A tangent vector v_(p)=v_1x_u+v_2x_v is a principal vector iff det[v_2^2 -v_1v_2 v_1^2; E F G; e f g]=0, where e, f, and g are coefficients of the first fundamental form and ...

A polygon vertex x_i of a simple polygon P is a principal polygon vertex if the diagonal [x_(i-1),x_(i+1)] intersects the boundary of P only at x_(i-1) and x_(i+1).

A loose term for a true statement which may be a postulate, theorem, etc.

Let D be a subset of the nonnegative integers Z^* with the properties that (1) the integer 0 is in D and (2) any time that the interval [0,n] is contained in D, one can show ...

Let D be a subset of the nonnegative integers Z^* with the properties that (1) the integer 0 is in D and (2) any time that n is in D, one can show that n+1 is also in D. ...

A Möbius strip with finite thickness.

The volume of a prismatoid is equal to the sum of the volumes of a pyramid, a wedge, and a parallelepiped.

A prismatoid having planar sides and the same number of vertices in both of its parallel planes. The faces of a prismoid are therefore either trapezoids or parallelograms. ...

A probabilistic experiment is an occurrence such as the tossing of a coin, rolling of a die, etc. in which the complexity of the underlying system leads to an outcome that ...

Evans et al. (2000, p. 6) use the unfortunate term "probability domain" to refer to the range of the distribution function of a probability density function. For a continuous ...
