1. ''Human rights - sustainability - United Nations (UN) - Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) - equality.''
1.
The mathematical function which is the inverse of "raising to the power of".
Usually abbreviated to "log".


The condition of being unequal in opportunities, rights or status.
For example working with logarithms to the base 10:


For example, the UK's Equality and Human Rights Commission protects equality and freedom from discrimination on grounds of age, disability, gender, race, religion and belief, pregnancy and maternity, marriage and civil partnership, sexual orientation and gender reassignment.
log<sub>10</sub>(100) = 2


And 10<sup>2</sup> = 100


2.  ''International law - international relations - income - economic status - other contexts.''
More generally with logarithms to the base n:


The condition of being equal in economic status, income, other measures of wellbeing, or any other measure.
log<sub>n</sub>(x) = the power which, when 'n' is raised to it = x


Reducing inequality within and among countries is the UN's SDG 10.
For example 10<sup>(log<sub>10</sub>(x))</sup> = x


And generally n<sup>(log<sub>n</sub>(x))</sup> = x

1. The mathematical function which is the inverse of "raising to the power of". Usually abbreviated to "log".

For example working with logarithms to the base 10:

log10(100) = 2

And 102 = 100

More generally with logarithms to the base n:

logn(x) = the power which, when 'n' is raised to it = x

For example 10(log10(x)) = x

And generally n(logn(x)) = x


2. The logarithm to the base 10.
