Natural Number
In mathematics, the natural numbers are those numbers used for counting (as in "there are ''six'' coins on the table") and ordering (as in "this is the ''third'' largest city in the country"). Numbers used for counting are called ''Cardinal number, cardinal numbers'', and numbers used for ordering are called ''Ordinal number, ordinal numbers''. Natural numbers are sometimes used as labels, known as ''nominal numbers'', having none of the properties of numbers in a mathematical sense (e.g. sports Number (sports), jersey numbers). Some definitions, including the standard ISO/IEC 80000, ISO 80000-2, begin the natural numbers with , corresponding to the non-negative integers , whereas others start with , corresponding to the positive integers Texts that exclude zero from the natural numbers sometimes refer to the natural numbers together with zero as the whole numbers, while in other writings, that term is used instead for the integers (including negative integers).

Hemi-dodecahedron
A hemi-dodecahedron is an abstract regular polyhedron, containing half the faces of a regular dodecahedron. It can be realized as a projective polyhedron (a tessellation of the real projective plane by 6 pentagons), which can be visualized by constructing the projective plane as a hemisphere where opposite points along the boundary are connected and dividing the hemisphere into three equal parts. It has 6 pentagonal faces, 15 edges, and 10 vertices. Projections It can be projected symmetrically inside of a 10-sided or 12-sided perimeter: : Petersen graph From the point of view of graph theory this is an embedding of the Petersen graph on a real projective plane. With this embedding, the dual graph is ''K''6 (the complete graph with 6 vertices) --- see hemi-icosahedron.

53 (number)
53 (fifty-three) is the natural number following 52 and preceding 54. It is the 16th prime number. In mathematics *Fifty-three is the 16th prime number. It is also an Eisenstein prime, an isolated prime, a balanced prime and a Sophie Germain prime. *The sum of the first 53 primes is 5830, which is divisible by 53, a property shared by only a few other numbers. *In hexadecimal, 53 is 35, that is, the same characters used in the decimal representation, but reversed. Four additional multiples of 53 share this property: 371 = , 5141 = , 99,481 = , and 8,520,280 = 0. Apart from the trivial case of single-digit decimals, no other number has this property. *53 cannot be expressed as the sum of any integer and its decimal digits, making 53 a self number. *53 is the smallest prime number that does not divide the order of any sporadic group.

E8 (mathematics)
In mathematics, E8 is any of several closely related exceptional simple Lie groups, linear algebraic groups or Lie algebras of dimension 248; the same notation is used for the corresponding root lattice, which has rank 8. The designation E8 comes from the Cartan–Killing classification of the complex simple Lie algebras, which fall into four infinite series labeled A''n'', B''n'', C''n'', D''n'', and five exceptional cases labeled G2, F4, E6, E7, and E8. The E8 algebra is the largest and most complicated of these exceptional cases. Basic description The Lie group E8 has dimension 248. Its rank, which is the dimension of its maximal torus, is eight. Therefore, the vectors of the root system are in eight-dimensional Euclidean space: they are described explicitly later in this article. The Weyl group of E8, which is the group of symmetries of the maximal torus which are induced by conjugations in the whole group, has order 2357 = . The compact group E8 is unique ...

Homogeneous Space
In mathematics, particularly in the theories of Lie groups, algebraic groups and topological groups, a homogeneous space for a group ''G'' is a non-empty manifold or topological space ''X'' on which ''G'' acts transitively. The elements of ''G'' are called the symmetries of ''X''. A special case of this is when the group ''G'' in question is the automorphism group of the space ''X'' – here "automorphism group" can mean isometry group, diffeomorphism group, or homeomorphism group. In this case, ''X'' is homogeneous if intuitively ''X'' looks locally the same at each point, either in the sense of isometry (rigid geometry), diffeomorphism (differential geometry), or homeomorphism (topology). Some authors insist that the action of ''G'' be faithful (non-identity elements act non-trivially), although the present article does not. Thus there is a group action of ''G'' on ''X'' which can be thought of as preserving some "geometric structure" on ''X'', and making ''X'' into a singl ...

Nilradical Of A Lie Algebra
In algebra, the nilradical of a Lie algebra is a nilpotent ideal, which is as large as possible. The nilradical \mathfrak(\mathfrak g) of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra \mathfrak is its maximal nilpotent ideal, which exists because the sum of any two nilpotent ideals is nilpotent. It is an ideal in the radical \mathfrak(\mathfrak) of the Lie algebra \mathfrak. The quotient of a Lie algebra by its nilradical is a reductive Lie algebra \mathfrak^. However, the corresponding short exact sequence : 0 \to \mathfrak(\mathfrak g)\to \mathfrak g\to \mathfrak^\to 0 does not split in general (i.e., there isn't always a ''subalgebra'' complementary to \mathfrak(\mathfrak g) in \mathfrak). This is in contrast to the Levi decomposition: the short exact sequence : 0 \to \mathfrak(\mathfrak g)\to \mathfrak g\to \mathfrak^\to 0 does split (essentially because the quotient \mathfrak^ is semisimple).

