  Scheme (mathematics) - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
In mathematics, a scheme is an important concept connecting the fields of algebraic geometry, commutative algebra and number theory.
Schemes were introduced by Alexander Grothendieck so as to broaden the notion of algebraic variety; some consider schemes to be the basic object of study of modern algebraic geometry.
Technically, a scheme is a topological space together with commutative rings for all its open sets, which arises from "gluing together" spectra (spaces of prime ideals) of commutative rings.

 NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Glossary of scheme theory
In mathematics, in the fields of general topology and particularly of algebraic geometry, a generic point P of a topological space X is a point such that every point Q of X is a specialization of P, in the sense of the specialization order (or pre-order).
In algebraic geometry, a field of mathematics, an étale morphism is an algebraic analogue of the notion of a local isomorphism in the complex analytic topology.
In mathematics, in particular in the theory of schemes in algebraic geometry, a flat morphism f from a scheme X to a scheme Y is a morphism such that the induced map on every stalk is a flat map of rings, i.

 Glossary of scheme theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For example, we can speak of locally noetherian schemes, namely those which are covered by the spectra of Noetherian rings; and we say that a scheme is noetherian when it is covered by 'finitely' many spectra of noetherian rings.
For example, one might say of a scheme that it is connected which simply means that the underlying topological space is connected.
A scheme X is said to be irreducible when (as a topological space) it is not the union of two closed subsets except if one is equal to X.

Alternatively you can apply to return to the UK from abroad under the scheme no later than one year after you complete your course (as shown by the date your relevant leave as a student expires).
This will be available from the "all forms" section of this website when the scheme launches on 1 May 2007.

 Guide to the Mathematics Subject Classification Scheme
One way to divide the mathematics literature is to decide which books and articles are designed to reveal the structure of mathematics itself, and which are intended to apply mathematics to closely allied areas.
The second broad part of the mathematics literature includes those areas which could be considered either independent disciplines or central parts of mathematics, as well as those areas which clearly use mathematics but are interested in non-mathematical ideas too.
Mathematically, these are solutions to the Laplace equation Del(u)=0; physically, they are the functions giving the potential energy throughout space resulting from some masses or electric charges.

 NAEP - What Does the 2005 Mathematics Assessment Measure?
The revisions made to the mathematics framework for the 2005 assessment are intended to reflect recent curricular emphases and to include clear and more specific objectives for each grade level.
Mathematical complexity is categorized as low, moderate, or high, and each level of complexity includes aspects of knowing and doing mathematics, such as reasoning, performing procedures, understanding concepts, or solving problems.
The complexity dimension builds on the dimensions of mathematical ability (conceptual understanding, procedural knowledge, and problem solving) and mathematical power (reasoning, connections, and communication) that were used in the mathematics framework for the 1996-2003 NAEP assessments.

Mathematically, this progression could continue to infinity with the bottom level always consisting of approximately 83.3% of all distributors.
The reality of a pyramid scheme is that it is irrelevant whether it is possible to have exponential growth that would exceed the world's population.
These schemes are promoted with idealized, hypotheical examples so if you talk about how they are really structured (as opposed to how they are promoted) you get the response "well, that's not what the plan shows." So I dissect them based on what they tell people they should do.

There is general recognition that mathematics today has gotten out of control, in that no one seems to be able to get a "good grasp" of mathematics as a whole.
We believe in the idea of a powerful organizational scheme for mathematics, that would put the myriad advances into some clear general picture that is fully intelligible to the general mathematical community - and largely to other scholarly communities as well.
There seems to be a lot of serious mathematics involved in sorting out just when finite additivity enough, and just when countable additivity must be invoked, and even when countable additivity is not good enough (this would involve highly pathological sets unavailable without the axiom of choice).

One of Galileo's primary considerations was to incorporate mathematics into our very conception of how to describe and reason about the world.3 He makes this case in a number of places, but most notably in his famous Dialogue on the Two Chief World Systems.
Since Galileo is here talking about mathematics, it might be thought that he is concerned only to claim that we can know some of the truths of mathematics as well as God can.

 pyramid schemes, chain letters and Ponzi schemes
A pyramid scheme is called a pyramid scheme because of the shape of a pyramid: a three dimensional triangle.
Thus, the result of all these schemes is inevitable: at best, a few people walk away with a lot of money, while most recruits lose whatever money they put into the scheme.
The police pyramid schemes are called "investment clubs" and have attractive names such as "The Friendship Investment Club" and "A Gift Network." They're sold to investors with the assurance that they are perfectly legal, approved by the IRS or a CPA, and that they definitely are not a pyramid scheme.
