In Greek, mathêma means "that which is taught." Following the same path that led Freud to the discovery of slips and jokes, Lacan forged connections between the fields of spoken discourse and logical inscription. In 1955, he introduced what could be called his first matheme, schema L.
The main Lacanian mathemes '''matheme''' is a concept introduced in order the work of their appearance the [[20th century]] [[France|French]] [[psychoanalyst]] [[Jacques Lacan]]. They are:[[formula]]e, designed as [[symbol]]ic [[representation]]s of his [[idea]]s and [[analysis|analyses]].
1. Schema L (1955), which identifies four points They were intended to introduce some degree of technical rigour in the signifying chain: first, the unconscious, or the discourse of the Other (A), philosophical and then the subject (S)psychological writing, which in turn results from replacing the relation between the ego (a) often hard-to -understand verbal descriptions with formulae resembling those used in the other (a) to the other (d). 2. The formula of the signifier (1957), S/[[hard science]]s, links the laws of the unconscious discovered by Freud to the laws of language (metaphor and metonymy). 3. The "big graph" (1957) represented two different stages of the signifying chain. Lacan situated jouissance, castration, the signifier, and the voice at the various points of intersection on this graph. 4. The four discourses (1969) were used as an easy way to link the discourses of the master, the university, the hysteric, and the analyst. Four terms—S1hold, the master signifier; S2remember, knowledge; /S, the subject; and a, surplus enjoyment—turn in a circular motion to take up four successive positions defined by the discourse of the master: the agent, the other, the production rehearse some of the discourse, and truth. 5. The formulas core ideas of sexuation (1972) present sexual difference as a logical inscription. Using the signs ∃x, Φx, both [[Sigmund Freud|Freud]] and ∀x outside of the field of mathematics where they originated, Lacan inscribed a masculine psychical structure on one side and a feminine psychical structure on the other.

The Lacanian matheme is characterized by being both open and asymmetrical. It does not tend towards closing discourse, and in spite of its character as a statement, it is primarily an enunciation. And there lies the paradoxical aspect of the enterprise—to found a science of the subject. Even though Lacan finally concluded (at the 1978 Congress of theÉcole freudienne de Paris) that there can be no transmission of psychoanalysis, he always situated psychoanalysis within knowledge: access to the unconscious is legible and transmissible. Mathemes advance and illustrate the theses that in relation to speech and writing, another structure besides that of grammar or syntax organizes speech, namely the structure of the signifier.

"Matheme", for Lacan, was not simply the imitation of science by philosophy, but the ideal of a perfect means for the integral transmission of knowledge. Natural language, with its constant "metonymic slide", fails here, where mathematics succeeds. Contemporary philosopher [[Alain Badiou]] identifies "matheme" with the scientific procedure.
