In an exterior algebra ^ V, a top-dimensional form has degree n where n=dimV. Any form of higher degree must be zero. For example, if V=R^4 then alpha=e_1 ^ e_2 ^ e_3 ^ e_4 ...

A ring torus constructed out of a square of side length c can be dissected into two squares of arbitrary side lengths a and b (as long as they are consistent with the size of ...

A ring of fractions that coincides with the localization with respect to the set of all non-zero divisors.

The trimean is defined to be TM=1/4(H_1+2M+H_2), where H_i are the hinges and M is the statistical median. Press et al. (1992) call this Tukey's trimean. It is an L-estimate.

The Tristan Edwards projection is a cylindrical equal-area projection which uses a standard parallel of phi_s=37.383 degrees.

For a set of positive gamma_k, k=0, 1, 2..., Turán's inequalities are given by gamma_k^2-gamma_(k-1)gamma_(k+1)>=0 for k=1, 2, ....

An ultrametric is a metric which satisfies the following strengthened version of the triangle inequality, d(x,z)<=max(d(x,y),d(y,z)) for all x,y,z. At least two of d(x,y), ...

A transformation x^'=Ax is unimodular if the determinant of the matrix A satisfies det(A)=+/-1. A necessary and sufficient condition that a linear transformation transform a ...

A cube whose edge lengths are 1. The unit cube therefore has unit volume.

An operator U satisfying U^|U = 1 (1) UU^| = 1, (2) where U^| is the adjoint.
