Definitions and meanings of "Invariant"

What do we mean by invariant?

Not varying; constant. adjective

Unaffected by a designated operation, as a transformation of coordinates. adjective

An invariant quantity, function, configuration, or system. noun

In mathematics, a function of the coefficients of a quantic such that, if the quantic is linearly transformed, the same function of the new coefficients is equal to the first function multiplied by some power of the modulus of transformation. noun

See the adjectives. noun

In physical chemistry, having a variance equal to zero.

An entity compounded of constituents, some of them subject to change or variation, which, despite this change, remains itself unchanged. noun

An invariable quantity; specifically, a function of the coefficients of one or more forms, which remains unaltered, when these undergo suitable linear transformations. noun

Not varying; constant adjective

Unaffected by a specified operation (especially by a transformation) adjective

Neither covariant nor contravariant. adjective

An invariant quantity, function etc. noun

A feature (quantity or property or function) that remains unchanged when a particular transformation is applied to it noun

Unvarying in nature adjective

Unaffected by a designated operation or transformation adjective

An invariant quantity, function etc.

Invariably is an adverb which means each time or upon every occasion. If you see a particular person that you loathe and despise coming towards you and you always get that sinking feeling in your stomach, then that is invariably what happens. You know that every time you see them they’ll have that shit-eating grin on their face that each time you see it makes you feel sick, then that is invariably what happens as well. You know too, because it happens every time that, without even saying “Hello”, they’ll start dishing the dirt on somebody because that is what invariably happens. I thought a few examples might help to clarify things, but I’m not invariably right. Urban Dictionary

The line element, we know, is incredibly useful, as it provides us with an invariant quantity and also imparts information about causal structure. ❋ Unknown (2009)
