A set which contains a nonnegative integral number of elements is said to be finite. A set which is not finite is said to be infinite. A finite or countably infinite set is ...

An entire function f is said to be of finite order if there exist numbers a,r>0 such that |f(z)|<=exp(|z|^a) for all |z|>r. The infimum of all numbers a for which this ...

The statistical index P_B=sqrt(P_LP_P), where P_L is Laspeyres' index and P_P is Paasche's index.

The fitting subgroup is the subgroup generated by all normal nilpotent subgroups of a group H, denoted F(H). In the case of a finite group, the subgroup generated will itself ...

Define G(a,n)=1/aint_0^infty[1-e^(aEi(-t))sum_(k=0)^(n-1)((-a)^k[Ei(-t)]^k)/(k!)]. Then the Flajolet-Odlyzko constant is defined as G(1/2,1)=0.757823011268... (OEIS A143297).

Newton's term for a variable in his method of fluxions (differential calculus).

An expression occurring in existential sentences. "For some x" is the same as " exists x." Unlike in everyday language, it is does not necessarily refer to a plurality of ...

F_x[1/pi(1/2Gamma)/((x-x_0)^2+(1/2Gamma)^2)](k)=e^(-2piikx_0-Gammapi|k|). This transform arises in the computation of the characteristic function of the Cauchy distribution.

An occurrence of a variable in a logic formula which is not inside the scope of a quantifier.

A smooth curve which corresponds to the limiting case of a histogram computed for a frequency distribution of a continuous distribution as the number of data points becomes ...
