A series involving three sums. Examples of convergent triple series include sum_(i=1)^(infty)sum_(j=1)^(infty)sum_(k=1)^(infty)1/((ijk)^2) = 1/(216)pi^6 (1) ...

A bundle or fiber bundle is trivial if it is isomorphic to the cross product of the base space and a fiber.

The trivial loop is the loop that takes every point to its basepoint. Formally, if X is a topological space and x in X, the trivial loop based at x is the map L:[0,1]->X ...

Also called indiscrete topology, the trivial topology is the smallest topology on a set X, namely the one in which the only open sets are the empty set and the entire set X. ...

A word derived from the Latin roots tri- (three) and via (ways, roads), therefore a crossing of three roads. In medieval universities, the trivium consisted of the three ...

A statement which is rigorously known to be correct. A statement which is not true is called false, although certain statements can be proved to be rigorously undecidable ...

The function defined by y_+^alpha={y^alpha for y>0; 0 for y<=0. (1)

A tubular neighborhood of a submanifold N in M is an embedding of the normal bundle (nu_N) of N into M, i.e., f:nu_N->M, where the image of the zero section of the normal ...

The function psi(x)={x(1-(x^2)/(c^2))^2 for |x|<c; 0 for |x|>c (1) sometimes used in robust estimation. It has a minimum at x=-c/sqrt(5) and a maximum at x=c/sqrt(5), where ...

Let a knot K be n-embeddable. Then its tunnel number is a knot invariant which is related to n.
