …   Wikipedia

Direct algebraic logic — (DAL) is a method for entering equations on scientific calculators which allows symbols and numbers to be entered as they are written. SHARP introduced it in 1990s. Today DAL is used almost with every scientific calculator except those which use… …   Wikipedia

Scott domain — In the mathematical fields of order and domain theory, a Scott domain is an algebraic, bounded complete cpo. It has been named in honour of Dana S. Scott, who was the first to study these structures at the advent of domain theory. Scott domains… …   Wikipedia
