Every Lie algebra L is isomorphic to a subalgebra of some Lie algebra A^-, where the associative algebra A may be taken to be the linear operators over a vector space V.

In a complete metric space, a countable union of nowhere dense sets is said to be meager; the complement of such a set is a residual set.

A set in a Polish space is a Borel set iff it is both analytic and coanalytic. For subsets of w, a set is delta_1^1 iff it is "hyperarithmetic."

A topological space fulfilling the T_4-axiom: X fulfils the T1-separation axiom and is normal. In the terminology of Alexandroff and Hopf (1972), T_4-space are called Tietze ...

An abstract manifold is a manifold in the context of an abstract space with no particular embedding, or representation in mind. It is a topological space with an atlas of ...

A basis vector in an n-dimensional vector space is one of any chosen set of n vectors in the space forming a vector basis, i.e., having the property that every vector in the ...

The Gauss map is a function N from an oriented surface M in Euclidean space R^3 to the unit sphere in R^3. It associates to every point on the surface its oriented unit ...

The 11-cell is a regular 4-dimensional structure that cannot be represented in 3-dimensional space in any reasonable way and is highly self-intersecting even in 4-dimensional ...

A Banach space X has the approximation property (AP) if, for every epsilon>0 and each compact subset K of X, there is a finite rank operator T in X such that for each x in K, ...

A Schauder basis for a Banach space X is a sequence {x_n} in X with the property that every x in X has a unique representation of the form x=sum_(n=1)^(infty)alpha_nx_n for ...
