Translations

Noun

indeterminate (plural indeterminates)

  1. (algebra, strict sense) A symbol that resembles a variable or parameter but is used purely formally and neither signifies nor is ever assigned a particular value;
    (loose sense) a variable.
    • 1862, H. J. Stephen Smith, Report on the Theory of Numbers—Part III, Report of the 31st Meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, British Association for the Advancement of Science, page 292,
      The form is linear, quadratic, cubic, biquadratic or quartic, quintic, &c., according to its order in respect of the indeterminates it contains; and binary, ternary, quaternary, &c., according to the number of its indeterminates. Thus x 2 + y 2 {\displaystyle x^{2}+y^{2}} is a binary quadratic form, x 3 + y 3 + z 3 − 3 x y z {\displaystyle x^{3}+y^{3}+z^{3}-3xyz} is a ternary cubic form.
    • 1892, Henry B. Fine, Kronecker and His Arithmetical Theory of the Algebraic Equation, Thomas S. Fiske, Harold Jacoby (editors), Bulletin of the New York Mathematical Society, Volume 1, New York Mathematical Society, page 179,
      Such a factor is therefore an integral function of x {\displaystyle x} and the indeterminates u 1 , u 2 , … u n {\displaystyle u_{1},u_{2},\dots u_{n}} with coefficients belonging to the domain of rationality ( R ′ , R ″ , . . ) {\displaystyle (R',R'',..)} and may be represented by g ( x , u 1 , u 2 , . . u n ) {\displaystyle g(x,u_{1},u_{2},..u_{n})} .
    • 2006, Alexander B. Levin, Difference Algebra, M. Hazewinkel, Handbook of Algebra, page 251,
      Let T = T σ {\displaystyle T=T_{\sigma }} and let S {\displaystyle S} be the polynomial R {\displaystyle R} -algebra in the set of indeterminates { y i , τ } i ∈ I , τ ∈ T {\displaystyle \left\{y_{i,\tau }\right\}_{i\in I,\tau \in T}} with indices from the set I × T {\displaystyle I\times T} .

Usage notes

The distinction between indeterminate and variable when discussing, say, a polynomial, is often overlooked: an indeterminate is regarded as a type of variable. In fact, the distinction relates to the context: i.e., whether one is discussing a polynomial per se (a formal expression consisting of coefficients and indeterminates) or the function that the polynomial represents when the indeterminate is considered a variable. Moreover, some authors choose to use the terms indeterminate and variable interchangeably.
