In mathematics , the relative interior of a Set mathematics set is a refinement of the concept of the interior topology interior , which is often more useful when dealing with low dimensional sets placed in higher dimensional spaces. Intuitively, the relative interior of a set contains all points which are not on the edge of the set, relative to the smallest subspace in which this set lies.

Relative valuation is a generic term that refers to the notion of comparing the price of an asset to the market value of similar assets. In the field of securities investment, the idea has led to important practical tools, which could presumably spot pricing anomalies. These tools have subsequently become instrumental in enabling analysts and investors to make vital decisions on asset allocation. Equities In equities , the concept separates into two areas one pertaining to individual equities and the other to indices. Individual equities The most common methodology for individual equities is based on comparing certain financial ratio s or multiples, such as the P B ratio price to book value , P E ratio price to earnings , EV EBITDA , etc., of the equity in question to those of its peers. This type of approach, which is popular as a strategic tool in the financial industry, is mainly statistical and based on historical data. Equity indexes For an equity index the above fails mainly because it is difficult to group indices into peer groups. Consequently, relative valuation here is generally carried out by comparing a national or industry stock index s performance to the economic and market fundamentals of the related industry or country. Those fundamentals may include GDP growth, interest rate and inflation forecasts, as well as earnings growth, among others. This style of comparison is popular among practising economists in their attempt to rationalise the connections between the equity markets and the economy. National equity index are not fully relevant in this respect due ... valuing a bond , the bond finance bond in question will be priced relative to a benchmark, usually ... is determined based on the bond s Credit rating relative to a government security with similar ....

Unreferenced date February 2007 Relative return is a measure of the return of an investment portfolio relative to a theoretical passive reference portfolio or benchmark. In active portfolio management, the aim is to maximize the relative return often subject to a risk constraint . In passive portfolio management, the aim is to obtain a relative return as close to zero as possible, thereby reproducing the return of the theoretical reference portfolio. When the relative return is positive, the portfolio is said to outperform the benchmark. Conversely, when the relative return is negative, the portfolio is said to underperform the benchmark. Within passive portfolio management, the absolute value of the relative return is often called the tracking error , which is confusing since the tracking error is more generally defined as the standard deviation of the relative return. Index fund s are the financial products that use passively managed portfolios. The relative return measure is a useful measure to evaluate the skill of the portfolio manager if the relative return is positive, then the portfolio manager has skill. However, the relative return measure by itself is not sufficient to quantify how much skill a portfolio manager has, since the measure does not take into account the amount of risk that the portfolio manager has taken. In order to compare two outperforming portfolio managers, one should therefore consider not only the relative return, but also the risk taken by each portfolio manager. Juxtaposed with the relative return measure is the absolute return measure, which is used to describe the return of the investment portfolio itself. In recent years, so called absolute ... of financial market, have become popular. Contrary to popular opinion, it is not true that the relative ... positions.

In mathematics , specifically linear algebra and geometry , relative dimension is the dual notion to codimension . In linear algebra, given a quotient space linear algebra quotient map math V to Q math , the difference dim V dim Q is the relative dimension this equals the dimension of the kernel. In fiber bundle s, the relative dimension of the map is the dimension of the fiber. More abstractly, the codimension of a map is the dimension of the cokernel , while the relative dimension of a map is the dimension of the Kernel algebra kernel . These are dual in that the inclusion of a subspace math V to W math of codimension k dualizes to yield a quotient map math W to V math of relative dimension k , and conversely. The additivity of codimension under intersection corresponds to the additivity of relative dimension in a fiber product .

unreferenced date July 2011 Economics sidebar A relative price is the price of a commodity such as a Good economics good or Service economics service in terms of another i.e., the ratio of two prices. A relative price may be expressed in terms of a ratio between any two prices or the ratio between the price of one particular good and a weighted average of all other goods available in the market. A relative price is an opportunity cost . Microeconomics can be seen as the study of how agent economics economic agents react to changes in relative prices. In the demand equation Q f P in which Q is the number of units of a good or service demanded , P is the relative price of the good or service rather than the Real versus nominal value economics nominal price. It is the change in a relative price that prompts a change in demand. For example, if all prices rise by 10 there is no change in any relative prices, so if consumers nominal income and wealth also go up by 10 leaving Real versus nominal value economics real income and real wealth unchanged, then demand for each good or service will be unaffected. But if the price of a particular good goes up by, say, 2 while the prices of the other goods and services go down enough that the overall price level is unchanged, then the relative price of the particular good has increased, and unless the good is a Giffen good the demand for it will go down. Often inflation makes it difficult for agent economics economic agents to immediately distinguish increases in the price of a good which are due to relative price changes from changes in the price which are due to inflation of prices in general. This situation can lead to allocative inefficiency , and is one of the inflation Negative negative effects of inflation .

Refimprove date November 2008 In aeronautics , the relative wind is the direction of movement of the atmosphere relative to an aircraft or an airfoil . It is opposite to the direction of movement of the aircraft or airfoil relative to the atmosphere. Close to any point on the surface of an aircraft or airfoil, the air is moving parallel to the surface but at a great distance from the aircraft or airfoil the movement of the air can be represented by a single Euclidean vector vector . This vector is the relative wind or the free stream velocity vector . ref Clancy, L.J. 1975 , Aerodynamics , Section 5.2, Pitman Publishing Limited, London ISBN 0 273 01120 0 ref The angle between the Chord aircraft chord line of an airfoil and the relative wind defines the angle of attack . The relative wind is of great importance to pilots because exceeding the critical angle of attack will result in a stall aviation stall , regardless of airspeed . Relative wind in freefall Relative wind is also used to describe the airflow relative to an object in freefall through an atmosphere, such as that of a person s body during the freefall portion of a skydive or BASE jump . In a normal skydive the vertical descent of the skydiver creates an upward relative wind. The relative wind strength increases with increased descent rate. The relative wind is directly opposite to the direction of travel. Therefore, when a skydiver exits a forward moving aircraft such as an aeroplane, the relative wind emanates from the direction the aeroplane is facing due to the skydiver s initial forward horizontal momentum. As aerodynamic drag gradually overcomes this forward momentum and, simultaneously, gravity attracts the skydiver downward, the relative wind alters proportionally into an upward vertical direction. This creates ... and creates a variation in the angle of the relative wind from horizontal to vertical. When ... referred to as the hill .
