"Up to a factor" (traduction) "à un facteur

What could be so hard. It's a multiple-choice test for Pete's sake.

"Up to a factor" (traduction) "à un facteur

Postby Th.V » Thu Mar 15, 2007 4:16 am

Hello,

I am looking for the translation of the french expression (usual in Mathematics):

"à un facteur près"

or for a similar type of sentence:

"à un isomorphism près"

Maybe translation is:

"apart from a factor" or "except for a factor" or "up to a factor"

"apart from an isomorphism" or "except for an isomorphism" or "up to an isomorphism".

I am looking for the most pertinent translation and a native english person knowing also mathematics could help me.
Thank you so much for your help.
Kind regards. Th.
