A symmetric matrix is a square matrix that satisfies A^(T)=A, (1) where A^(T) denotes the transpose, so a_(ij)=a_(ji). This also implies A^(-1)A^(T)=I, (2) where I is the ...

A vector space V is a set that is closed under finite vector addition and scalar multiplication. The basic example is n-dimensional Euclidean space R^n, where every element ...

The idea of a velocity vector comes from classical physics. By representing the position and motion of a single particle using vectors, the equations for motion are simpler ...

For operators A^~ and B^~, the anticommutator is defined by {A^~,B^~}=A^~B^~+B^~A^~.

The group of classes of finite dimensional central simple algebras over k with respect to a certain equivalence.

A type of maximal Abelian subgroup.

max_(a<=x<=b){|f(x)-rho(x)|w(x)}.

A metric characterizing the difference between two knots K and K^' in S^3.

A curve and its polar reciprocal with regard to the fixed conic have the same Halphen transformation.
