Leonard Adleman has demonstrated finding the solution to a graph-theory problem by putting DNA fragments in solution and letting them combine. Even within one field of study, terms can conflict; there are two mathematical meanings of "graph", for instance. I propose sujgirzu for group and piljygirzu for ring. I was going to say fedgirzu for division ring, but lenu fendi does not appear to be a mathematical operation. phma ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Life's too short to send boring email.
