Integer-valued Polynomial
In mathematics, an integer-valued polynomial (also known as a numerical polynomial) P(t) is a polynomial whose value P(n) is an integer for every integer ''n''. Every polynomial with integer coefficients is integer-valued, but the converse is not true. For example, the polynomial : \frac t^2 + \frac t=\fract(t+1) takes on integer values whenever ''t'' is an integer. That is because one of ''t'' and t + 1 must be an even number. (The values this polynomial takes are the triangular numbers.) Integer-valued polynomials are objects of study in their own right in algebra, and frequently appear in algebraic topology.. See in particular pp. 213–214. Classification The class of integer-valued polynomials was described fully by . Inside the polynomial ring \Q /math> of polynomials with rational number coefficients, the subring of integer-valued polynomials is a free abelian group. It has as basis the polynomials :P_k(t) = t(t-1)\cdots (t-k+1)/k! for k = 0,1,2, \dots, i.e., th ...

Mathematics
Mathematics is an area of knowledge that includes the topics of numbers, formulas and related structures, shapes and the spaces in which they are contained, and quantities and their changes. These topics are represented in modern mathematics with the major subdisciplines of number theory, algebra, geometry, and analysis, respectively. There is no general consensus among mathematicians about a common definition for their academic discipline. Most mathematical activity involves the discovery of properties of abstract objects and the use of pure reason to prove them. These objects consist of either abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicsentities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. A ''proof'' consists of a succession of applications of deductive rules to already established results. These results include previously proved theorems, axioms, andin case of abstraction from naturesome basic properties that are considered true starting points of ...

Bateman–Horn Conjecture
In number theory, the Bateman–Horn conjecture is a statement concerning the frequency of prime numbers among the values of a system of polynomials, named after mathematicians Paul T. Bateman and Roger A. Horn who proposed it in 1962. It provides a vast generalization of such conjectures as the Hardy and Littlewood conjecture on the density of twin primes or their conjecture on primes of the form ''n''2 + 1; it is also a strengthening of Schinzel's hypothesis H. Definition The Bateman–Horn conjecture provides a conjectured density for the positive integers at which a given set of polynomials all have prime values. For a set of ''m'' distinct irreducible polynomials ''ƒ''1, ..., ''ƒ''''m'' with integer coefficients, an obvious necessary condition for the polynomials to simultaneously generate prime values infinitely often is that they satisfy Bunyakovsky's property, that there does not exist a prime number ''p'' that divides their product ''f''( ...

Number Theory
Number theory (or arithmetic or higher arithmetic in older usage) is a branch of pure mathematics devoted primarily to the study of the integers and arithmetic function, integer-valued functions. German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss (1777–1855) said, "Mathematics is the queen of the sciences—and number theory is the queen of mathematics."German original: "Die Mathematik ist die Königin der Wissenschaften, und die Arithmetik ist die Königin der Mathematik." Number theorists study prime numbers as well as the properties of mathematical objects made out of integers (for example, rational numbers) or defined as generalizations of the integers (for example, algebraic integers). Integers can be considered either in themselves or as solutions to equations (Diophantine geometry). Questions in number theory are often best understood through the study of Complex analysis, analytical objects (for example, the Riemann zeta function) that encode properties of the integers, primes ...

Polynomials
In mathematics, a polynomial is an expression (mathematics), expression consisting of indeterminate (variable), indeterminates (also called variable (mathematics), variables) and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and positive-integer powers of variables. An example of a polynomial of a single indeterminate is . An example with three indeterminates is . Polynomials appear in many areas of mathematics and science. For example, they are used to form polynomial equations, which encode a wide range of problems, from elementary word problem (mathematics education), word problems to complicated scientific problems; they are used to define polynomial functions, which appear in settings ranging from basic chemistry and physics to economics and social science; they are used in calculus and numerical analysis to approximate other functions. In advanced mathematics, polynomials are used to construct polynomial rings and algebraic variety ...

London Mathematical Society
The London Mathematical Society (LMS) is one of the United Kingdom's learned societies for mathematics (the others being the Royal Statistical Society (RSS), the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (IMA), the Edinburgh Mathematical Society and the Operational Research Society (ORS). History The Society was established on 16 January 1865, the first president being Augustus De Morgan. The earliest meetings were held in University College, but the Society soon moved into Burlington House, Piccadilly. The initial activities of the Society included talks and publication of a journal. The LMS was used as a model for the establishment of the American Mathematical Society in 1888. Mary Cartwright was the first woman to be President of the LMS (in 1961–62). The Society was granted a royal charter in 1965, a century after its foundation. In 1998 the Society moved from rooms in Burlington House into De Morgan House (named after the society's first president), at 57–5 ...

American Mathematical Society
The American Mathematical Society (AMS) is an association of professional mathematicians dedicated to the interests of mathematical research and scholarship, and serves the national and international community through its publications, meetings, advocacy and other programs. The society is one of the four parts of the Joint Policy Board for Mathematics and a member of the Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences. History The AMS was founded in 1888 as the New York Mathematical Society, the brainchild of Thomas Fiske, who was impressed by the London Mathematical Society on a visit to England. John Howard Van Amringe was the first president and Fiske became secretary. The society soon decided to publish a journal, but ran into some resistance, due to concerns about competing with the American Journal of Mathematics. The result was the ''Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society'', with Fiske as editor-in-chief. The de facto journal, as intended, was influential in in ...

Hilbert Polynomial
In commutative algebra, the Hilbert function, the Hilbert polynomial, and the Hilbert series of a graded commutative algebra finitely generated over a field are three strongly related notions which measure the growth of the dimension of the homogeneous components of the algebra. These notions have been extended to filtered algebras, and graded or filtered modules over these algebras, as well as to coherent sheaves over projective schemes. The typical situations where these notions are used are the following: * The quotient by a homogeneous ideal of a multivariate polynomial ring, graded by the total degree. * The quotient by an ideal of a multivariate polynomial ring, filtered by the total degree. * The filtration of a local ring by the powers of its maximal ideal. In this case the Hilbert polynomial is called the Hilbert–Samuel polynomial. The Hilbert series of an algebra or a module is a special case of the Hilbert–Poincaré series of a graded vector space. The Hilbert ...

Classifying Space For U(n)
In mathematics, the classifying space for the unitary group U(''n'') is a space BU(''n'') together with a universal bundle EU(''n'') such that any hermitian bundle on a paracompact space ''X'' is the pull-back of EU(''n'') by a map ''X'' → BU(''n'') unique up to homotopy. This space with its universal fibration may be constructed as either # the Grassmannian of ''n''-planes in an infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space; or, # the direct limit, with the induced topology, of Grassmannians of ''n'' planes. Both constructions are detailed here. Construction as an infinite Grassmannian The total space EU(''n'') of the universal bundle is given by :EU(n)=\left \. Here, ''H'' denotes an infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space, the ''e''''i'' are vectors in ''H'', and \delta_ is the Kronecker delta. The symbol (\cdot,\cdot) is the inner product on ''H''. Thus, we have that EU(''n'') is the space of orthonormal ''n''-frames in ''H''. The group action of U(''n'') on this space i ...
