To understand mathematical language we have to understand the words of mathematics. In particular, for machine-supported knowledge management and digital libraries, we need machine-actionable terminology databases (termbases). However, terminologies for Mathematics and related subjects differ from vocabularies for general natural languages in many ways. In this paper we analyze these and develop a data model for
SMGloM
the Semantic, Multilingual Glossary of Mathematics and show how it can be encoded in the
OMDoc
/
MMT
theory graph model. This structured representation naturally accounts for many of the terminological and ontological relations of a semantic terminology (aka. glossary). We also demonstrate how we can account for multilinguality in this setting.
