A half-plane is a planar region consisting of all points on one side of an infinite straight line, and no points on the other side. If the points on the line are included, ...

There exists a system of distinct representatives for a family of sets S_1, S_2, ..., S_m iff the union of any k of these sets contains at least k elements for all k from 1 ...

A number n for which a shortest chain exists (which is also a Hansen chain) is called a Hansen number.

Harmonic coordinates satisfy the condition Gamma^lambda=g^(munu)Gamma_(munu)^lambda=0, (1) or equivalently, partial/(partialx^kappa)(sqrt(g)g^(lambdakappa))=0. (2) It is ...

The statistical index P_H=(sumv_0)/(sum(v_0p_0)/(p_n))=(sump_0q_0)/(sum(p_0^2q_0)/(p_n)), where p_n is the price per unit in period n, q_n is the quantity produced in period ...

A hash function H projects a value from a set with many (or even an infinite number of) members to a value from a set with a fixed number of (fewer) members. Hash functions ...

A collection of equations satisfies the Hasse principle if, whenever one of the equations has solutions in R and all the Q_p, then the equations have solutions in the ...

The Jacobi symbol (a/y)=chi(y) as a number theoretic character can be extended to the Kronecker symbol (f(a)/y)=chi^*(y) so that chi^*(y)=chi(y) whenever chi(y)!=0. When y is ...

Let X be a metric space, A be a subset of X, and d a number >=0. The d-dimensional Hausdorff measure of A, H^d(A), is the infimum of positive numbers y such that for every ...

For n>=3, there exist no additive finite and invariant measures for the group of displacements in R^n.
