 DMP: Definitions from Discrete Mathematics
Apportionment may include division of discrete objects, as in the division of seats of a representative government among districts, or may involve division of continuous objects such as dividing a cake among a group of people.
Estate division is a category of fair division which deals with determining a fair method for dividing an estate among a number heirs.
A category of discrete mathematics which deals with whether a given problem has a solution or not.

 MATHS: Category Theory
Category Theory is a way for talking about the relationships between the classes of objects modeled by mathematics and logic.
The original use of the term category was in the idea of a 'categorical' axiom system - an axiom system which defined its objects so exactly that all objects that satisfied the axioms were isomorphic - they mapped into each other, one-to-one, preserving all the axioms and structure.
A Category is a mixture of an algebra and a directed graph.

 Discrete category - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, especially category theory, a discrete category is a category whose only morphisms are the identity morphisms.
Also, a category is discrete if and only if all of its subcategories are full.
The limit of any functor from a discrete category into another category is called a product, while the colimit is called a coproduct.

 RATIONAL NUMBER LEARNING AIDS: TRANSFER FROM CONTINUOUS MODELS TO DISCRETE MODELS
The aid used was an egg carton which, if the subject views the holes as salient, is discrete; if, on the other hand, the subject focuses on the proportion of total area enclosed by the edges of each of the holes, then it is viewed as a continuous entity.
It is not required that the discrete objects which comprise the unit be of the same size or even the same shape, since the appropriate measure of the unit an d subunit relates solely to the cardinality of the sets.
Among the discrete tasks, the data suggests a slight trend favoring the experimental groups; and, among the continuous tasks, there appears to be a sharp difference favoring the experimental groups.

 Springer Online Reference Works
If a category has products of arbitrary small families of objects and equalizers of pairs of morphisms, then it has limits for all functors defined on small categories.
In most modern work in category theory, the unadorned name  "limit" ; is used for this concept (and the dual concept is called a colimit).
Inverse and direct limits were first studied as such in the 1930's, in connection with topological concepts such as Čech cohomology; the general concept of limit was introduced in 1958 by D.M. Kan [a1].

 Empirical Arguments for Phonetic Discreteness
For a small enough difference, moving the difference along the continuum, one should (on the discrete category view) find discrimination flat spots (where the sounds are within the same sensory class) alternating with discrimination bumps (across a boundary between the sensory steps).
So the fact that there are sensory limits relevant to distinguishing phonetic categories from each other in no way justifies a claim that there is a discrete set that can be reliably identified.
On the other hand, it is known that if you give subjects a great deal of practice on just a single speech stimulus, listener's can respond in ways that reveal that their auditory resolution approaches the sensory limits observed for simple tones [Kewley-Port et al., 1988].

 Goldblatt. Topoi: The Categorial Analysis of Logic   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
These categories are examples of preorders: categories in which there is at most one arrow between any two objects (identity corresponds to reflexivity and composition corresponds to transitivity).
A category is complete if it has all limits, co-complete if it has all colimits, bi-complete if it is complete and co-complete, finitely complete if it has all finite limits, finitely co-complete if it has all finite colimits, and finitely bi-complete if it is finitely complete and finitely co-complete.
For Cartesian closed categories, we have 0xA is initial for all A, an arrow A->0 implies A is initial, we can only have a zero object if the category is degenerate (all objects are isomorphic), any arrow 0->A is monic, A^1 is isomorphic to A, A^0 and 1^A are terminal.

 pXtXr data: continuous formulation
The basic spirit of this follows along with the discrete category misclassification formulation examples.
These stories will adopt the CLBH "continuous" perspective, (which doesn't produce results much different from the discrete framework); that is, for purposes here I'm happy to grant the CLBH wish that judges can give a score of 3.11 to a paper (however impractical that may be).
Once an individual's theta is drawn, then we need to construct that individual's score on a specified task, where the student's paper is assumed to be judged/rated with *perfect* accuracy To get the score from a perfectly judged paper simply add task wobble to theta.

That is, we are interested in knowing which category (from a finite set) a particular situation belongs to.
For discrete class problems this is computed by summing the absolute difference between a binary vector that contains a 1 for the actual class value of an instance and 0's for all other classes and the predicted class probability distribution for each instance and then taking the average.
For discrete class problems this is computed in a similar fashion to the mean absolute error.

A rig category is basically the most general sort of category in which we can "add" and "multiply" as we do in a ring - but without negatives, hence the missing letter "n".
It relates the category whose objects are 2-manifolds with a circle as boundary, and whose morphisms are 3-manifolds with corners going between these, to a braided monoidal category "freely generated by a quasitriangular Hopf algebra object".
A 2-rig is a symmetric monoidal cocomplete category where the monoidal structure, which we call x, distributes over the colimits, which we think of as a generalized form of addition.

If we consider the category of subgroups of a given 2-group (well, should probably be a 2-category, and we haven't fully got a handle on sub2-groups yet) with inclusions the morphisms (and I suppose transformations of inclusions too, to be safe) then I would imagine the above construction describes the kernel as its own stabilizer.
