In 1976, Coates and Wiles showed that elliptic curves with complex multiplication having an infinite number of solutions have L-functions which are zero at the relevant fixed ...

Let mu be a positive measure on a sigma-algebra M, and let lambda be an arbitrary (real or complex) measure on M. If there is a set A in M such that lambda(E)=lambda(A ...

A continuous map is a continuous function between two topological spaces. In some fields of mathematics, the term "function" is reserved for functions which are into the real ...

A collection of faces of an n-dimensional polytope or simplicial complex, one of each dimension 0, 1, ..., n-1, which all have a common nonempty intersection. In normal three ...

Let C denote a chain complex, a portion of which is shown below: ...->C_(n+1)->C_n->C_(n-1)->.... Let H_n(C)=kerpartial_n/Impartial_(n+1) denotes the nth homology group. Then ...

An n×n complex matrix A is called indefinite if nonzero vectors x and y exist such that x^*Ax>0>y^*Ay, where x^* denotes the conjugate transpose. A matrix m may be tested to ...

Given a matrix A, a Jordan basis satisfies Ab_(i,1)=lambda_ib_(i,1) and Ab_(i,j)=lambda_ib_(i,j)+b_(i,j-1), and provides the means by which any complex matrix A can be ...

Model completion is a term employed when existential closure is successful. The formation of the complex numbers, and the move from affine to projective geometry, are ...

A reducible fraction is a fraction p/q such that GCD(p,q)>1, i.e., p/q can be written in reduced form. A fraction that is not reducible is said to be irreducible. For ...

A function possessing a single period in the complex plane is said to be singly periodic, of often simply periodic. Singly periodic functions include the trigonometric ...
