Bracewell's term for the delta function.

One of the basic objects treated in a given formal language system. The term is sometimes also used as a synonym for urelement.

Let f(x) be a real entire function of the form f(x)=sum_(k=0)^inftygamma_k(x^k)/(k!), (1) where the gamma_ks are positive and satisfy Turán's inequalities ...

A generalization of the Wilcoxon rank sum test.

A left eigenvector is defined as a row vector X_L satisfying X_LA=lambda_LX_L. In many common applications, only right eigenvectors (and not left eigenvectors) need be ...

A function f(x) is logarithmically concave on the interval [a,b] if f>0 and lnf(x) is concave on [a,b]. The definition can also be extended to R^k->(0,infty) functions ...

A function f(x) is logarithmically convex on the interval [a,b] if f>0 and lnf(x) is convex on [a,b]. If f(x) and g(x) are logarithmically convex on the interval [a,b], then ...
