Given a point set P={x_n}_(n=0)^(N-1) in the s-dimensional unit cube I=[0,1)^s, the star discrepancy is defined as D_N^*(P)=sup_(J in Upsilon^*)D(J,P), (1) where the local ...

A fractal composed of repeated copies of a pentagram or other polygon. The above figure shows a generalization to different offsets from the center.

Let A be a C^*-algebra, then a state is a positive linear functional on A of norm 1.

An expression built up from statements letters by appropriate application of connectives (Mendelson 1997, p. 13).

A symbol used to represent a Boolean statement in logic that can take the value either true or false. All statement letters are statements forms (Mendelson 1997, p. 13).

A point x_0 at which the derivative of a function f(x) vanishes, f^'(x_0)=0. A stationary point may be a minimum, maximum, or inflection point.

A quantity (such as a statistical median, quartile deviation, etc.), which is calculated from observed data.

The smallest statistical rank (either up or down) of a set of data.

The ordinal number of a value in a list arranged in a specified order (usually decreasing).

When can homology classes be realized as the image of fundamental classes of manifolds? The answer is known, and singular bordism groups provide insight into this problem.
