character

Mathematics
  • Character theory is an important tool in the study of finite groups. The character χ‎φ‎:G → F of a representation φ‎:G → GL(V) is the map χ‎φ‎(g) = traceφ‎(g). Here G is a group and V is a finite-dimensional vector space over a field F. The degree of the character is the dimension of V. A character is called irreducible if the representation is *irreducible. See character table.


Computer
  • 1. An element of a given character set.

    2. A subdivision of a word in a machine, usually comprising 8 bits. This is also called a byte.

    3. The smallest unit of information in a record.


Biology
  • A distinctive inherited feature of an organism. Organisms in a population may display different aspects of a particular character; for example, the A, B, and O human blood groups (see abo system) are different aspects of the blood group character. See also phenotype.


Geology and Earth Sciences
  • Any detectable attribute or property of the phenotype of an organism. Defined heritable differences in the character may exist between individuals within a species.


Philosophy
  • A person’s character is the sum total of dispositions to action (including thinking and saying). An action is (apparently) out of character if it does not conform to the pattern the person has so far exhibited, although it may then be an indication of a more complex character than hitherto appeared. In virtue ethics, character is the prime object of appraisal, and actions are derivatively good or bad, right or wrong, in so far as they would have been the actions of a virtuous person.
