[[File:Expo02.svg|thumb|Graphs of for various bases :
binary operation
mathematical operation that combines two elements to produce another element
function composition
operation which takes two mathematical functions and makes one function of these
identity element
special type of element of a set with respect to a binary operation on that set, which leaves other elements unchanged when combined with them
inverse element
element with an inverse with respect to a given mathematical operation; element that can 'undo' the effect of another given element
magma
algebraic structure with a binary operation
logical consequence
fundamental concept in logic
commutator
In mathematics, the commutator gives an indication of the extent to which a certain binary operation fails to be commutative. There are different definitions used in group theory and ring theory.
absorbing element
special type of element of a set with respect to a binary composition operation on that set which, when composed with any element of the set, results in the absorbing element itself
modular multiplicative inverse
element which, once multiplied by a given element, gives a congruent of one
Minkowski addition
commutative associative binary operation on subsets of an Abelian group (such as Euclidean space)
relational operator
programming language construct or operator that tests or defines some kind of relation between two entities
wreath product
operation on two groups in group theory
Tor functor
in homological algebra, the left derived functor of the tensor product of modules over a ring
barrel shifter
digital circuit that implements a bit-shift operation
Ext functor
derived functors of the Hom functor
Hom functor
functor mapping hom objects to an underlying category
join and meet
two related operations on a poset in order theory
Circular convolution
mathematical operation
null coalescing operator
binary operator that is part of the syntax for a basic conditional expression in several programming languages
cup product
method of adjoining two cocycles to form a composite cocycle
composition of relations
mathematical operation
cap product
method of adjoining a chain of with a cochain
Elvis operator
binary operator in computer programming
Light's associativity test
algorithm in mathematics
