algebras (0 synonym found)

Definition of algebras:

(n) : (uncountable, mathematics) Elementary algebra: A system for representing and manipulating unknown quantities (variables) in equations.
(n) : (uncountable, mathematics, sometimes capitalized) Abstract algebra: A broad field of study in modern mathematics (often mentioned alongside analysis) loosely characterized by its concern for abstraction and symmetry, dealing with the behavior, classification, and application of a large class of objects (called algebraic structures) and the maps between them (called, most generally, morphisms).
(n) : (countable, mathematics, algebra) Any of several objects of study in Algebra
(n) : (figurative) A system or process (especially one that is complex or convoluted) that substitutes one thing for another, or uses signs or symbols to represent concepts or ideas.
(n) : (countable, set theory, mathematical analysis) A collection of subsets of a given set, such that this collection contains the empty set, and the collection is closed under unions and complements (and thereby also under intersections and differences).
(n) : An algebraic structure consisting of a module over a commutative ring (or a vector space over a field) along with an additional binary operation that is bilinear over module (or vector) addition and scalar multiplication.
