https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baer%E2%80%93Specker%20group
In mathematics, in the field of group theory, the Baer–Specker group, or Specker group, named after Reinhold Baer and Ernst Specker, is an example of an infinite Abelian group which is a building block in the structure theory of such groups. Definition The Baer–Specker group is the group B = ZN of all integer sequence...

A quarter-wave impedance transformer, often written as λ/4 impedance transformer, is a transmission line or waveguide used in electrical engineering of length one-quarter wavelength (λ), terminated with some known impedance. It presents at its input the dual of the impedance with which it is terminated. The relationsh...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essential%20subgroup
In mathematics, especially in the area of algebra studying the theory of abelian groups, an essential subgroup is a subgroup that determines much of the structure of its containing group. The concept was generalized to essential submodules. Definition A subgroup of a (typically abelian) group is said to be essentia...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homotopy%20fiber
In mathematics, especially homotopy theory, the homotopy fiber (sometimes called the mapping fiber) is part of a construction that associates a fibration to an arbitrary continuous function of topological spaces . It acts as a homotopy theoretic kernel of a mapping of topological spaces due to the fact it yields a lon...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicity%20%28mathematics%29
In mathematics, the multiplicity of a member of a multiset is the number of times it appears in the multiset. For example, the number of times a given polynomial has a root at a given point is the multiplicity of that root. The notion of multiplicity is important to be able to count correctly without specifying excep...
