Extension (semantics)

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

The extension of an idea consists of the things that it applies to; it contrasts with intension. This general notion is from semantics, and has been applied to some other fields:

In philosophical semantics or philosophy of language, the extension of a word, phrase, or concept is the set of things it extends to, or applies to. So the extension of the word "dog" includes all the dogs in the world: Fido, Rover, Lassie, Rex, and so on. The extension of the phrase "Wikipedia readers" includes each person who has ever read Wikipedia, including the person reading these words right now. Extension is one of the meanings of "meaning". Many philosophers argue that the meaning of a word is sometimes just the things that the word picks out, or applies to.

Sometimes additional wrinkles are thrown in. For example, if "dog" referred only to all the dogs currently in the world, then it would be technically incorrect to refer to an imaginary dog or a dead dog as a "dog". Since this is an unsavory conclusion, the extension is often taken to pick out objects not in the current world but in a set of "possible worlds". In this case, the extension of "dog" would include all the dogs in all possible worlds, including worlds consistent with the past, or imaginary worlds.

In mathematics, the extension of a mathematical concept is the set that specifies that concept. This can mean different things in different cases, and there is no universal definition of the term "extension". For example, the extension of a function is a set of ordered pairs that pair up the arguments and values of the function; in other words, the function's graph. The extension of an object in abstract algebra, such as a group, is the underlying set of the object.The extension of a set is, of course, the set itself. That a set can capture the notion of the extension of anything is the idea behind the axiom of extensionality in axiomatic set theory.

In computer science, some database textbooks use the term intension to refer to the schema of a database, and extension to refer to particular instances of a database.

Extension problem

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

In group theory, if the factor group G/K is isomorphic to H, one says that G is an extension of K by H.

To consider some examples, if G = H × K, then '\'G is an extension of both H and K. More generally, if G is a semidirect product of K and H, then G is an extension of K by H'', so such products as the wreath product provide further examples of extensions.

The question of what groups G are extensions of K is called the extension problem, and has been studied heavily since the late nineteenth century. As to its motivation, consider that the composition series of a finite group is a finite sequence of subgroups {Ai}, where each Ai+1 is an extension of Ai by some simple group. The classification of finite simple groups gives us a complete list of finite simple groups; so the solution to the extension problem gives us enough information to construct and classify all finite groups in general.

We can use the language of diagrams to provide a more flexible definition of extension: a group G is an extension of a group K by a group H if and only if there is an exact sequence:

1 → KGH → 1

where 1 denotes the trivial group with a single element. This definition is more general in that it does not require that K be a subgroup of G; instead, K is isomorphic to a normal subgroup K* of G, and H is isomorphic to G/K*.

mention Ext functor; mention that extensions are known

Field extension

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

In abstract algebra, an extension of a field K is a field L which contains K as a subfield. For example, C (the field of complex numbers) is an extension of R (the field of real numbers), and R is itself an extension of Q (the field of rational numbers). The notation L/K is often used to denote the fact that L is an extension of K.

More generally, an extension of K is a separate pair of fields K* and L, where L contains K* as a subfield, and K is isomorphic to K*. Where it does not cause confusion, we identify K and K*, as above and below.

Given a field extension L/K, L can be considered as a vector space over K, with vector addition being the field addition on L, and scalar multiplication being a restriction of the field multiplication on L. The dimension of this vector space is called the degree of the extension, and is denoted [L : K]. The extension is said to be finite or infinite according as the degree is finite or infinite. For example, [C : R] = 2, so this extension is finite. By contrast, [R : Q] = c (the cardinality of the continuum), so this extension is infinite. If M is an extension of L which is an extension of K, then [M : K] = [M : L].[L : K].

If L is an extension of K, then an element of L which is a root of a nonzero polynomial over K is said to be algebraic over K. If it is not algebraic then it is said to be transcendental. (The special case where L = C and K = Q is particularly important. See Algebraic number and Transcendental number.) If every element of L is algebraic over K, then the extension L/K is said to be algebraic, otherwise it is said to be transcendental. If every element of L \\ K is transcendental over K, then the extension is said to be pure transcendental. It can be shown that an extension is algebraic if and only if it is the union of its finite subextensions. In particular, every finite extension is algebraic. For example, C/R, being finite, is algebraic. But R/Q is transcendental, although not pure transcendental. See Algebraic extension for more information on algebraic extensions.

If L/K is a field extension and V is a subset of L, then the field K(V) is defined to be the smallest subfield of L which contains K and V. It consists of all those elements of L which can be gotten using a finite number of field operations +, -, *, / applied to elements from K and V. If L = K(V), we say that L is generated by V.

A field extension generated by a single element is called a simple extension. A simple extension is finite if generated by an algebraic element, and pure transcendental if generated by a transcendental element. For example, C is a simple extension of R, as it is generated by i (the square root of minus one). The extension R/Q is not simple, as it is neither finite nor pure transcendental.

A field extension which has a Galois group is called a Galois extension. If the Galois group is Abelian, then the extension is called an Abelian extension. For example, C/R is a Abelian extension, its Galois group being of order 2. But R/Q is not a Galois extension, as the only field automorphism of R is the identity automorphism.

File extension

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

File extensions are a mechanism used in some operating systems to denote a computer file's format. While in systems such as Unix they are only used by convention, in other systems, like DOS, they're hard-coded on the system level.

Typically, an "extension" is a series of characters following the file's name, separated by a period. For example, a file named "document.txt" would typically be one whose name is "document" and which contains plain text.

DOS operating systems (including Windows 3.x) limit the number of characters in an extension to three. 32-bit Windows operating systems such as Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows XP include a patch at the interface level which simulates a limit of 256 characters in FAT filesystems; at the system level, the three-character limitation remains, albeit invisible to most users. The NTFS filsystems available with NT, 2000 and XP don't have this limitation.

Depending on the settings of the shell/file browser the file extension may not be shown. Malicious users who spread a computer virus or computer worm may use a file name like LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.TXT.vbs which then shows up as LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.TXT. However, it only shows up as that if the user has file extensions disabled. (Microsoft's operating systems do this by default). Thus, to a user who has file extensions hidden, this looks like a harmless text file rather than a computer program written in VBScript.
