Homoeopathic Repertory The need of repertory came to Hahnemann, when big numbers of the symptoms came in existence and created problem to him to memorise these symptoms for prescribing purposes. Hahnemann prepared a referal material, which is having 4239 pages in total four volumes.
Homoeroticism Homoeroticism refers to same-sex love and desire, most especially as it is depicted or manifested in the visual arts and literature. It can also be found in performative forms; from theatre to the theatricality of uniformed movements (e.
Homoeroticist A Homoeroticist is an alternative for the term homosexual. The term homosexual was coined by Karl-Maria Kertbeny, and he took it from both Greek and Latin, which is considered taboo by some; this is why many homosexuals and lesbians use the term homoeroticist, since it is more grammatically correct.
Homogametic sex Homogametic sex refers to the gender of a species in which both sex chromosomes are identical. For example, in humans, females, with two X sex chromosomes, would be referred to as the homogametic sex while males, with one X and one Y sex chromosomes, would be referred to as the heterogametic sex.
Homogeneous (large cardinal property) In the context of a large cardinal property, a subset, S, of D is homogeneous for a function f means that for some natural number n, Dn is the domain of f and for some element r of the range of f, every member of Sn is mapped to r. That is, f is constant on the n-tuples of elements of S.
Homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions Homogeneous reactions are chemical reactions in which the reactants are in the same phase, while heterogeneous reactions have reactants in two or more phases. Reactions that take places on the surface of a catalyst of a different phase are also heterogeneous.
Homogeneous coordinate system A homogeneous coordinate system is a coordinate system in which there is an extra dimension, used most commonly in computer science to specify whether the given coordinates represent a vector (if the last coordinate is zero) or a point (if the last coordinate is non-zero).
Homogeneous coordinates In mathematics, homogeneous coordinates, introduced by August Ferdinand Möbius, allow affine transformations to be easily represented by a matrix. Also they make calculations possible in projective space just as Cartesian coordinates do in Euclidean space.
Homogeneous function In mathematics, a homogeneous function is a function with multiplicative scaling behaviour: if the argument is multiplied by some factor, then the result is multiplied by some power of this factor. Examples are given by (the functions associated to) homogeneous polynomials.
Homogeneous space In mathematics, in particular in the theory of Lie groups, algebraic groups and topological groups, a homogeneous space for a group G is a manifold or topological space X on which G acts by symmetry in a transitive way; it is not assumed that the action of G is faithful. That is, there is a group action of G on X, respecting the given geometric structure of X, and making X into a single G-orbit.
Homogeneously staining region Homogeneously staining region (also HSR) is one type of change in a chromosome's structure which is frequently observed in the nucleus of human cancer cells. In the region of a chromosome where a HSR occurs, a segment of the chromosome, which presumably contains a gene or genes that give selective advantage to the progression of the cancer, is amplified or duplicated many times.
Homogeneously Suslin set In descriptive set theory, a set S is said to be homogeneously Suslin if it is the projection of a homogeneous tree. S is said to be kappa-homogeneously Suslin if it is the projection of a kappa-homogeneous tree.
Homogenocene Homogenocene (from old Greek: homo=same, genos=kind, kainos=new) is a term used to define our current ecological era, in which biodiversity is diminishing and ecosystems around the globe seem more and more similar one to another.
Homoglyph In typography, a homoglyph is one of a pair of characters with shapes that are either identical, or cannot be differentiated by quick visual inspection. This designation is also applied to sequences of characters sharing these properties.
Homography Homography is a concept in the mathematical science of geometry. It is defined as a relation between two figures, such that to any point in one figure corresponds one and only one point in the other, and vise versa.
Homogyne alpina Homogyne alpina, Alpine coltsfoot or purple colt's-foot, is a rhizomatous herb in the Asteraceae family, which is often used as an ornamental plant. In addition, this plant has purple-red flowers, and it is usually associated with the gall flies Ensina sonchi and Acidia cognata.
Homochirality Homochirality is a term used to refer to a group of molecules that possess the same sense of chirality. Molecules involved are not necessarily the same compound, but similar groups are arranged in the same way around a central atom.
