https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gonality%20of%20an%20algebraic%20curve | In mathematics, the gonality of an algebraic curve C is defined as the lowest degree of a nonconstant rational map from C to the projective line. In more algebraic terms, if C is defined over the field K and K(C) denotes the function field of C, then the gonality is the minimum value taken by the degrees of field exten... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%B6the%20conjecture | In mathematics, the Köthe conjecture is a problem in ring theory, open . It is formulated in various ways. Suppose that R is a ring. One way to state the conjecture is that if R has no nil ideal, other than {0}, then it has no nil one-sided ideal, other than {0}.
This question was posed in 1930 by Gottfried Köthe (190... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nil%20ideal | In mathematics, more specifically ring theory, a left, right or two-sided ideal of a ring is said to be a nil ideal if each of its elements is nilpotent.
The nilradical of a commutative ring is an example of a nil ideal; in fact, it is the ideal of the ring maximal with respect to the property of being nil. Unfortuna... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruziewicz%20problem | In mathematics, the Ruziewicz problem (sometimes Banach–Ruziewicz problem) in measure theory asks whether the usual Lebesgue measure on the n-sphere is characterised, up to proportionality, by its properties of being finitely additive, invariant under rotations, and defined on all Lebesgue measurable sets.
This was a... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation%20chemistry | Radiation chemistry is a subdivision of nuclear chemistry which studies the chemical effects of ionizing radiation on matter. This is quite different from radiochemistry, as no radioactivity needs to be present in the material which is being chemically changed by the radiation. An example is the conversion of water int... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ore%20condition | In mathematics, especially in the area of algebra known as ring theory, the Ore condition is a condition introduced by Øystein Ore, in connection with the question of extending beyond commutative rings the construction of a field of fractions, or more generally localization of a ring. The right Ore condition for a mult... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasiregular%20representation | This article addresses the notion of quasiregularity in the context of representation theory and topological algebra. For other notions of quasiregularity in mathematics, see the disambiguation page quasiregular.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector%20fields%20on%20spheres | In mathematics, the discussion of vector fields on spheres was a classical problem of differential topology, beginning with the hairy ball theorem, and early work on the classification of division algebras.
Specifically, the question is how many linearly independent smooth nowhere-zero vector fields can be constructed... |
