A Bäcklund transformation allows additional solutions to a nonlinear partial differential equations to be found if one particular solution is already known.

(Bailey 1935, p. 25), where _7F_6(a_1,...,a_7;b_1,...,b_6) and _4F_3(a_1,...,a_4;b_1,b_2,b_3) are generalized hypergeometric functions with argument z=1 and Gamma(z) is the ...

A method of matrix diagonalization using Jacobi rotation matrices P_(pq). It consists of a sequence of orthogonal similarity transformations of the form ...

The function z=f(x)=ln(x/(1-x)). (1) This function has an inflection point at x=1/2, where f^('')(x)=(2x-1)/(x^2(x-1)^2)=0. (2) Applying the logit transformation to values ...

Let F,G:C->D be functors between categories C and D. A natural transformation Phi from F to G consists of a family Phi_C:F(C)->G(C) of morphisms in D which are indexed by the ...

A topological transformation in which a surface is made out of an infinitely elastic material which, however, may not be torn or cut. Using this simple prescription gives the ...

Let r be the correlation coefficient. Then defining z^'=tanh^(-1)r (1) zeta=tanh^(-1)rho, (2) gives sigma_(z^') = (N-3)^(-1/2) (3) var(z^') = 1/n+(4-rho^2)/(2n^2)+... (4) ...

A transformation of the form w=f(z)=(az+b)/(cz+d), (1) where a, b, c, d in C and ad-bc!=0, (2) is a conformal mapping called a linear fractional transformation. The ...

Deck transformations, also called covering transformations, are defined for any cover p:A->X. They act on A by homeomorphisms which preserve the projection p. Deck ...

The kernel of a linear transformation T:V-->W between vector spaces is its null space.
