Let A and B be two *-algebras. An algebraic homomorphism phi:A->B is called *-homomorphism if it satisfies phi(a^*)=phi(a)^* for each a in A.

An expression built up from statements letters by appropriate application of connectives (Mendelson 1997, p. 13).

A symbol used to represent a Boolean statement in logic that can take the value either true or false. All statement letters are statements forms (Mendelson 1997, p. 13).

The exploration of three-dimensional space from two-dimensional sections of projections of solid bodies.

The integral transform (Kf)(x)=Gamma(p)int_0^infty(x+t)^(-p)f(t)dt. Note the lower limit of 0, not -infty as implied in Samko et al. (1993, p. 23, eqn. 1.101).

A theorem which specifies the structure of the generic unitary representation of the Weyl relations and thus establishes the equivalence of Heisenberg's matrix mechanics and ...

A relation < is a strict order on a set S if it is 1. Irreflexive: a<a does not hold for any a in S. 2. Asymmetric: if a<b, then b<a does not hold. 3. Transitive: a<b and b<c ...

For any ordinal number alpha, the successor of alpha is alpha union {alpha} (Ciesielski 1997, p. 46). The successor of an ordinal number alpha is therefore the next ordinal, ...

Surrogate data are artificially generated data which mimic statistical properties of real data. Isospectral surrogates have identical power spectra as real data but with ...

A syllogism, also known as a rule of inference, is a formal logical scheme used to draw a conclusion from a set of premises. An example of a syllogism is modus ponens.