Heisenberg Algebra
In mathematics, the Heisenberg group H, named after Werner Heisenberg, is the group of 3×3 upper triangular matrices of the form ::\begin 1 & a & c\\ 0 & 1 & b\\ 0 & 0 & 1\\ \end under the operation of matrix multiplication. Elements ''a, b'' and ''c'' can be taken from any commutative ring with identity, often taken to be the ring of real numbers (resulting in the "continuous Heisenberg group") or the ring of integers (resulting in the "discrete Heisenberg group"). The continuous Heisenberg group arises in the description of one-dimensional quantum mechanical systems, especially in the context of the Stone–von Neumann theorem. More generally, one can consider Heisenberg groups associated to ''n''-dimensional systems, and most generally, to any symplectic vector space. The three-dimensional case In the three-dimensional case, the product of two Heisenberg matrices is given by: :\begin 1 & a & c\\ 0 & 1 & b\\ 0 & 0 & 1\\ \end \begin 1 & a' & c'\\ 0 & 1 & b'\\ 0 & ...

E7½
In mathematics, the Lie algebra E7½ is a subalgebra of E8 containing E7 defined by Landsberg and Manivel in order to fill the "hole" in a dimension formula for the exceptional series E''n'' of simple Lie algebras. This hole was observed by Cvitanovic, Deligne, Cohen and de Man. E7½ has dimension 190, and is not simple: as a representation of its subalgebra E7, it splits as , where (56) is the 56-dimensional irreducible representation of E7. This representation has an invariant symplectic form, and this symplectic form equips with the structure of a Heisenberg algebra; this Heisenberg algebra is the nilradical in E7½.

Lie Algebra
In mathematics, a Lie algebra (pronounced ) is a vector space \mathfrak g together with an Binary operation, operation called the Lie bracket, an Alternating multilinear map, alternating bilinear map \mathfrak g \times \mathfrak g \rightarrow \mathfrak g, that satisfies the Jacobi identity. The Lie bracket of two vectors x and y is denoted [x,y]. The vector space \mathfrak g together with this operation is a non-associative algebra, meaning that the Lie bracket is not necessarily associative property, associative. Lie algebras are closely related to Lie groups, which are group (mathematics), groups that are also smooth manifolds: any Lie group gives rise to a Lie algebra, which is its tangent space at the identity. Conversely, to any finite-dimensional Lie algebra over real or complex numbers, there is a corresponding connected space, connected Lie group unique up to finite coverings (Lie's third theorem). This Lie group–Lie algebra correspondence, correspondence allows one ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Uniform 6-polytope
In six-dimensional geometry, a uniform 6-polytope is a six-dimensional uniform polytope. A uniform polypeton is vertex-transitive, and all facets are uniform 5-polytopes. The complete set of convex uniform 6-polytopes has not been determined, but most can be made as Wythoff constructions from a small set of symmetry groups. These construction operations are represented by the permutations of rings of the Coxeter-Dynkin diagrams. Each combination of at least one ring on every connected group of nodes in the diagram produces a uniform 6-polytope. The simplest uniform polypeta are regular polytopes: the 6-simplex , the 6-cube (hexeract) , and the 6-orthoplex (hexacross) .

Wythoff Construction
In geometry, a Wythoff construction, named after mathematician Willem Abraham Wythoff, is a method for constructing a uniform polyhedron or plane tiling. It is often referred to as Wythoff's kaleidoscopic construction. Construction process The method is based on the idea of tiling a sphere, with spherical triangles – see Schwarz triangles. This construction arranges three mirrors at the sides of a triangle, like in a kaleidoscope. However, different from a kaleidoscope, the mirrors are not parallel, but intersect at a single point. They therefore enclose a spherical triangle on the surface of any sphere centered on that point and repeated reflections produce a multitude of copies of the triangle. If the angles of the spherical triangle are chosen appropriately, the triangles will tile the sphere, one or more times. If one places a vertex at a suitable point inside the spherical triangle enclosed by the mirrors, it is possible to ensure that the reflections of that point p ...

Uniform 5-polytope
In geometry, a uniform 5-polytope is a five-dimensional uniform polytope. By definition, a uniform 5-polytope is vertex-transitive and constructed from uniform 4-polytope Facet (geometry), facets. The complete set of convex uniform 5-polytopes has not been determined, but many can be made as Wythoff constructions from a small set of Coxeter groups, symmetry groups.
