Representation theorem — In mathematics, a representation theorem is a theorem that states that every abstract structure with certain properties is isomorphic to a concrete structure. For example, *in algebra, ** Cayley s theorem states that every group is isomorphic to… … Wikipedia
Riesz representation theorem — There are several well known theorems in functional analysis known as the Riesz representation theorem. They are named in honour of Frigyes Riesz. The Hilbert space representation theorem This theorem establishes an important connection between a … Wikipedia
Stone's representation theorem for Boolean algebras — In mathematics, Stone s representation theorem for Boolean algebras states that every Boolean algebra is isomorphic to a field of sets. The theorem is fundamental to the deeper understanding of Boolean algebra that emerged in the first half of… … Wikipedia
Martingale representation theorem — In probability theory, the martingale representation theorem states that a random variable which is measurable with respect to the filtration generated by a Brownian motion can be written in terms of an Itô integral with respect to this Brownian… … Wikipedia
Integral representation theorem for classical Wiener space — In mathematics, the integral representation theorem for classical Wiener space is a result in the fields of measure theory and stochastic analysis. Essentially, it shows how to decompose a function on classical Wiener space into the sum of its… … Wikipedia
Skorokhod's representation theorem — In mathematics and statistics, Skorokhod s representation theorem is a result that shows that a weakly convergent sequence of probability measures whose limit measure is sufficiently well behaved can be represented as the distribution/law of a… … Wikipedia
Representation theory — This article is about the theory of representations of algebraic structures by linear transformations and matrices. For the more general notion of representations throughout mathematics, see representation (mathematics). Representation theory is… … Wikipedia
Representation theory of finite groups — In mathematics, representation theory is a technique for analyzing abstract groups in terms of groups of linear transformations. See the article on group representations for an introduction. This article discusses the representation theory of… … Wikipedia
Representation theory of SL2(R) — In mathematics, the main results concerning irreducible unitary representations of the Lie group SL2(R) are due to Gelfand and Naimark (1946), V. Bargmann (1947), and Harish Chandra (1952). Structure of the complexified Lie algebra We choose a… … Wikipedia
Representation theory of SU(2) — In the study of the representation theory of Lie groups, the study of representations of SU(2) is fundamental to the study of representations of semisimple Lie groups. It is the first case of a Lie group that is both a compact group and a non… … Wikipedia
