Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 In the formal sciences , the domain of discourse , also called the universe of discourse or simply universe , is the set mathematics set of entities over which certain variable mathematics variable s of interest in some formal treatment may range. The domain of discourse is usually identified in the preliminaries, so that there is no need in the further treatment to specify each time the range of the relevant variables. For example, in an interpretation logic interpretation of first order logic , the domain of discourse is the set of individuals that the quantifier s range over. In one interpretation, the domain of discourse could be the set of real number s in another interpretation, it could be the set of natural number s. If no domain of discourse has been identified, a proposition such as math x x sup 2 sup 2 is ambiguous. If the domain of discourse is the set of real numbers, the proposition is false, with math 1 x 2 as counterexample if the domain is the set of naturals, the proposition is true, since 2 is not the square of any natural number. The term universe of discourse generally refers to the collection of objects being discussed in a specific discourse. In model theoretical semantics, a universe of discourse is the set of entities that a model is based on. The term universe of discourse is generally attributed to Augustus De Morgan 1846 and was also used by George Boole 1854 in his The Laws of Thought Laws of Thought .

If the concept domain knowledge or domain expert is used, we emphasize a specific domain which is an object of the discourse interest problem. Knowledge capture In software engineering , domain knowledge is knowledge about the environment in which the target system operates, for example, software agent s. Domain knowledge is important, because it usually must be learned from software users in the domain as domain specialists experts , rather than from software developers. Expert s domain knowledge frequently informal and ill structured is transformed in computer programs and active data, for example in a set of rules in knowledge bases, by knowledge engineer s. Communicating between end users and software developers is often difficult. They must find a common language to communicate in. Developing enough shared vocabulary to communicate can often take a while. The same knowledge can be included in different domain knowledge.

Other uses Data domain disambiguation Unreferenced date December 2009 In data management and database analysis, a data domain refers to all the unique values which a data element may contain. The rule for determining the domain boundary may be as simple as a data type with an enumeration enumerated list of values. For example, a database table database table that has information about people, with one record per person, might have a gender column . This gender column might be declared as a Data type Strings string data type , and allowed to have one of two known Code metadata code values M for male, F for female and Null SQL NULL for records where gender is unknown or not applicable or arguably U for unknown as a sentinel value . The data domain for the gender column is M , F . In a database normalization normalized data model , the Master data management reference domain is typically specified in a reference table . Following the previous example, a Gender reference table would have exactly two records, one per allowed value excluding NULL. Reference tables are formally related to other tables in a database by the use of foreign key s. Less simple domain boundary rules, if database enforced, may be implemented through a check constraint or, in more complex cases, in a database trigger . For example, a column requiring positive numeric values may have a check constraint declaring that the values must be greater than zero. This definition combines the concepts of domain as an area over which control is exercised and the mathematical idea of a set mathematics set of values of an independent variable for which a function mathematics function is defined.

Time domain is a term used to describe the analysis of mathematical function mathematics function s, or physical signal information theory signal s, with respect to time . In the time domain, the signal or function s value is known for all real number s, for the case of continuous time , or at various separate instants in the case of discrete time . An oscilloscope is a tool commonly used to visualize real world signals in the time domain. Speaking non technically, a time domain graph shows how a signal changes over time, whereas a frequency domain graph shows how much of the signal lies within each given frequency band over a range of frequencies.

A domain wall is a term used in physics which can have one of two distinct but similar meanings in magnetism ... 1995 . ref Magnetism Image Domain wall vectors.svg thumb right 300px Domain wall B with gradual re orientation of the magnetic moments between two 180 degree domains A and C In magnetism , a domain wall is an interface separating magnetic domain s. It is a transition between different magnetic Moment physics moments and usually undergoes an angular displacement of 90 or 180 . Domain wall is a gradual reorientation of individual moments across a finite distance. The domain wall thickness depends on the anisotropy of the material, but on average spans across around 100 150 atoms. The energy of a domain wall is simply the difference between the magnetic moments before and after the domain wall was created. This value is usually expressed as energy per unit wall area. The width of the domain ... moments are aligned with the crystal lattice axes thus reducing the width of the domain wall. Whereas ... the two and the domain wall s width is set as such.

domainmathematicsdomain and range mathematics range of f are contained in Euclidean space of the same dimension . Consider for instance the map f interval mathematics 0,1 &rarr R sup 2 sup with f t t ,0 . This map is injective and continuous, the domain is an open subset of R , but the image is not open ...Invariance of domain is a theorem in topology about homeomorphic subset s of Euclidean space R sup n sup . It states If U is an open set open subset of R sup n sup and f U &rarr R sup n sup is an injective continuous map , then V f U is open and f is a homeomorphism between U and V . The theorem and its proof are due to L.E.J. Brouwer , published in 1912. ref Brouwer L.E.J. Beweis der Invarianz des n dimensionalen Gebiets, Mathematische Annalen 71 1912 , pages 305 315 see also 72 1912 , pages 55 56 ref The proof uses tools of algebraic topology , notably the Brouwer fixed point theorem . Notes The conclusion of the theorem can equivalently be formulated as f is an open map . Normally, to check that f is a homeomorphism, one would have to verify that both f and its inverse function f sup 1 sup are continuous the theorem says that if the domain is an open subset of R sup n sup and the image is also in R sup n sup , then continuity of f sup 1 sup is automatic. Furthermore, the theorem says that if two subsets U and V of R sup n sup are homeomorphic, and U is open, then V must be open as well. Note that V is open as a subset of R sup n sup , and not just in the subspace topology ... ,... . Then f is injective and continuous, the domain is open in l sup &infin sup , but the image is not.

In mathematics , a Lipschitz domain or domain with Lipschitz boundary is a Domain mathematical analysis domain in Euclidean space whose boundary is sufficiently regular in the sense that it can be thought of as locally being the graph of a Lipschitz continuity Lipschitz continuous function . The term is named after the Germany German mathematician Rudolf Lipschitz . Definition Let n N , and let be an open set open and bounded set bounded subset of R sup n sup . Let denote the boundary topology boundary of . Then is said to have Lipschitz boundary , and is called a Lipschitz domain , if, for every point p , there exists a radius r > 0 and a map h sub p sub B sub r sub p Q such that h sub p sub is a bijection h sub p sub and h sub p sub sup &minus 1 sup are both Lipschitz continuous functions h sub p sub B sub r sub p Q sub 0 sub h sub p sub B sub r sub p Q sub sub where math B r p x in mathbb R n x p r math denotes the n dimension al open ball of radius r about p , Q denotes the unit ball B sub 1 sub 0 , and math Q 0 x 1 , dots, x n in Q x n 0 math math Q x 1 , dots, x n in Q x n 0 . math Applications of Lipschitz domains Many of the Sobolev inequality Sobolev embedding theorems require that the domain of study be a Lipschitz domain. Consequently, many partial differential equation s and calculus of variations variational problems are defined on Lipschitz domains.
