Conditional logit regression assumes a model of the form p_j=(e^(beta^'x_j))/(sum_(j)e^(beta^'x_j)) for j=1, ..., k+1. In this model, a subject is presented with choice ...

A curve whose name means skull-like. It is given by the polar equation r=asint+bsqrt(1-pcos^2t)+csqrt(1-qcos^2t), where a,b,c>0, a<b+c, 0<p<1, 0<q<1, and p!=q. The top of 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 ...

Ellipsoidal harmonics of the second kind, also known as Lamé functions of the second kind, are variously defined as F_m^p(x)=(2m+1)E_m^p(x) ...

In general, a frieze consists of repeated copies of a single motif. b ; a d; c Conway and Guy (1996) define a frieze pattern as an arrangement of numbers at the intersection ...

A method of determining coefficients alpha_k in a power series solution y(x)=y_0(x)+sum_(k=1)^nalpha_ky_k(x) of the ordinary differential equation L^~[y(x)]=0 so that ...

f(x) approx t_n(x)=sum_(k=0)^(2n)f_kzeta_k(x), where t_n(x) is a trigonometric polynomial of degree n such that t_n(x_k)=f_k for k=0, ..., 2n, and ...

An element a of a ring which is nonzero, not a unit, and whose only divisors are the trivial ones (i.e., the units and the products ua, where u is a unit). Equivalently, an ...

The partial differential equation (1+f_y^2)f_(xx)-2f_xf_yf_(xy)+(1+f_x^2)f_(yy)=0 (Gray 1997, p. 399), whose solutions are called minimal surfaces. This corresponds to the ...

A Laurent polynomial with coefficients in the field F is an algebraic object that is typically expressed in the form ...+a_(-n)t^(-n)+a_(-(n-1))t^(-(n-1))+... ...
