The Condon-Shortley phase is the factor of (-1)^m that occurs in some definitions of the spherical harmonics (e.g., Arfken 1985, p. 682) to compensate for the lack of ...

States that for a nondissipative Hamiltonian system, phase space density (the area between phase space contours) is constant. This requires that, given a small time increment ...

The angular velocity omega is the time derivative of the angular distance theta with direction z^^ perpendicular to the plane of angular motion, omega=(dtheta)/(dt)z^^=(v)/r.

A group that has a primitive group action.

A finite group L is quasisimple if L=[L,L] and L/Z(L) is a simple group.

X is a p^'-group if p does not divide the group order of X.

When the group order h of a finite group is a prime number, there is only one possible group of group order h. Furthermore, the group is cyclic.

The double covering group of the (linear) symplectic group.

The set of all nonsingular affine transformations of a translation in space constitutes a group known as the affine group. The affine group contains the full linear group and ...

A continuous group G which has the topology of a T2-space is a topological group. The simplest example is the group of real numbers under addition. The homeomorphism group of ...
