Glossary of invariant theory


This page is a glossary of terms in invariant theory.
For descriptions of particular invariant rings, see invariants of a binary form, symmetric polynomials.
For geometric terms used in invariant theory see the glossary of classical algebraic geometry.
Definitions of many terms used in invariant theory can be found in,,,,,,, , and the index to the fourth volume of Sylvester's collected works includes many of the terms invented by him.
