24-cell honeycombIn four-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the 24-cell honeycomb, or icositetrachoric honeycomb is a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) of 4-dimensional Euclidean space by regular 24-cells. It can be represented by Schläfli symbol {3,4,3,3}. The dual tessellation by regular 16-cell honeycomb has Schläfli symbol {3,3,4,3}. Together with the tesseractic honeycomb (or 4-cubic honeycomb) these are the only regular tessellations of Euclidean 4-space. The 24-cell honeycomb can be constructed as the Voronoi tessellation of the D4 or F4 root lattice.
5 21 honeycombDISPLAYTITLE:5 21 honeycomb In geometry, the 521 honeycomb is a uniform tessellation of 8-dimensional Euclidean space. The symbol 521 is from Coxeter, named for the length of the 3 branches of its Coxeter-Dynkin diagram. By putting spheres at its vertices one obtains the densest-possible packing of spheres in 8 dimensions. This was proven by Maryna Viazovska in 2016 using the theory of modular forms. Viazovska was awarded the Fields Medal for this work in 2022.
Produit vectoriel en dimension 7En mathématiques, et plus précisément en algèbre linéaire, le produit vectoriel en dimension 7 est une loi de composition interne d'un espace euclidien à 7 dimensions, ayant certaines propriétés du produit vectoriel usuel (en dimension 3) ; on démontre d'ailleurs que de telles lois n'existent qu'en dimensions trois et sept. Les principes sous-jacents à la construction du produit vectoriel en dimension 7 seront présentés dans la section suivante.
Integer latticeIn mathematics, the n-dimensional integer lattice (or cubic lattice), denoted \mathbb{Z}^n, is the lattice in the Euclidean space \mathbb{R}^n whose lattice points are n-tuples of integers. The two-dimensional integer lattice is also called the square lattice, or grid lattice. \mathbb{Z}^n is the simplest example of a root lattice. The integer lattice is an odd unimodular lattice. The automorphism group (or group of congruences) of the integer lattice consists of all permutations and sign changes of the coordinates, and is of order 2n n!.
Cas dégénéréEn mathématiques, un cas dégénéré peut consister en un objet dont la définition fait apparaître des éléments redondants ou superflus, se ramenant parfois à une définition plus simple. Il peut aussi être vu comme un cas particulier d'une construction générale, ne satisfaisant pas une certaine propriété générique, notamment si ces cas sont rares dans un sens topologique ou en théorie de la mesure.
Cas pathologiquedroite|vignette|La fonction de Weierstrass est une fonction continue nulle part dérivable. En mathématiques, un objet pathologique est un objet qui s'oppose à l'intuition que l'on a de la situation générale. Par exemple, la fonction de Weierstrass, qui est une fonction continue nulle part dérivable, peut être considérée comme pathologique car elle s'oppose à l'intuition que l'on a des fonctions continues. Ainsi, Henri Poincaré écrit à leur sujet : Objet exceptionnel Position générale Catégorie:Vocabulaire d
Arithmetic groupIn mathematics, an arithmetic group is a group obtained as the integer points of an algebraic group, for example They arise naturally in the study of arithmetic properties of quadratic forms and other classical topics in number theory. They also give rise to very interesting examples of Riemannian manifolds and hence are objects of interest in differential geometry and topology. Finally, these two topics join in the theory of automorphic forms which is fundamental in modern number theory.
Quaternions de HurwitzLes quaternions de Hurwitz portent ce nom en l'honneur du mathématicien allemand Adolf Hurwitz. Soit A un anneau. On definit l'algèbre de quaternions H(A) comme l'algèbre A[H] du groupe H des quaternions. Plus explicitement, c'est le A-module libre engendré par 1, i, j et k, muni de la structure d'algèbre : 1 élément neutre pour la multiplication, et les identités : Soit , l'algèbre des quaternions sur l'anneau Z des entiers relatifs.
List of mathematical jargonThe language of mathematics has a vast vocabulary of specialist and technical terms. It also has a certain amount of jargon: commonly used phrases which are part of the culture of mathematics, rather than of the subject. Jargon often appears in lectures, and sometimes in print, as informal shorthand for rigorous arguments or precise ideas. Much of this is common English, but with a specific non-obvious meaning when used in a mathematical sense. Some phrases, like "in general", appear below in more than one section.
Skew polygonIn geometry, a skew polygon is a polygon whose vertices are not all coplanar. Skew polygons must have at least four vertices. The interior surface (or area) of such a polygon is not uniquely defined. Skew infinite polygons (apeirogons) have vertices which are not all colinear. A zig-zag skew polygon or antiprismatic polygon has vertices which alternate on two parallel planes, and thus must be even-sided. Regular skew polygons in 3 dimensions (and regular skew apeirogons in two dimensions) are always zig-zag.
