Prononciation : [ˌdɪfəʊˈmɔːfɪzəm]
Mot
Contexte : « mathematics »
(noun) a special kind of relationship between two shapes or spaces. It means that you can turn one shape into the other without stretching or breaking it, just like molding clay.
Exemple
The mathematicians showed that the two surfaces are diffeomorphic, meaning you can transform one into the other smoothly.
Exemple
The shapes are not diffeomorphic because you cannot reshape one into the other without tearing it.
Exemple
Can you explain what it means for two shapes to be diffeomorphic?
