An exponent is the power p in an expression of the form a^p. The process of performing the operation of raising a base to a given power is known as exponentiation.

A function whose value decreases more quickly than any polynomial is said to be an exponentially decreasing function. The prototypical example is the function e^(-x), plotted ...

A function whose value increases more quickly than any polynomial is said to be an exponentially increasing function. The prototypical example is the function e^x, plotted ...

The dual of the great inverted snub icosidodecahedron U_(69) and Wenninger dual W_(116).

A general term which refers to an increase (or decrease in the case of the oxymoron "negative growth") in a given quantity.

An absolutely continuous measure on partialD whose density has the form exp(x+y^_), where x and y are real-valued functions in L^infty, ||y||_infty<pi/2, exp is the ...

The Hilbert-Schmidt norm of a matrix A is a matrix norm defined by ||A||_(HS)=sqrt(sum_(i,j)a_(ij)^2).

The Hopf invariant one theorem, sometimes also called Adams' theorem, is a deep theorem in homotopy theory which states that the only n-spheres which are H-spaces are S^0, ...

A formal theory is said to be incomplete if it contains fewer theorems than would be possible while still retaining consistency.

An injective patch is a patch such that x(u_1,v_1)=x(u_2,v_2) implies that u_1=u_2 and v_1=v_2. An example of a patch which is injective but not regular is the function ...
