TL;DR Summary
What is the official name for a field series in mathematics/physics?
I've been working on developing infinitesimal recursion (what I call continuous hierarchy), but I ended up arriving at "field series" instead. My searches didn't seem to come up with anything reasonable (battlefield the video game series), so I'm wondering what the official name for a field series is. Thanks!

What do you mean by field and what by series? Fields are certain rings, and related ones are sometimes a tower of fields or a sequence of fields in case they are contained in one another.

FAQ: What is the official name for a Field Series in mathematics/physics?

What is a Field Series?

A Field Series is a mathematical construct that represents a series of elements in a field, which is a set equipped with two operations (addition and multiplication) that satisfy certain properties. In the context of physics, it may refer to a series expansion of field quantities in terms of some basis or parameters.

What is the official name for a Field Series in mathematics?

The official name for a Field Series in mathematics may vary depending on the context, but it is often referred to as a "power series" or "Taylor series" when discussing functions defined over fields.

Is there a specific notation used for Field Series?

Yes, Field Series are often denoted using summation notation. For example, a power series can be expressed as Σ(a_n * x^n), where a_n are coefficients in the field and x is a variable.

How are Field Series used in physics?

In physics, Field Series are used to approximate field quantities, such as electric or magnetic fields, in various scenarios. They allow for the simplification of complex equations and provide insights into the behavior of physical systems near a point of interest.

Are Field Series applicable in both pure and applied mathematics?

Yes, Field Series are applicable in both pure and applied mathematics. In pure mathematics, they are studied for their theoretical properties, while in applied mathematics, they are used to solve practical problems in engineering, physics, and other fields.
