No footnotes date September 2011 Expert subject linguistics article date September 2011 In linguistics , an operator is a special variety of determiner linguistics determiner including the interrogative word visible interrogatives , the quantifier s, and the hypothetical invisible pronoun denoted Op . Operators are differentiated from other determiners by their ability to produce topicalization and to have trace linguistics trace s that jump over other trace chains. In English, the wh words are considered visible operators . Acceptance of invisible operators in syntactic theory has been justified on the basis of visible operators or topic marker s in languages such as Japanese language Japanese . All operators are subject to the bijection principle , first proposed by Koopman and Sportiche Every operator A binds exactly one variable and every variable is A bound by exactly one operator. In classical government and binding theory , an operator is usually understood to be a wh word or a quantifier in an A position. Examples Who said he killed John? Everyone likes someone. In the following example, the trace t of a man acts as the complement to the verb shot , and the trace o of the operator when acts as a modifier to the entire verb phrase There was a time when a man would have been shot t for such behavior o .

Primary cyclic groups are characterised among finitely generated abelian group s as the torsion group s that cannot be expressed as a direct sum of two non trivial groups. As such they, along with the group of integer s, form the building blocks of finitely generated abelian groups. The subgroups of a primary cyclic group are linearly ordered by inclusion.

In graph theory , an isomorphism of graph mathematics graph s G and H is a bijection between the vertex sets of G and H math f colon V G to V H , math such that any two vertices u and v of G are adjacent in G if and only if u and v are adjacent in H . This kind of bijection is commonly called edge preserving bijection , in accordance with the general notion of isomorphism being a structure preserving bijection. In the above definition, graphs are understood to be directed graph undirected labeled graph non labeled weighted graph non weighted graphs. However, the notion of isomorphism may be applied to all other variants of the notion of graph, by adding the requirements to preserve the corresponding additional elements of structure arc directions, edge weights, etc., with the following exception. When spoken about graph labeling with unique labels , commonly taken from the integer range 1,..., n , where n is the number of the vertices of the graph, two labeled graphs are said to be isomorphic if the corresponding underlying unlabeled graphs are isomorphic. If an isomorphism exists between two graphs, then the graphs are called isomorphic and we write math G simeq H math . In the case when the bijection is a mapping of a graph onto itself, i.e., when G and H are one and the same graph, the bijection is called an graph automorphism automorphism of G . The graph isomorphism is an equivalence relation on graphs and as such it partitions the class set theory class of all graphs into equivalence class es.

In the mathematical discipline of simplicial homology theory, a simplicial map is a Map mathematics map between simplicial complex es with the property that the images of the vertices of a simplex always span a simplex. Note that this implies that vertices have vertices for images. Simplicial maps are thus determined by their effects on vertices. In particular, there are a finite number of simplicial maps between two given finite simplicial complexes. Simplicial maps induce continuous maps between the underlying polyhedra of the simplicial complexes one simply extends linearly using Barycentric coordinate system mathematics barycentric coordinates .
