The probability law on the space of continuous functions g with g(0)=0, induced by the Wiener process.

Cohomology is an invariant of a topological space, formally "dual" to homology, and so it detects "holes" in a space. Cohomology has more algebraic structure than homology, ...

A compactum (plural: compacta) is a compact metric space. An example of a compactum is any finite discrete metric space. Also, the space [0,1] union [2,3] is a compactum, ...

A special case of a flag manifold. A Grassmann manifold is a certain collection of vector subspaces of a vector space. In particular, g_(n,k) is the Grassmann manifold of ...

A basis for the real numbers R, considered as a vector space over the rationals Q, i.e., a set of real numbers {U_alpha} such that every real number beta has a unique ...

A fiber bundle (also called simply a bundle) with fiber F is a map f:E->B where E is called the total space of the fiber bundle and B the base space of the fiber bundle. The ...

The gabled rhombohedra are a family of elongated gyrobifastigium that are space-filling. The equilateral elongated gyrobifastigium, illustrated above, is one such example.

The Schmitt-Conway biprism is a convex polyhedron found to be only aperiodically space-filling by Conway in 1993.

A set of vectors is maximally linearly independent if including any other vector in the vector space would make it linearly dependent (i.e., if any other vector in the space ...

A set which is connected but not simply connected is called multiply connected. A space is n-multiply connected if it is (n-1)-connected and if every map from the n-sphere ...
