morphisms * [[Regular number]]s, numbers which evenly divide a power of 60 * [[Regular p-group]], a concept capturing some of the more important properties of abelian ''p''-groups, but general enough

cardinal number that is equal to its cofinality * [[Regular modal logic]] === Probability and statistics === * [[Regular conditional probability]], a concept that has developed to overcome certain difficulties in formally defining conditional probabilities for continuous probability distributions * Regular [[stochastic matrix]], a stochastic matrix such that all the entries of some power of the matrix are positive === Topology === * [[Free regular set]], a subset of a topological space that is acted upon disjointly under a given group action * [[Regular homotopy]] * [[Regular isotopy]] in
