An algebraicfunction field is an algebraic extension of the field of univariate rational fraction s over a field mathematics field . The Function field of an algebraic variety function field of an algebraic curve defined over a field K is an algebraicfunction field over K , and every algebraicfunction field may be obtained in this way. The importance of this notion relies on the function field analogy which consists in the fact that almost all theorems on number field s have their counterpart on function fields over a finite field , which is frequently easier to prove. In the context of this analogy, number fields and function fields are usually called global field s . The study of function fields over a finite field has applications in cryptography and error correcting code s. For example, the function field algebraic geometry function field of an elliptic curve an important mathematical tool for public key cryptography is an algebraicfunction field.

In mathematics , an algebraic cycle on an algebraic variety V is, roughly speaking, a homology class on V that is represented by a linear combination of subvarieties of V . Therefore the algebraic cycles on V are the part of the algebraic topology of V that is directly accessible in algebraic geometry .

Algebraic fractions are subject to the same laws as arithmetic fraction s. Terminology In the algebraic fraction math tfrac a b math , the dividend a is called the numerator and the divisor b is called the denominator . The numerator and denominator are called the Term mathematics terms of the algebraic fraction. A complex fraction is a fraction whose numerator or denominator, or both, contains a fraction. A simple fraction contains no fraction either in its numerator or its denominator. A fraction is in lowest terms if the only factor common to the numerator and the denominator is 1. An expression which is not in fractional form is an integral expression . An integral expression can always be written in fractional form by giving it the denominator 1. A mixed expression is the algebraic sum of one or more integral expressions and one or more fractional terms. Rational fractions Main Rational function If the expressions a and b are polynomial s, the algebraic fraction is called a rational algebraic fraction ref cite book author Bansi Lal title Topics in Integral Calculus page 53 year 2006 url http books.google.com books?id RlQ tHlWcxcC&pg PA53&dq 22rational algebraic fraction 22&hl fr&ei cyWcTqe1I5CPswaz5oTsAw&sa X&oi book result&ct result&resnum 1&ved 0CC0Q6AEwAA ref or simply rational fraction . ref name Vinberg ... 2&ved 0CDUQ6AEwATgK ref Rational fractions are also known under the term rational function ... more details
In mathematical logic , an algebraic sentence is one that can be stated using only equations between terms with free variable s. Inequalities and quantifiers are specifically disallowed. Sentential logic is the subset of first order logic involving only algebraic sentences.
