A regression giving conditional expectation values of a given variable in terms of two or more other variables.

A multiple root is a root with multiplicity n>=2, also called a multiple point or repeated root. For example, in the equation (x-1)^2=0, 1 is multiple (double) root. If a ...

Multisection of a mathematical quantity or figure is division of it into a number of (usually) equal parts. Division of a quantity into two equal parts is known as bisection, ...

A set-like object in which order is ignored, but multiplicity is explicitly significant. Therefore, multisets {1,2,3} and {2,1,3} are equivalent, but {1,1,2,3} and {1,2,3} ...

Given an original knot K, the knots produced by mutations together with K itself are called mutant knots. Mutant knots are often difficult to distinguish. For instance, ...

A problem is NP-hard if an algorithm for solving it can be translated into one for solving any NP-problem (nondeterministic polynomial time) problem. NP-hard therefore means ...

A branch of mathematics which attempts to formalize the nature of the set using a minimal collection of independent axioms. Unfortunately, as discovered by its earliest ...

The integral transform defined by (Kphi)(x)=int_0^inftyG_(pq)^(mn)(xt|(a_p); (b_q))phi(t)dt, where G_(pq)^(mn) is a Meijer G-function. Note the lower limit of 0, not -infty ...

The British word for "zero." It is often used to indicate 0 subscripts, so a_0 would be spoken as "a naught."

The general equation of fluid flow (lambda+2mu)del (del ·u)-mudel x(del xu)=rho(partial^2u)/(partialt^2), where mu and lambda are coefficients of viscosity, u is the velocity ...
