The map which takes points on the surface of a sphere S^2 to their antipodal points.

The map H_n(X,A)->H_(n-1)(A) appearing in the long exact sequence of a pair axiom.

A pullback is a general categorical operation appearing in a number of mathematical contexts, sometimes going under a different name. If T:V->W is a linear transformation ...

A function f mapping a set X->X/R (X modulo R), where R is an equivalence relation in X, is called a canonical map.

A map f:X-->Y is called constant with constant value y if f(x)=y for all x in X, i.e., if all elements of X are sent to same element y of Y.

The map which assigns every member of a set A to the same element id_A. It is identical to the identity function.

An automorphism which interchanges the two vertices of a regular map at each edge without interchanging the vertices.

A two-dimensional map similar to the Hénon map but with the term -alphax_n^2 replaced by -alpha|x_n|. It is given by the equations x_(n+1) = 1-alpha|x_n|+y_n (1) y_(n+1) = ...

A map u:R^n->R^n from a domain G is called a map of class C^r if each component of u(x)=(u_1(x_1,...,x_n),...,u_m(x_1,...,x_n)) is of class C^r (0<=r<=infty or r=omega) in G, ...

Given a subset B of a set A, the injection f:B->A defined by f(b)=b for all b in B is called the inclusion map.
