 Operator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Operators are often in practice just partial functions, a common phenomenon in the theory of differential equations since there is no guarantee that the derivative of a function exists.
Three main operators are key to vector calculus, the operator ∇, known as gradient, where at a certain point in a scalar field forms a vector which points in the direction of greatest change of that scalar field.
Operators as observables are a key part of the theory of quantum mechanics.

Algebraic topology and differential geometry provide tools such as topological K-theory, de Rham cohomology, differential calculus on manifolds, and index theory, which can be reformulated purely algebraically in terms of the commutative ring of continuous or smooth functions on the underlying space.
These techniques are ultimately based on the theory of operator algebras and on homological algebra, whereas many interesting examples in noncommutative geometry come from Lie groupoids and their associated Lie algebroids and convolution algebras.
It is particularly important that they have finished first courses in algebra, functional analysis and Hilbert spaces, topology, and differential geometry.

Overloading, in which addition, say, is thought of as a single operator able to act on numbers, vectors, matrices...
This is not commonly used for operators taking greater than 2 arguments, ie binary operators.
In that context operator often means a linear transformation from a Hilbert space to another, or (more abstractly) an element of a C* algebra.

 php-deluxe.net - description: Operator
In mathematics, an '''operator''' is some kind of function+(mathematics); if it comes with a specified type of Operand as function+domain, it is no more than another way of talking of functions of a given type.
To begin with, the usage of '''''operator''''' in mathematics is subsumed in the usage of ''function+(mathematics)'': an operator can be taken to be some special kind of function.
The expectation operator in probability+theory, for example, has random+variables as domain (and is also a functional+(mathematics)).

I had planned to write this using operator overload, but found that it was more efficient not to.
I plan to expand the program later for larger, more difficult groups (for example, the set of all rotations and reflections on a figure....) It would be nice to have a program that would find all of the elements of a particular group.
As a reminder, a group is a non-empty set G and a binary operation (usually multiplication or addition) that satisfies three properties.

Banach algebras are the natural context for the spectral theory of linear operators and the Fourier and Laplace transforms.
Future work will study the homomorphisms and modules of the algebras with a view to determining how typical their seemingly strange properties are of radical algebras, and to using them as models for quasinilpotent linear operators exhibiting novel features.
Another direction taken by my research on Banach algebras is to investigate the algebraic properties of algebras of operators on Banach spaces and relate them to the structure of the underlying Banach space.

Cuntz-Krieger algebras have traditionally been associated to {0, 1}-matrices and the associated subshifts arising in topological dynamics and ergodic theory.
This approach is particularly useful for studying problems invovling group actions on graphs, and the new families of Cuntz-Krieger algebras have proved useful as models for the classification program of Kirchberg-Phillips and in the study of noncommutative quantum spaces.
In modern quantum theories operator algebras are used to describe topological and geometrical aspects of the underlying quantum spaces.

Most C++ operators are aliases for functions with names made from the keyword operator followed by the operator symbol.
In most cases we have two choices, the operator function can be a member function or a global function (which can be declared a friend, if necessary).
In the case of commutative arithmetic operators, the behavior of the operator*() global function is preferred over the behavior of the operator+() member function, but there are situations where the reverse is true.

operator in this context is called a binary arithmetic operator because it takes two values.

All of these operators can be similarly overloaded for complex arithmetic, allowing us to build a wide range of expressions involving complex numbers.

Twisted modules for vertex operator algebras arise in physics as the basic building blocks for "orbifold" conformal field theory, and arise in mathematics in the representation theory of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras.
One of these two constructions involves an operator based on the lattice, and the second involves an operator based on a coordinate transformation of the underlying conformal geometry modeled on propagating strings.
The Jacobi identity for vertex operator algebras incorporates a family of "cross-brackets," including the Lie bracket, and expresses these brackets as the product of an "iterate" of vertex operators with a suitable form of the formal delta function.

 OUP: Quantum Symmetries on Operator Algebras: Evans   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The theory of operator algebras was initiated by von Neumann and Murray as a tool for studying group representations and as a framework for quantum mechanics, and has since kept in touch with its roots in physics as a framework for quantum statistical mechanics and the formalism of algebraic quantum field theory.
However, in 1981, the study of operator algebras took a new turn with the introduction by Vaughan Jones of subfactor theory and remarkable connections were found with knot theory, 3-manifolds, quantum groups and integrable systems in statistical mechanics and conformal field theory.
The purpose of this book, one of the first in the area, is to look at these combinatorial-algebraic developments from the perspective of operator algebras; to bring the reader to the frontline of research with the minimum of prerequisites from classical theory.

There is no way one can decently understand and implement operator overloading without understanding the basics of a function that returns a reference.
There is an operator "+" defined for (lets say) integers, and floats and doubles.
But there is a second reason why an overloaded assignment operator is needed: to enforce proper deletion.
