Oxidation reaction
* To be an oxidation reaction electrons have to be lost. * Any reaction that results in electrons being lost can be described as an oxidation reaction.
An oxidation half-reaction
Technically it can be described as oxidation. Technically it is an oxidation reaction, although I've never heard it described as "the oxidation of an alkane". Strange, since when an alkene is converted to an alkane by hydrogenation, we do hear it called "reduction of an alkene". Perhaps this is because the term "alkane oxidation" has been appropriated for the promising research into efficiently capturing energy by combining alkanes with oxygen at low temperatures.
An oxidation-reaction involve a transfer of electrons.

No
These are not mutually exclusive. A reaction can be oxidation and exothermic. Oxidation reactions involve a change in oxidation state (charge) which is interpreted as a loss of electrons. Exothermic reactions release heat energy.
An oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two species. An oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion changes by gaining or losing an electron
A reaction witrh oxygen is called oxidation. Generally oxidation involve lose of electrons.
