Mathematics
- Basis, an ordered basis is also called a "frame"
- Frame bundle, in mathematics is a principal fiber bundle associated with any vector bundle
- Frame of reference, the set of coordinates in which a system is observed
- Frame of a vector space, a generalization of a basis to sets of possibly linearly dependent vectors which also satisfy the frame condition
- Frames and locales, in order theory
- K-frame, a generalization of a basis to linearly independent sets of vectors that need not span the space
- Moving frame, in differential geometry
- Orthonormal frame, in Riemannian geometry
- Projective frame, in projective geometry
- Sampling frame, a set of items or events possible to measure (statistics)

Famous quotes containing the word mathematics:
“... though mathematics may teach a man how to build a bridge, it is what the Scotch Universities call the humanities, that teach him to be civil and sweet-tempered.”
—Amelia E. Barr (18311919)
“In mathematics he was greater
Than Tycho Brahe, or Erra Pater:
For he, by geometric scale,
Could take the size of pots of ale;
Resolve, by sines and tangents straight,
If bread and butter wanted weight;
And wisely tell what hour o th day
The clock doth strike, by algebra.”
—Samuel Butler (16121680)