Homoiconicity In computer programming, homoiconicity is a property of some programming languages, in which the primary representation of programs is also a data structure in a primitive type of the language itself, from homo meaning the same and icon meaning representation.
Homoiousian Homoiousianism (from the Greek όμοιος meaning similar and ουσία meaning essence or being) was a 4th century CE movement which arose in the early period of the Christian religion out of a wing of Arianism. It was an attempt to reconcile the seemingly irreconcilable views of the pro-Nicene homoousians, who believed that God the father and Jesus his son were identical in substance, with the "neo-Arian" position that God the father is "incomparable" and therefore the Son can not be described in any sense as "like in substance or attributes" but only "like" (ομολοζ) the Father in some suborbinate sense of the term.
Homokaasu Homokaasu (Finnish name, literally gay-gas) is a fictitious poisonous chemical substance, that is supposedly an odorless and invisible gas at room temperature. It is a Finnish urban legend, and is often the subject of running gags on Finnish Usenet newsgroups.
Homologation Homologation is a technical term, derived from the Greek homologos (ομόλογος) for "agree", which is generally used in English to signify the granting of approval by an official authority. This may be a court of law, a government department, or an academic or professional body, any of which would normally work from a set of strict rules or standards to determine whether such approval should be given.
Homologene HomoloGenea tool of the National Center for Biotechnology Information] (NCBI)is a system for automated detection of [[homology (biology)|homologs] (similarity attributable to descent from a common ancestor) among the annotated genes of several completely sequenced eukaryotic genomes.
Homological conjectures in commutative algebra In mathematics, the homological conjectures have been a focus of research activity in commutative algebra since the early 1960s. They concern a number of interrelated (sometimes surprisingly so) conjectures relating various homological properties of a commutative ring to its internal ring structure, particularly its Krull dimension and depth.
Homological mirror symmetry Homological mirror symmetry is a mathematical conjecture made by Maxim Kontsevich. It seeks a systematic mathematical explanation for a phenomenon called mirror symmetry first observed by physicists studying string theory.
Homologous chromosome Homologous chromosomes are chromosomes in a biological cell that pair (synapse) during meiosis, or alternatively, non-identical chromosomes that contain information for the same biological features and contain the same genes at the same loci but possibly different genetic information, called alleles, at those genes. For example, two chromosomes may have genes encoding eye color, but one may code for brown eyes, the other for blue.
Homologous series In chemistry, a homologous series is a series of organic compounds with a similar general formula, possessing similar chemical properties due to the presence of the same functional group, and shows a gradation in physical properties as a result of increase in molecular size and mass (see relative molecular mass). For example, ethane has a higher boiling point than methane since it has more Van der Waals forces with neighbouring molecules.
Homologous temperature Homologous temperature expresses the temperature of a material as a fraction of its melting point temperature using the Kelvin scale. For example, the homologous temperature of lead at room temperature is approximately .
Homology (anthropology) In anthropology and archaeology, homology is a type of analogy whereby two human beliefs, practices or artefacts are separated by time but share similarities due to genetic or historical connections. Specifically in anthropology, a homology is a structure that is shared through descent from a common ancestor.
Homology (mathematics) In mathematics (especially algebraic topology and abstract algebra), homology (in Greek homos = identical) is a certain general procedure to associate a sequence of abelian groups or modules with a given mathematical object such as a topological space (singular homology) or a group. See homology theory for more background.
Homology modeling In protein structure prediction, homology modeling, also known as comparative modeling, is a class of methods for constructing an atomic-resolution model of a protein from its amino acid sequence (the "query sequence" or "target"). Almost all homology modeling techniques rely on the identification of one or more known protein structures (known as "templates" or "parent structures") likely to resemble the structure of the query sequence, and on the production of an alignment that maps residues in the query sequence to residues in the template sequence.
Homology theory In mathematics, homology theory is the axiomatic study of the intuitive geometric idea of homology of cycles on topological spaces. It can be broadly defined as the study of homology theories on topological spaces.
