   What does 'trivial' mean in mathematics?

   • There are two meanings of the word "trivial" in mathematics. The first, as you rightly pointed out, is strictly defined and appears in most mathematical fields. By strictly defined, I mean that if you say "the trivial solution to the ODE y′ = g(x)y y ′ = g (x) y ", I know with certainty that you mean the solution y ≡ 0 y ≡ 0.

   Is triviality a universal property?

   • So, triviality is not a universally agreed property in mathematics and logic. In mathematics, the term "trivial" is often used to refer to objects (e.g., groups, topological spaces) with a very simple structure.

   What is the second meaning of trivial?

   • The second meaning is more tricky. The second meaning of the word trivial can best be replaced with "very simple". For example, the proof that the number 7 7 is a prime number can be considered trivial. It is clear that this definition of the word is much more subjective than the first.

   Where did the term 'trivial' come from?

   • The origin of the term in mathematical language comes from the medieval trivium curriculum, which distinguishes from the more difficult quadrivium curriculum. The opposite of trivial is nontrivial, which is commonly used to indicate that an example or a solution is not simple, or that a statement or a theorem is not easy to prove.

   What is a trivial solution?

   • " Trivial " can also be used to describe solutions to an equation that have a very simple structure, but for the sake of completeness cannot be omitted. These solutions are called the trivial solutions. For example, consider the differential equation where is a function whose derivative is . The trivial solution is the zero function

   What is an example of a trivial equation?

   • Clearly, there are some solutions to the equation. For example, is a solution for any n, but such solutions are obvious and obtainable with little effort, and hence "trivial". Trivial may also refer to any easy case of a proof, which for the sake of completeness cannot be ignored.
