Mathematics Concept

A Mathematics Concept is a concept that is core to the Mathematics subject area.

• Context:
  • It can (typically) be about numbers (operations, interrelations, combinations, generalizations, and abstractions) and measurable spaces (structure, measurement, transformations, and generalizations).
  • It can (typically) be referencable by a Mathematical Term.
• Example(s):
  • number line; infinite number; infinite sets; surjective function; ...
  • a Geometry Concept.
  • a Discrete Mathematics Concept.
  • a Linear Algebra Concept.
  • a Statistical Concept.
  • …
• Counter-Example(s):
  • a Scientific Concept, such as a Physics Concept, such as the concept of molecule.
  • a Computer Science Concept, such as space complexity and Quicksort algorithm.