Homomasculinity Homomasculinity is a term used to describe a subculture of gay men who self-identify with the imagery, culture, and gender role of what is normally seen as "traditional, straight male masculinity". Homomasculine men may demonstrate traits that include, but are not limited to, an interest or participation in physical team sports such as American football, having a body type in contrast to the often stereotyped gay ideal of thin and boyish, pursuing a traditionally masculine career (such as soldier, police officer, firefighter, construction worker or other blue-collar employment), enjoys listening to or performing alternative rock music, heavy metal music, and/or rap music, or having masculine/non-effeminate mannerisms and preferences.
Homomorphic encryption Homomorphic Encryption is a form of encryption where one can perform a specific algebraic operation on the plaintext by performing a (possibly different) algebraic operation on the ciphertext. Depending on one's viewpoint, this can be seen as a positive or negative attribute of the cryptosystem.
Homomorphism In abstract algebra, a homomorphism is a structure-preserving map between two algebraic structures (such as groups, rings, or vector spaces). The word homomorphism comes from the Greek language: homo meaning "same" and morphos meaning "shape".
Homonoia (Greek goddess) Homonoia was the Greek goddess of concord, unanimity, and oneness of mind. She was sometimes numbered amongst the goddesses named Praxidicae (Exacters of Justice), who were said to be daughters of an early Theban king named Ogygus.
Homonym (botany) In botanical nomenclature, a homonym is a botanical name that is identical in spelling to another botanical name, when these names apply to different taxa. Only the first published of two or more homonyms is to be used: a later homonym is "illegitimate" and is not to be used unless conserved.
Homonymous hemianopsia Homonymous hemianopsia is a medical term for a type of partial blindness resulting in a loss of vision in the same visual field of both eyes. It is usually caused by injury to the brain itself such as stroke or trauma, rather than malfunctioning of the eye itself.
Homoousian Homoousian (from the Greek ομού meaning common and ουσία meaning essence or being) is a technical theological term used in discussion of the Christian understanding of God as Trinity. The Nicene Creed describe Jesus as being homoousian with the Father - that is, they are of the same substance and are equally God.
Homophone A homophone is a word which is pronounced the same as another word but differs in meaning, for example: carat, caret, and carrot. Homophones may be spelled differently, but the term also applies to different words that sound the same and are also spelled identically, such as "rose" (flower) and "rose" (past tense of "rise").
Homophony (music) In music, homophony (hōmŏf'ənē, from Greek "homófonos", where ομοιο = the same, and φωνή = a sound, tone) is a texture in which two or more parts move together in harmony, the relationship between them creating chords. This is distinct from polyphony, in which parts move with rhythmic independence, and monophony, in which all parts (if there are multiple parts) move in parallel rhythm and pitch.
Homoplasmy Homoplasmy is the presence of a mutation affecting all of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copies in a cell. Since there are hundreds or even thousands of mtDNA copies in every eukaryotic cell, mutations may either be present in all copies, homoplasmy, or affect only a fraction of them (heteroplasmy).
Homopolar generator A homopolar generator, also known as a unipolar generator, acyclic generator, or disk dynamo, is a DC electrical generator in which the magnetic field has the same polarity at every point, so that the armature passes through the magnetic field lines of force continually in the same direction. The device is electrically symmetrical, and generates continuous direct current.
Homopolar motor A homopolar motor can take many forms, but all have a magnetic field that does not change in strength or direction, hence "homo-polar", and all have their electrical circuit in two parts that are able to move relative to each other while maintaining a sliding or rotating electrical contact at two places (or an even number of places). In contrast to other electrical motors the quantity of magnetic flux passing inside the closed loop of the electrical circuit does not change.
Homoserine Homoserine is a more reactive variant of the amino acid serine. In this variant, the hydroxyl side chain contains an additional CH2 group which brings the hydroxyl group closer to its own carboxyl group, allowing it to chemically react to form a five-membered ring.
Homosexism Homosexism is the discrimination of homosexuals against heterosexuals and bisexuals, in the belief that homosexuality is superior. It is not very prominent, even below representation, as due to having felt the sting of heterosexism, homosexuals would identify this sort of prejudice.
