A Lie groupoid over B is a groupoid G for which G and B are differentiable manifolds and alpha,beta and multiplication are differentiable maps. Furthermore, the derivatives ...

Let suma_k and sumb_k be two series with positive terms and suppose lim_(k->infty)(a_k)/(b_k)=rho. If rho is finite and rho>0, then the two series both converge or diverge.

A subset M of a Hilbert space H is a linear manifold if it is closed under addition of vectors and scalar multiplication.

Two curves phi and psi satisfying phi+psi=0 are said to be linearly dependent. Similarly, n curves phi_i, i=1, ..., n are said to be linearly dependent if sum_(i=1)^nphi_i=0.

A link invariant is a function from the set of all links to any other set such that the function does not change as the link is changed (up to isotopy). In other words, a ...

The ordinary differential equation y^'=-y(1+kappa(x)y)/(1-kappa(x)y).

For a two-dimensional map with sigma_2>sigma_1, d_(Lya)=1-(sigma_1)/(sigma_2), where sigma_n are the Lyapunov characteristic exponents.

Let K be a field of field characteristic 0 (e.g., the rationals Q) and let {u_n} be a sequence of elements of K which satisfies a difference equation of the form ...

Polynomials s_n(x) which form the Sheffer sequence for f^(-1)(t)=1+t-e^t, (1) where f^(-1)(t) is the inverse function of f(t), and have generating function ...

An n-cycle is a finite sequence of points Y_0, ..., Y_(n-1) such that, under a map G, Y_1 = G(Y_0) (1) Y_2 = G(Y_1) (2) Y_(n-1) = G(Y_(n-2)) (3) Y_0 = G(Y_(n-1)). (4) In ...
