Generally speaking, in mathematics, a projection is a mapping of a set (or of a mathematical structure) which is idempotent, which means that a projection is equal to its composition with itself. A projection may also refer to a mapping which has a left inverse.

Is projection volume?

Projection can refer to different concepts depending on the context, such as in mathematics, psychology, or cinema. In a mathematical sense, projection often involves projecting a point or object onto a subspace, which can relate to volume in specific applications like geometry. In psychology, projection refers to attributing one’s own thoughts or feelings to others, which does not involve volume. Therefore, the answer depends on the context in which "projection" is being discussed.
