- linear transformationsplural of linear transformation: A map between vector spaces which preserves the operations of vector addition and scalar multiplication.
- natural transformationsplural of natural transformation: A morphism between a pair of parallel functors such that if each object of the shared domain category subtends a correlated arrow — called a component — in the shared codomain (which arrow represents the …
- affine transformationsplural of affine transformation: A geometric transformation that preserves lines and parallelism, but in general not lengths or angles; (more formally) an automorphism of an affine space: a mapping of an affine space onto itself that …
- Lorentz transformationsplural of Lorentz transformation: A transformation relating the spacetime coordinates of one frame of reference to another in special relativity.
- Legendre transformationsplural of Legendre transformation: Given a function f(x,y,z,...) which is concave up with respect to x (i.e., its second derivative with respect to x is greater than zero), an involutive procedure for replacing x with another variable, say …
- Möbius transformationsplural of Möbius transformation: A transformation of the extended complex plane that is a rational function of the form f(z) = (az + b) / (cz + d), where a, b, c, d are complex numbers such that ad − bc ≠ 0; an automorphism of the complex …