Homosexual agenda The homosexual agenda (or the gay agenda) is a term used by social conservatives to describe the goal of increasing LGBT acceptance through public policies, media exposure, and cultural change. Most often, the term is employed by social conservatives in reference to what they see as the attempt to redefine marriage and family, and shift focus away from what they consider traditional morality.
Homosexual Agenda The Homosexual Agenda is an article authored by Michael Swift and first appearing in a February 1987 issue of GCN (Gay Community News). Originally titled Gay Revolutionary, it is also often referred to as The Homosexual Agenda.
Homosexual panic Homosexual panic1, 2 is a term, first coined by psychiatrist Edward J. Kempf in 1920, describing an acute, brief reactive psychosis involving delusions and hallucinations accusing a person of various homosexual activities.
Homosexual recruitment Homosexual recruitment is a term used for the idea that homosexuals (usually gay men) actively target impressionable individuals (usually youth) for homosexual indoctrination to persuade them towards homosexual self-identification, or alternatively, that there is a widespread conspiracy to subvert "appropriate" values by promoting homosexuality as a valid normal sexual orientation in schools and other areas of life. It is mostly used by activists in the United States who strongly disapprove of homosexuality, but has also been used in some other countries.
Homosexual transsexual Homosexual transsexual is a controversial term used by some sexologists to describe male-to-female transsexual people who are exclusively attracted to males. It is less frequently used by proponents to describe female-to-male transsexual people who are exclusively attracted to females.
Homosexuality Homosexuality refers to sexual and / or romantic attraction between individuals of the same sex. The first recorded use of the word was in 1869 by Karl-Maria Kertbeny, but the prevalence of the concept owes much to the work of the German psychiatrist Richard Freiherr von Krafft-Ebing and his 1886 work Psychopathia Sexualis.
Homosexuality and Bahá'í Faith The Bahá'í Faith teaches that the only acceptable form of sexual expression is within marriage, and Bahá'í marriage is defined in the religion's texts as exclusively between one man and one woman."Bahá'í law restricts permissible sexual intercourse to that between a man and the woman to whom he is married.
Homosexuality and Buddhism Among Buddhists there is a wide diversity of opinion about homosexuality, although on the whole Buddhism does not condemn homosexuality. Buddhist teachings are usually disdainful towards sexuality and distrustful of sensual enjoyment and desire in generalSee Religion and sexuality#Buddhist views of sex and morality.
Homosexuality and Citizenship in Florida Homosexuality and Citizenship in Florida, also known as the Purple Pamphlet, was produced in 1964 by the Florida Legislative Investigation Committee of the Florida legislature led by Senator Charley Johns. The booklet contained several pornographic images and a glossary of terminology used in the gay community.
Homosexuality and Confucianism As long as they do not impede one's fulfilling one's obligations to the family and the state, loving and sexual relations between individuals of the same sex have been traditionally accepted in confucian thought. However, relations which result in one's failure to fulfill one's filial and reproductive duties are seen as disruptive, and condemned.
Homosexuality and Hinduism Hindu views of homosexuality are diverse, as Hinduism is a heterogeneous religion with no central doctrinal authority. Same-sex relations and gender variance have been represented within Hinduism from Vedic times through to the present day, in rituals, law books, mythical narratives, commentaries, paintings and sculptures.
Homosexuality and Christianity The issue of Homosexuality within Christianity has become a matter of intense theological debate among some Christians, with ongoing argument over whether homosexuality, and specifically homosexual sex, is immoral or a sin.
Homosexuality and Judaism The subject of homosexuality in Judaism dates back to the Biblical book of Leviticus. This describes sexual intercourse between males as an "abomination" that may be subject to capital punishment, although Halakhic courts are not authorized to administer capital punishment for sexual immorality in the absence of a Temple in Jerusalem.
Homosexuality and medical science The relationship between homosexuality and medical science has a long and controversial history, covering many countries and stretching across a wide spectrum of specialities, from psychology to epistemology to genetics. This article seeks to provide a brief summary of this history and a deal with some of the issues regarding homosexuality and medical science.
