# Tags

A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Using the right tags makes it easier for others to find and answer your question.

 Type to find tags:
 artificial-intelligence× 59 For questions about artificial intelligence. graph-laplacian× 58 An simple graph has a symmetric matrix L = D - A associated with it called the Laplacian matrix, where D is the diagonal matrix of degrees and A is the adjacency matrix, often studied for its spectrum… fibration× 58 A branch of topology that deals with the notion of a fiber bundle. poissons-equation× 58 research× 58 rubiks-cube× 58 Questions on the mathematics behind the famed toy invented by Ernő Rubik. symmetric-functions× 58 symmetric in its arguments. prime-ideals× 57 poker× 57 a card game with several variants (Draw, Texas Hold'em, ...), the common goal being to collect face value patterns such as "four of a kind", "full house" or "straight" or all of a suit ("flus… prime-twins× 57 For questions on prime twins. experimental-mathematics× 57 The utilization of advanced computing technology in mathematical research: new mathematical results discovered partly or entirely with the aid of computer-based tools. dimensional-analysis× 57 The study of the relationships between physical quantities by identifying their units of measure and fundamental dimensions. It is used to convert from one set of units to others such as from miles p… nets× 56 a generalization of a sequence where a directed set is used as the index set instead of positive integers. Convergence of nets can be defined in a similar way as convergence of sequences. … nilpotence× 56 A nilpotent matrix has $A^n=0$ for some integer $n$. inverse-problems× 56 Inverse problems involve for example reconstruction of an object based on physical measurements and finding a best model/parameters out of a family given observed data. Typically the corresponding "fo… abelian-varieties× 55 eulers-constant× 54 For questions related to Euler's constant, which is defined to be the limiting difference between the natural logarithm and the harmonic series. minimal-surfaces× 54 Question on minimal surfaces, or surfaces that have zero mean curvature. pell-type-equations× 54 Questions on finding integer solutions to a certain kind of bivariate equations. random-functions× 54 stationary-processes× 54 For questions about strictly stationary or stationary in the wide sense sequences or processes. Questions about deterministic stationary processes (in the case of discrete dynamical systems) are welco… tessellations× 53 For question on Tessellations, the process of creating a two-dimensional plane using the repetition of a geometric shape with no overlaps and no gaps. parity× 53 mean-square-error× 53 euler-lagrange-equation× 53 automorphic-forms× 53 a generalization of the idea of periodic functions in Euclidean space to general topological groups. associativity× 52 the property shared by many binary operations including group operations. For a binary operation $\cdot$, associativity holds if $(x\cdot y)\cdot z = x \cdot(y\cdot z)$. chebyshev-polynomials× 52 In mathematics the Chebyshev polynomials, named after Pafnuty Chebyshev, are a sequence of orthogonal polynomials which are related to de Moivre's formula and which can be defined recursively. statistical-mechanics× 52 semidefinite-programming× 52 schwartz-space× 52 For question about the Schwartz space, a vector space of smooth functions stable under the Fourier transform. spheres× 51 For geometrical problems involving spheres. Use the tag (geometry) as well. For intrinsic geometry of spheres, see (spherical-geometry). mathematicians× 51 Questions about mathematicians and their lives. positive-characteristic× 51 For questions involving rings of positive characteristic, particularly those questions whose statements and hypotheses heavily rely on positive characteristic. Consider using the ring-theory tag for … coxeter-groups× 51 For questions about Coxeter groups, an abstract group that admits a formal description in terms of reflections. deformation-theory× 50 The study of how mathematical objects (complex manifolds, associative algebras, Lie algebras) can be deformed into similar mathematical objects, at least infinitesimally.
