Frame - Mathematics

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 (1831–1919)

    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 (1612–1680)
