In Vector Analysis
Nexus Set: The set to which all others are related
Imbrication: Subsegments
Normal Order: Ascending pitches are as close together as possible
Inverted Order
Normal Inverted Order

In Dodecaphonic Music
Semi-combinatoriality
1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th all-combinatoriality: Capable of forming an aggregate with any of
its basic transformations transposed
Derived Rows: Transformational processes. Trichord can be transformed
-Combinatoriality is side-effect of derived rows
Retrograde Inversion
Aggregate- Complete set of 12 chromatic pitches
Tetradic derivation- 4 note set to make aggregate
Hexachordal derivation
Trichordal derivation
Non Retrogradable rhythms: Rhythmic palindrome
Neotonality: Establish a tonal center by tonal assertion. Functional harmony and
tonic/dominant relationships are gone. (Messiaen)
