A lens space L(p,q) is the 3-manifold obtained by gluing the boundaries of two solid tori together such that the meridian of the first goes to a (p,q)-curve on the second, ...

A one-person game played on a rectangular lattice of lamps which can be turned on and off. A move consists of flipping a "switch" inside one of the squares, thereby toggling ...

Two or more functions, equations, or vectors f_1, f_2, ..., which are not linearly dependent, i.e., cannot be expressed in the form a_1f_1+a_2f_2+...+a_nf_n=0 with a_1, a_2, ...

A Liouville Space, also known as line space or "extended" Hilbert space, it is the Cartesian product of two Hilbert spaces.

A statement letter or a negation of a statement letter (Mendelson 1997, p. 30).

Little-omega notation is the inverse of the Landau symbol o, i.e., f(n) in o(phi(n)) <==> phi(n) in omega(f(n)).

Given a point P and a line AB, draw the perpendicular through P and call it PC. Let PD be any other line from P which meets CB in D. In a hyperbolic geometry, as D moves off ...

The conjecture that the maximum local density is given by rho_(dodecahedron).

A local minimum, also called a relative minimum, is a minimum within some neighborhood that need not be (but may be) a global minimum.

A topological space is locally connected at the point x if every neighborhood of x contains a connected open neighborhood. It is called locally connected if it is locally ...
