Model completion is a term employed when existential closure is successful. The formation of the complex numbers, and the move from affine to projective geometry, are ...

A lattice which satisfies the identity (x ^ y) v (x ^ z)=x ^ (y v (x ^ z)) is said to be modular.

Let M be a sigma-algebra M, and let lambda_1 and lambda_2 be measures on M. If there exists a pair of disjoint sets A and B such that lambda_1 is concentrated on A and ...

An ideal I of a partial order P is a subset of the elements of P which satisfy the property that if y in I and x<y, then x in I. For k disjoint chains in which the ith chain ...

For a partial order, the size of the longest chain is called the length.

For a partial order, the size of the longest antichain is called the width.

A topological space X is pathwise-connected iff for every two points x,y in X, there is a continuous function f from [0,1] to X such that f(0)=x and f(1)=y. Roughly speaking, ...

Let c=(c_1,...,c_n) be a point in C^n, then the open polydisk is defined by S={z:|z_j-c_j|<|z_j^0-c_j|} for j=1, ..., n.

A function f defined on a subset S subset R^n is said to be pseudoconcave if -f is pseudoconvex.

For a point y in Y, with f(y)=x, the ramification index of f at y is a positive integer e_y such that there is some open neighborhood U of y so that x has only one preimage ...
