Romanian Academy
The Romanian Academy ( ) is a cultural forum founded in Bucharest, Romania, in 1866. It covers the scientific, artistic and literary domains. The academy has 181 active members who are elected for life. According to its bylaws, the academy's main goals are the cultivation of Romanian language and Romanian literature, the study of the national history of Romania and research into major scientific domains. Some of the academy's fundamental projects are the Romanian language dictionary ('' Dicționarul explicativ al limbii române''), the dictionary of Romanian literature, and the treatise on the history of the Romanian people. History On the initiative of C. A. Rosetti, the Academy was founded on April 1, 1866, as ''Societatea Literară Română''. The founding members were illustrious members of the Romanian society of the age. The name changed to ''Societatea Academică Romînă'' in 1867, and finally to ''Academia Română'' in 1879, during the reign of Carol I. The foun ...

Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...

Hypergroup
Hyperstructures are algebraic structures equipped with at least one multi-valued operation, called a ''hyperoperation''. The largest classes of the hyperstructures are the ones called Hv – structures. A hyperoperation (\star) on a nonempty set H is a mapping from H \times H to the nonempty power set P^\!(H), meaning the set of all nonempty subsets of H, i.e. :\star: H \times H \to P^\!(H) :\quad\ (x,y) \mapsto x \star y \subseteq H. For A,B \subseteq H we define : A \star B = \bigcup_ a \star b and A \star x = A \star \,\, x \star B = \ \star B. (H, \star ) is a ''semihypergroup'' if (\star) is an associative hyperoperation, i.e. x \star (y \star z) = (x \star y)\star z for all x, y, z \in H. Furthermore, a hypergroup is a semihypergroup (H, \star ) , where the reproduction axiom Reproduction (or procreation or breeding) is the biological process by which new individual organisms – "offspring" – are produced from their "parent" or parents.
