What's abstract algebra?
- A.
It's the study of problems.
- B.
It's the study of curves.
- C.
It's the study of algebraic structures.
- D.
It's the study of distances.
Correct Answer
C. It's the study of algebraic structures.Explanation
Abstract algebra is the study of algebraic structures, which are sets with operations defined on them. It focuses on studying the properties and relationships of these structures, such as groups, rings, and fields. This branch of mathematics explores concepts like symmetry, transformations, and equations, providing a foundation for other areas of mathematics and applications in various fields such as computer science and cryptography. By studying abstract algebra, mathematicians can gain a deeper understanding of the fundamental structures and principles underlying mathematical systems.Rate this question:

What is associate algebra?
- A.
It's an algebraic structure with compatible operation of addition, multiplication, and a scaler multiplication by elements in some fields.
- B.
It's an algebraic structure with incompatible operation of addition, multiplication, and a scaler by elements in some fields.
- C.
It's an algebraic structure with compatible operation of addition, multiplication, by elements in some fields.
- D.
It's an algebraic structure with compatible operation by elements in some fields.
Correct Answer
A. It's an algebraic structure with compatible operation of addition, multiplication, and a scaler multiplication by elements in some fields.Explanation
Associate algebra is an algebraic structure that includes compatible operations of addition, multiplication, and scaler multiplication by elements in some fields. This means that the operations of addition and multiplication follow certain rules and properties, and the scaler multiplication can be performed using elements from a specific set of fields. The compatibility of these operations ensures that the algebraic structure is well-defined and consistent.Rate this question:

What's a vector space?
- A.
It's a collection of objects called vectors, which may be added together and multiplied by numbers called scalars.
- B.
It's a collection of vectors, which may be added together and multiplied by numbers called scalars.
- C.
It's a collection of vectors, which may be added together and multiplied by numbers.
- D.
It's a collection of objects, which may be multiplied by numbers called scalars.
Correct Answer
A. It's a collection of objects called vectors, which may be added together and multiplied by numbers called scalars.Explanation
A vector space is a collection of objects called vectors, which can be combined through addition and multiplication by scalars. This means that vectors can be added to each other and scaled by multiplying them with numbers. This property allows for various mathematical operations and transformations to be performed within the vector space.Rate this question:

What's a function?
- A.
It's a moment between categories.
- B.
It's a map between categories.
- C.
It's a gap between categories.
- D.
It's a table between categories.
Correct Answer
B. It's a map between categories.Explanation
A function is a mathematical concept that describes the relationship between two sets of elements, where each element in the first set is associated with exactly one element in the second set. This association can be thought of as a map between the two sets, where each element in the first set is mapped to a unique element in the second set. Therefore, the correct answer is "It's a map between categories."Rate this question:

What's the other term for coalgebras?
- A.
Alphas
- B.
Omegas
- C.
Cogebras
- D.
Vectors
Correct Answer
C. CogebrasExplanation
Coalgebras are the dual concept of algebras, where instead of operations that combine elements, they have operations that decompose elements. The term "cogebras" is used to refer to these dual structures. Therefore, cogebras are the other term for coalgebras.Rate this question:

What's the other term for Einstein notation?
- A.
Einstein sum.
- B.
Einstein summation.
- C.
Einstein convention.
- D.
Einstein summation convention.
Correct Answer
D. Einstein summation convention.Explanation
The other term for Einstein notation is the Einstein summation convention. This convention simplifies the notation used in tensor calculus by implying summation over repeated indices. It allows for concise representation of mathematical equations involving tensors, making calculations more efficient and easier to understand.Rate this question:

What's a monodoil category?
- A.
It's a category C equipped with a vector.
- B.
It's a category C equipped with a factor.
- C.
It's a category C equipped with a bifunctor.
- D.
It's a category C equipped with a trifunctor.
Correct Answer
C. It's a category C equipped with a bifunctor.Explanation
A monoidal category is a category C equipped with a bifunctor. A bifunctor is a functor that takes two arguments, in this case, objects from C, and produces an object in C. This bifunctor is used to define a tensor product operation on objects in C, which satisfies certain associativity and unit conditions. This tensor product operation allows for the combination or "multiplication" of objects in C, similar to how multiplication is defined in algebraic structures like groups or rings. Therefore, the correct answer is that a monoidal category is a category C equipped with a bifunctor.Rate this question:

It's between 2 associative algebras, A and B over a field K.
- B.
It's between 3 associative algebras, A and B over a field K.
- C.
It's between 4 associative algebras, A and B over a field K.
- D.
It's between 2 associative algebras, A and B over a field C.
Correct Answer
A. It's between 2 associative algebras, A and B over a field K.Explanation
A homomorphism is a mapping between two associative algebras, A and B, over a field K. It preserves the algebraic structure and operations between the two algebras. The field K represents the underlying field over which the algebras are defined.Rate this question:

What's bialgebra?
- A.
It's a space over K which is both a unital associative
- B.
It's a vector space over K.
- C.
It's a vector space over M which is both a unital associative
- D.
It's a vector space over K which is a unital associative
Correct Answer
D. It's a vector space over K which is a unital associativeExplanation
A bialgebra is a vector space over K that possesses both a unital associative algebra structure and a coassociative coalgebra structure. This means that it has both multiplication and comultiplication operations that satisfy certain properties. The fact that it is a vector space over K indicates that its elements are linear combinations of vectors from K. The unital associative property means that the multiplication operation is both associative and has a multiplicative identity.Rate this question:
