The development of abstract algebra brought with itself group theory, rings and fields, Galois theory.

Ultimately, the abstract parallels between algebraic systems were seen to be more important than the details and modern algebra was born.

In abstract algebra, an algebraically closed field F contains a root for every non-constant polynomial in F, the ring of polynomials in the variable x with coefficients in F.

In the context of abstract algebra, for example, a mathematical object is an algebraic structure such as a group, ring, or vector space.

Algebraic geometry is a branch of mathematics which combines techniques of abstract algebra, especially commutative algebra, with the language and the problems of geometry.

In abstract algebra, a field extension L / K is called algebraic if every element of L is algebraic over K, i. e. if every element of L is a root of some non-zero polynomial with coefficients in K. Field extensions that are not algebraic, i. e. which contain transcendental elements, are called transcendental.

In abstract algebra, an abelian group, also called a commutative group, is a group in which the result of applying the group operation to two group elements does not depend on their order ( the axiom of commutativity ).

The concept of an abelian group is one of the first concepts encountered in undergraduate abstract algebra, with many other basic objects, such as a module and a vector space, being its refinements.

In mathematics, particularly abstract algebra, an algebraic closure of a field K is an algebraic extension of K that is algebraically closed.

* Alternative algebra, an abstract algebra with alternative multiplication

In abstract algebra, an alternative algebra is an algebra in which multiplication need not be associative, only alternative.

Binary operations are the keystone of algebraic structures studied in abstract algebra: they form part of groups, monoids, semigroups, rings, and more.

In abstract algebra, a Boolean algebra or Boolean lattice is a complemented distributive lattice.

Homological algebra is category theory in its aspect of organising and suggesting manipulations in abstract algebra.

In abstract algebra, the derivative is interpreted as a morphism of modules of Kähler differentials.

It is also a tool used in branches of mathematics including combinatorics, abstract algebra, and mathematical analysis.

In mathematics, particularly in the area of abstract algebra known as group theory, a characteristic subgroup is a subgroup that is invariant under all automorphisms of the parent group.

The Chinese remainder theorem is a result about congruences in number theory and its generalizations in abstract algebra.

In mathematics, more specifically in abstract algebra, the commutator subgroup or derived subgroup of a group is the subgroup generated by all the commutators of the group.

For example, the abstract general idea or concept that is designated by the word " red " is that characteristic which is common to apples, cherries, and blood.

The abstract general idea or concept that is signified by the word " dog " is the collection of those characteristics which are common to Airedales, Collies, and Chihuahuas.

" Is a " triangle " — an abstract idea — part of existence in the same way that a " man " — a physical body — is part of existence?

However, that would convey the idea of the physical body of people, whereas using the name of the language as the basis of the word gives it the more abstract connotation of a cultural sphere.

Thus one can understand equations by a pure understanding of abstract topology or geometry — this idea is of importance in algebraic geometry.

By the early 1960s minimalism emerged as an abstract movement in art ( with roots in geometric abstraction of Kazimir Malevich, the Bauhaus and Piet Mondrian ) that rejected the idea of relational and subjective painting, the complexity of abstract expressionist surfaces, and the emotional zeitgeist and polemics present in the arena of action painting.

He speculated that myths arose due to the lack of abstract nouns and neuter gender in ancient languages: anthropomorphic figures of speech, necessary in such languages, were eventually taken literally, leading to the idea that natural phenomena were conscious beings, gods.

Some theories further generalize the idea to include such things as unbounded polytopes ( apeirotopes and tessellations ), and abstract polytopes.

Platonic realism is a philosophical term usually used to refer to the idea of realism regarding the existence of universals or abstract objects after the Greek philosopher Plato ( c. 427 – c.

He argued that the " sign " was composed of both a signified, an abstract concept or idea, and a " signifier ", the perceived sound / visual image.

Pope Pius IX had condemned the idea of abstract religious freedom.

Various attempts were made to substantiate the " abstract idea " test, which suffers from abstractness itself, but eventually none of them was successful.

* Noun: any abstract or concrete entity ; a person ( police officer, Michael ), place ( coastline, London ), thing ( necktie, television ), idea ( happiness ), or quality ( bravery )

Powerful discussions are claimed to arise from personal connections to an abstract idea ( thought, mental image or notion ) or from a personal value ( an idea that is desirable or worthy for its own sake ).

Further, this definition of trust is abstract, allowing different instances and observers in a trusted system to communicate based on a common idea of trust ( otherwise communication would be isolated in domains ), where all necessarily different subjective and intersubjective realizations of trust in each subsystem ( man and machines ) may coexist.

Apostrophe ( Greek ἀποστροφή, apostrophé, " turning away "; the final e being sounded ) is an exclamatory rhetorical figure of speech, when a speaker or writer breaks off and directs speech to an imaginary person or abstract quality or idea.

Various generalizations capture in an abstract form this idea of curvature as a measure of holonomy ; see curvature form.

We conceive the abstract idea of life in terms of our experiences of a journey, a year, or a day.

Applications of chain complexes usually define and apply their homology groups ( cohomology groups for cochain complexes ); in more abstract settings various equivalence relations are applied to complexes ( for example starting with the chain homotopy idea ).

When a man, for example, has obtained an idea of chairs in general by comparison with which he can say " This is a chair, that is a stool ", he has what is known as an " abstract idea " distinct from the reproduction in his mind of any particular chair ( see abstraction ).

< Dictionary. com http :// dictionary. reference. com / browse / symbolism >.</ ref > A symbol is an object, action, or idea that represents something other than itself, often of a more abstract nature.

In abstract algebra, a field is a commutative ring which contains a multiplicative inverse for every nonzero element, equivalently a ring whose nonzero elements form an abelian group under multiplication.

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, the abstract notion of a limit captures the essential properties of universal constructions such as products, pullbacks and inverse limits.

In this work Jevons embodied the substance of his earlier works on pure logic and the substitution of similars ; he also enunciated and developed the view that induction is simply an inverse employment of deduction ; he treated in a luminous manner the general theory of probability, and the relation between probability and induction ; and his knowledge of the various natural sciences enabled him throughout to relieve the abstract character of logical doctrine by concrete scientific illustrations, often worked out in great detail.

In abstract algebra, a semiring is an algebraic structure similar to a ring, but without the requirement that each element must have an additive inverse.

In modular arithmetic the set of congruence classes relatively prime to the modulus n form a group under multiplication called the multiplicative group of integers modulo n. It is also called the group of primitive residue classes modulo n. In the theory of rings, a branch of abstract algebra, it is described as the group of units of the ring of integers modulo n. ( Units refers to elements with a multiplicative inverse.