Homosexuality and Shinto Homosexuality in Shinto has a varied past of periods of acceptance and rejection. Unlike other religions, Shintoism is very decentralised and non-dogmatic and thus there is no definitive religious ruling on homosexuality.
Homosexuality and transgender Homosexuality and transgender are two separate concepts. Homosexuality usually refers to romantic/sexual attraction or behaviour between people of the same gender, while transgender is a matter of gender identity, meaning that a person identifies as a different gender than the one they were assigned (usually) at birth.
Homosexuality and Taoism It is difficult to determine a single position on homosexuality in Taoism, as the term Taoism is used to describe a number of disparate religious traditions, from organised religious movements such as Quanzhen to Chinese folk religion and even a school of philosophy. The vast majority of adherents live in China and among Chinese Diaspora communities elsewhere, and so attitudes to homosexuality within Taoism often reflect the values and sexual norms of broader Chinese society (see Homosexuality in China).
Homosexuality and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Homosexuality within the context of the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is considered a negative inclination. A physical act of homosexual behaviour is considered a sin and violation of the law of chastity within the church.
Homosexuality and Voodoo Homosexuality in Voodoo is religiously acceptable and homosexuals are allowed to participate in all religious activities. However, in countries with large Voodoo populations (such as Benin or Haiti) Christian influence has given homosexuality a social stigma (see homosexuality and Christianity), at least on some levels of society.
Homosexuality and Wicca Throughout most branches of Wicca, all sexual orientations are considered healthy and positive, provided that individual sexual relationships are healthy and loving. Sexual orientation is therefore not considered an issue.
Homosexuality and Zoroastrianism Homosexuality in Zoroastrianism is, as in many other religions, a controversial topic. Orthodox Zoroastrians tend to favor the suppression of homosexuality in their community while more socially progressive Zoroastrians accept homosexuality.
Homosexuality in China The situation of homosexuality in Chinese culture is currently quite ambiguous, although many instances have been recorded in the dynastic histories. In this article, "China" includes Mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau.
Homosexuality in India Homosexuality in India, despite having an ancient history, is still considered a taboo subject, by both Indian civil society and the government of India. Homosexuality is also criminalised, due to provisions against
Homosexuality in Norse paganism The issue of homosexuality in Norse paganism has become a matter of debate in Ásatrú as practitioners try to reconcile mythology, history, historiography, and modern views regarding homosexuality. The debate centres around the issue of whether or not it is dishonourable for men to take on the submissive role during sexual intercourse or for women to take on the active role.
Homosexuality in Singapore There are no statistics on how many homosexuals there are in Singapore or what percentage of the population they constitute. The main reason for this is that section 377 of the Singapore Penal Code criminalizes "carnal intercourse against the order of nature" which includes even consensual, private, adult homosexual acts.
Homosexuality in the militaries of ancient Greece When the topic of homosexuality in the militaries of Ancient Greece is discussed, the Sacred Band of Thebes is usually considered as the prime example of how the Ancient Greeks used homoerotic or homosexual relationships between soldiers in a troop to boost the fighting spirit of their militaries. These bonds, perhaps somewhat inspired by episodes from Greek mythology, such as the heroic relationship between Achilles and Patroclus in the Iliad by Homer, were thought to boost morale as well as bravery.
Homosexuality in the Philippines In the Philippines, the term gay has been used loosely to include homosexuals, bisexuals, transsexuals, crossdressers, and effeminate men. Filipino gays are mostly stereotyped as effeminate, crossdressers, hairdressers, camp and ridiculed.
Homosexuality in the Roman Catholic priesthood Studies into the incidence of Homosexuality in the Roman Catholic priesthood are contested and controversial. Roman Catholic priests take a vow of Celibacy at their Ordination and as such are called to refrain from all sexual activity.
Homosexuality in women's sports Since women's participation has greatly increased in many sports formerly considered masculine following the Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, the stereotype of the lesbian athlete has become more prominent.
Homosexuality laws of the world The countries of the world have a wide variety of laws relating to sexual relations between people of the same sex - everything from full same-sex marriage to the death penalty as punishment for homosexual intercourse. Among the first laws on same-sex relations ca.
