This article itemizes the various lists of mathematics topics. Some of these lists link to hundreds of articles; some link only to a few. The template to the right includes links to alphabetical lists of all mathematical articles. This article brings together the same content organized in a manner better suited for browsing.

The purpose of this list is not similar to that of the Mathematics Subject Classification formulated by the American Mathematical Society. Many mathematics journals ask authors of research papers and expository articles to list subject codes from the Mathematics Subject Classification in their papers. The subject codes so listed are used by the two major reviewing databases, Mathematical Reviews and Zentralblatt MATH. This list has some items that would not fit in such a classification, such as list of exponential topics and list of factorial and binomial topics, which may surprise the reader with the diversity of their coverage.

Areas of advanced mathematics

See also Areas of mathematics and Glossary of areas of mathematics.

As a rough guide this list is divided into pure and applied sections although in reality these branches are overlapping and intertwined.

Pure mathematics

Algebra

Algebra includes the study of algebraic structures, which are sets and operations defined on these sets satisfying certain axioms. The field of algebra is further divided according to which structure is studied; for instance, group theory concerns an algebraic structure called group.

Calculus and analysis

  • Glossary of general topology
  • List of mathematical properties of points
  • Glossary of Riemannian and metric geometry
  • Glossary of scheme theory

Combinatorics

Combinatorics concerns the study of discrete (and usually finite) objects. Aspects include "counting" the objects satisfying certain criteria (enumerative combinatorics), deciding when the criteria can be met, and constructing and analyzing objects meeting the criteria (as in combinatorial designs and matroid theory), finding "largest", "smallest", or "optimal" objects (extremal combinatorics and combinatorial optimization), and finding algebraic structures these objects may have (algebraic combinatorics).

  • Outline of combinatorics
  • List of graph theory topics
  • Glossary of graph theory

Logic

Logic is the foundation which underlies mathematical logic and the rest of mathematics. It tries to formalize valid reasoning. In particular, it attempts to define what constitutes a proof.

  • List of Boolean algebra topics
  • List of first-order theories
  • List of large cardinal properties
  • List of mathematical logic topics
  • Glossary of order theory
  • List of set theory topics

Number theory

Number theory studies the natural, or whole, numbers. One of the central concepts in number theory is that of the prime number, and there are many questions about primes that appear simple but whose resolution continues to elude mathematicians.

  • List of algebraic number theory topics
  • List of number theory topics
  • List of recreational number theory topics
  • Glossary of arithmetic and Diophantine geometry
  • List of prime numbers--not just a table, but a list of various kinds of prime numbers (each with an accompanying table)

Applied mathematics

Dynamical systems and differential equations

A differential equation is an equation involving an unknown function and its derivatives.

In a dynamical system, a fixed rule describes the time dependence of a point in a geometrical space. The mathematical models used to describe the swinging of a clock pendulum, the flow of water in a pipe, or the number of fish each spring in a lake are examples of dynamical systems.

  • List of dynamical systems and differential equations topics
  • List of partial differential equation topics

  • List of mathematical topics in classical mechanics
  • List of mathematical topics in quantum theory
  • List of mathematical topics in relativity
  • List of string theory topics

Computation

  • List of algorithm general topics
  • List of computability and complexity topics
  • Lists for computational topics in geometry and graphics

Information theory and signal processing

Information theory is a branch of applied mathematics and electrical engineering involving the quantification of information. Historically, information theory was developed to find fundamental limits on compressing and reliably communicating data.

Signal processing is the analysis, interpretation, and manipulation of signals. Signals of interest include sound, images, biological signals such as ECG, radar signals, and many others. Processing of such signals includes filtering, storage and reconstruction, separation of information from noise, compression, and feature extraction.

  • List of information theory topics
  • List of algebraic coding theory topics
  • List of cryptography topics

Probability and statistics

Probability theory is the formalization and study of the mathematics of uncertain events or knowledge. The related field of mathematical statistics develops statistical theory with mathematics. Statistics, the science concerned with collecting and analyzing data, is an autonomous discipline (and not a subdiscipline of applied mathematics).

  • List of probability topics
  • List of stochastic processes topics
  • List of probability distributions
  • Catalog of articles in probability theory
  • List of statistics topics
  • Outline of regression analysis

Game theory is a branch of mathematics that uses models to study interactions with formalized incentive structures ("games"). It has applications in a variety of fields, including economics, evolutionary biology, political science, social psychology and military strategy.

  • Glossary of game theory
  • List of games in game theory

Operations research

Operations research is the study and use of mathematical models, statistics and algorithms to aid in decision-making, typically with the goal of improving or optimizing performance of real-world systems.
