vectorielle

Vectorielle is the feminine form of the French adjective vectoriel, meaning relating to vectors. It is used to describe items that involve vectors, such as quantities, fields, spaces or analyses. The masculine form vectoriel is used with masculine nouns (espace vectoriel, champ vectoriel), while vectorielle is used with feminine nouns (quantité vectorielle, analyse vectorielle, fonction vectorielle, image vectorielle).

In mathematics and physics, the term appears in phrases like analyse vectorielle (vector analysis), champ vectoriel (vector field), and fonction vectorielle (vector-valued function). It also occurs in more applied contexts, such as maladie vectorielle to denote vector-borne disease, and in computer science for vector graphics or vector representations, as in image vectorielle or représentation vectorielle.

The term is not a standalone concept but an agreement form used to specify that the noun it modifies is feminine. It is part of a broader vocabulary around vectors, including the masculine vectoriel and related nouns such as vecteur (vector) and espace vectoriel.
