The number of elements greater than i to the left of i in a permutation gives the ith element of the inversion vector (Skiena 1990, p. 27).

An invertible linear transformation T:V->W is a map between vector spaces V and W with an inverse map which is also a linear transformation. When T is given by matrix ...

A polynomial admitting a multiplicative inverse. In the polynomial ring R[x], where R is an integral domain, the invertible polynomials are precisely the constant polynomials ...

A ring in which the zero ideal is an irreducible ideal. Every integral domain R is irreducible since if I and J are two nonzero ideals of R, and a in I, b in J are nonzero ...

Two partially ordered sets are said to be isomorphic if their "structures" are entirely analogous. Formally, partially ordered sets P=(X,<=) and Q=(X^',<=^') are isomorphic ...

A Jensen disk is a disk in the complex plane whose diameter joins complex conjugate roots of a polynomial (Trott 2004, p. 22).

The term used in propositional calculus for the NOR connective. The notation AvB is used for this connective.

A transformation of an algebraic curve which is of the same type as its inverse. A Jonquière's transformation is always factorable.

The identity (xy)x^2=x(yx^2) satisfied by elements x and y in a Jordan algebra.

A geodesic triangle with oriented boundary yields a curve which is piecewise differentiable. Furthermore, the tangent vector varies continuously at all but the three corner ...