Homosexuality: Opposing Viewpoints (1999) Homosexuality: Opposing Viewpoints is a book, in the Opposing Viewpoints series, presenting selections of contrasting points of view on four central questions about homosexuality: what causes it; whether homosexuals face serious discrimination; whether society should encourage increased acceptance of it; and whether society should sanction Gay and Lesbian families. It was edited by Mary E.
Homosynaptic Homosynaptic interactions are events that occur at the junctions (synapses) where neurons meet. Homosynaptic events occur at a single synapse or group of synapses but do not involve interactions between synapses or groups of synapses.
Homothetic transformation In mathematics, a homothety (or homothecy) is a transformation of space which dilates distances with respect to a fixed point A called the origin. The number c by which distances are multiplied is called the dilation factor or similitude ratio.
Homotopical algebra In mathematics, homotopical algebra is a collection of concepts comprising the nonabelian aspects of homological algebra as well as possibly the abelian aspects as special cases. The homotopical nomenclature stems from the fact that a common approach to such generalizations is via abstract homotopy theory and in particular the theory of closed model categories.
Homotopy In topology, two continuous functions from one topological space to another are called homotopic (Greek homos = identical and topos = place) if one can be "continuously deformed" into the other, such a deformation being called a homotopy between the two functions. An outstanding use of homotopy is the definition of homotopy groups and cohomotopy groups, important invariants in algebraic topology.
Homotopy category In mathematics, a homotopy category is a category whose objects are topological spaces and whose morphisms are homotopy classes of continuous functions. The homotopy category of all topological spaces is often denoted hTop or Toph.
Homotopy extension property In mathematics, in the area of algebraic topology, the homotopy extension property indicates when a homotopy can be extended to another one, so that the original homotopy is simply the restriction of the extended homotopy.
Homotopy group In mathematics, homotopy groups are used in algebraic topology to classify topological spaces. The many different ways to (continuously) map an n-dimensional sphere into a given space are collected into equivalence classes, called homotopy classes.
Homotopy lifting property In mathematics, in particular in homotopy theory within algebraic topology, the homotopy lifting property (also known as the right lifting property or the covering homotopy axiom) is a technical condition on a continuous function from a topological space E to another one, B. It is designed to support the picture of E 'above' B, by allowing a homotopy taking place in B to be moved 'upstairs' to E.
Homotropic allosteric interaction In biochemistry, a homotropic allosteric interaction is one in which the activity of an allosteric protein is regulated by its substrate. Homotropic modulators tend to be allosteric activators; that is, they typically up-regulate the activity of the protein.
Homshetsi language Homshetsi or Homshetsi lizu ("the Hamshen language") is an archaic Armenian dialect spoken by the Eastern group and the Northern group of Hamshenis. It is practically a dialect and mutually intelligible with Armenian.
Homunculi of Fullmetal Alchemist In the fictional world of the Fullmetal Alchemist series, Homunculi are artificially created humans who serve as the principal villains in the series. There are seven Homunculi, each named after a cardinal sin, although their characteristics and identities vary somewhat between the anime and manga series.
Homunculi of the Fullmetal Alchemist anime In the Fullmetal Alchemist anime series, Homunculi are artificially generated beings, retaining human physical form and mental capabilities. However, they lack a soul, and their existence is replaced and replicated, to some slight degree, with the material created from an innumerable amount of souls called "Philosopher's Stones".
Homunculi of the Fullmetal Alchemist manga In the Fullmetal Alchemist manga series, Homunculi are artificially generated beings, retaining human physical form and mental capabilities. However, they lack a soul, and their existence is replaced and replicated, to some slight degree, with the material created from an innumerable amount of souls called "Philosopher's Stones.
Homunculus argument The homunculus argument arises most commonly in the theory of vision. One may explain (human) vision by arguing that the light from the outside world forms an image on the retinas in the eyes and something in the brain looks at these images as if they are images on a movie screen.
Homunculus patagonicus Homunculus patagonicus is an extinct New World monkey species that lived in Argentina during the Miocene. It is likely the ancestral species for the Callicebinae subfamily, whose living members are the titi monkeys.
