The Mann-Whitney test statistic is equivalent to the Wilcoxon test statistic (van der Waerden 1969).

The Wilcoxon test statistic is equivalent to the T_+ statistic in the Wilcoxon signed rank test (Kanji 1999).

A nonparametric alternative to the two-sample t-test.

A quantity (such as a statistical median, quartile deviation, etc.), which is calculated from observed data.

A statistic defined to improve the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test in the tails.

Mann's theorem is a theorem widely circulated as the "alpha-beta conjecture" that was subsequently proven by Mann (1942). It states that if A and B are sets of integers each ...

A statistic defined to improve the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test in the tail of a distribution.

Mann's iteration is the dynamical system defined for a continuous function f:[0,1]->[0,1], x_n=1/nsum_(k=0)^(n-1)f(x_k) with x_0 in [0,1]. It can also be written ...

The generalized Gell-Mann matrices are the n^2-1 matrices generating the Lie algebra associated to the special unitary group SU(n), n>=2. As their name suggests, these ...

The eight Gell-Mann matrices lambda_i, i=1,...,8, are an example of the set of generators of the Lie algebra associated to the special unitary group SU(3). Explicitly, these ...
