Finite model theory — is a subfield of model theory that focuses on properties of logical languages, such as first order logic, over finite structures, such as finite groups, graphs, databases, and most abstract machines. It focuses in particular on connections… … Wikipedia
Finite intersection property — In general topology, the finite intersection property is a property of a collection of subsets of a set X . A collection has this property if the intersection over any finite subcollection of the collection is nonempty.DefinitionLet X be a set… … Wikipedia
Finite & Deterministic Discrete Event System Specification — FD DEVS (Finite Deterministic Discrete Event System Specification) is a formalism for modeling and analyzing discrete event dynamic systems in both simulation and verification ways. FD DEVS also provides modular and hierarchical modeling features … Wikipedia
Property B — In mathematics, Property B is a certain set theoretic property. Formally, given a finite set X , a collection C of subsets of X , all of size n , has Property B iff we can partition X into two disjoint subsets Y and Z such that every set in C… … Wikipedia
Finite rank operator — In functional analysis, a finite rank operator is a bounded linear operator between Banach spaces whose range is finite dimensional. Finite rank operators on a Hilbert space A canonical form Finite rank operators are matrices (of finite size)… … Wikipedia
Finite model property — In logic, we say a logic L has the finite model property (fmp for short) if there is a class of models M of L (i.e. each model M is a model of L) such that any non theorem of L is falsified by some finite model in M. Another way of putting this… … Wikipedia

Serre's property FA — Property FA is a property of mathematical groups. Jean Pierre Serre defined property FA in his book Arbres, amalgames, SL 2 (published in English, translated by John Stilwell, as Trees ). A group G is said to have property FA if every action of G … Wikipedia
Kazhdan's property (T) — In mathematics, a locally compact topological group G has property (T) if the trivial representation is an isolated point in its unitary dual equipped with the Fell topology. Informally, this means that if G acts unitarily on a Hilbert space and… … Wikipedia
Approximately finite dimensional C*-algebra — In C* algebras, an approximately finite dimensional, or AF, C* algebra is one that is the inductive limit of a sequence of finite dimensional C* algebras. Approximate finite dimensionality was first defined and described combinatorially by… … Wikipedia
