Convergence

What do we mean by convergence?

The act, condition, quality, or fact of converging. noun

The property or manner of approaching a limit, such as a point, line, function, or value. noun

The point of converging; a meeting place. noun

The coordinated turning of the eyes inward to focus on an object at close range. noun

The adaptive evolution of superficially similar structures, such as the wings of birds and insects, in unrelated species subjected to similar environments. noun

The character or fact of converging; tendency to one point; the fact of meeting in a point. noun

In mathematics: The gradual and indefinite approximation of the sum of an infinite series toward a finite value. The scalar part of the result of performing upon any vector function the operation noun

It is so called because, if the vector function be considered as representing the velocity and direction of a flowing fluid, the surface integral of this function over a closed surface, or the flow inward through that surface, is equal to the volume integral of the convergence within the surface. See curl. noun

In biology, the manifestation of a tendency, among allied or diverse groups of organisms, to assume series of modifications by the same methods or along parallel lines, and with somewhat similar results. noun

The condition or quality of converging; tendency to one point; the occurrence of two or more things coming together. noun

The approach of an infinite series to a finite limit. noun

A representation of common ground between theories or phenomena. noun

The act of converging (coming closer). noun

A similarity of form or function in two or more organisms caused by evolutionary adaptations to a similarity in the environment, rather than to a common heredity. noun

The act of moving toward union or uniformity. noun

A meeting place. noun

The intersection of three electron beams for red, green and blue onto a single pixel in a CRT. noun

The process of approaching some limiting value. noun

The coordinated focusing of the eyes, especially at short range. noun

The evolution of similar structures or traits in unrelated species in similar environments; convergent evolution. noun

The act of moving toward union or uniformity.

A meeting place.

The intersection of three electron beams for red, green and blue onto a single pixel in a CRT.

The process of approaching some limiting value.

The coordinated focusing of the eyes, especially at short range.

The evolution of similar structures or traits in unrelated species in similar environments; convergent evolution.

The hypothesis that poorer economies' per capita incomes tend to grow faster than richer economies.

The merging of distinct technologies, industries, or devices into a unified whole.
