An accumulation point is a point which is the limit of a sequence, also called a limit point. For some maps, periodic orbits give way to chaotic ones beyond a point known as ...

An addition chain for a number n is a sequence 1=a_0<a_1<...<a_r=n, such that each member after a_0 is the sum of two earlier (not necessarily distinct) ones. The number r is ...

A theory which satisfies all the Eilenberg-Steenrod axioms with the possible exception of the long exact sequence of a pair axiom, as well as a certain additional continuity ...

A module that fulfils the descending chain condition with respect to inclusion, i.e., if every decreasing sequence of submodules eventually become constant.

The Atzema spiral, also known as the Pritch-Atzema spiral, is the curve whose catacaustic for a radiant point at the origin is a circle, as illustrated above. It has ...

The two recursive sequences U_n = mU_(n-1)+U_(n-2) (1) V_n = mV_(n-1)+V_(n-2) (2) with U_0=0, U_1=1 and V_0=2, V_1=m, can be solved for the individual U_n and V_n. They are ...

Let {A_n}_(n=0)^infty be a sequence of events occurring with a certain probability distribution, and let A be the event consisting of the occurrence of a finite number of ...

The boustrophedon ("ox-plowing") transform b of a sequence a is given by b_n = sum_(k=0)^(n)(n; k)a_kE_(n-k) (1) a_n = sum_(k=0)^(n)(-1)^(n-k)(n; k)b_kE_(n-k) (2) for n>=0, ...

The central factorials x^([k]) form an associated Sheffer sequence with f(t) = e^(t/2)-e^(-t/2) (1) = 2sinh(1/2t), (2) giving the generating function ...

Suppose alpha:C_*->D_* and beta:C_*->D_* are two chain homomorphisms. Then a chain homotopy is given by a sequence of maps delta_p:C_p->D_(p-1) such that partial_D ...
