==Neologism==
The term "[[matheme]]" is a neologism coined by [[Jacques Lacan]] in the early 1970s.
Formed by derivation from "[[mathematics]]" and by analogy with [[phoneme]] and [[Lévi-Strauss]]'s [[mytheme]], the term is an equivalent to "[[algebra|mathematical sign]]". It is not used in conventional [[mathematics]].
