183231bcb<p><span>STOP NAMING MATH CONCEPTS AFTER PEOPLE!<br><br>CENTURIES of giving unhelpful names of abstract concepts yet NO REAL-WORLD USE found for not just giving a name that actually describes something.<br><br>Wanted to give something a useless unhelpful name anyways just for laughs? We had a a tool for that: it was called naming a specific mathematical concept after a common non-math word (e.g. "normal subgroup" or "regular space.")<br><br>"Yes, please name this space of geometric structures after actual Nazi Teichmuller who didn't even discover it."<br>Statements dreamed up by the AMR assholes.<br><br>Look at what mathematicians have been demanding your respect for all this time. These are REAL names for math concepts used by REAL mathematicians!<br><br>Whitehead's Theorem: Which one? There are more than one mathematician named Whitehead and they each discovered more than one theorem.<br>Pell's Equation: Not discovered by Pell.<br>Cartan-Killing Form: Why are we killing Cartan?<br>Nielsen-Thurston Classification: Are we classifying Thurstons? You can't just say "classification of elements of the mapping class group?" Also there are more than one mathematician named Thurston (including at least one father-son duo).<br><br>"Hello, I study Lie Theory. It's named after Sophus Lie."<br><br>They're telling us directly that they're lying and we're still falling for it!<br><br></span><a href="https://transfem.social/tags/Math" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Math</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/StopDoingMath" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StopDoingMath</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/StopDoingStopDoingMemes" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StopDoingStopDoingMemes</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/LieAlgebras" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LieAlgebras</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/LieTheory" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LieTheory</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/SophusLie" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SophusLie</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/KillingForm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KillingForm</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/CartanKillingForm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CartanKillingForm</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/TeichmullerSpace" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TeichmullerSpace</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/HyperbolicGeometry" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HyperbolicGeometry</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/PellsEquation" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PellsEquation</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/WhiteheadTheorem" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WhiteheadTheorem</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/NielsenThurstonClassification" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NielsenThurstonClassification</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/MappingClassGroups" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MappingClassGroups</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/NormalSubgroup" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NormalSubgroup</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/GroupTheorem" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GroupTheorem</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/RegularSpace" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RegularSpace</a> <a href="https://transfem.social/tags/RegularTopologicalSpace" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RegularTopologicalSpace</a></p>
