1. pull back

   In mathematics, a pullback is a concept that describes the inverse image or pre-image of a function. In other words, it is a way to map objects and morphisms in one category back to objects and morphisms in another category. Typically used in categories such as algebraic geometry, topology, and differential geometry, the pullback offers a way to understand the relationship between different mathematical structures by tracing their origins or transformations back to another structure or function. For example, in mathematics, a pullback might refer to the inverse of a geometric transformation. It is a fundamental concept in algebraic topology and differential geometry to describe the behaviour of functions, vector fields, or forms under pre-images. In differential geometry and differential topology, the pullback is a natural way to relate functions, differential forms, and other objects on the manifold to a smaller subspace or submanifold. The specific mathematics surrounding the pullback can be quite complex and abstract, depending on the field and the nature of the functions or structures being considered.
