The function defined by [n]_q = [n; 1]_q (1) = (1-q^n)/(1-q) (2) for integer n, where [n; k]_q is a q-binomial coefficient. The q-bracket satisfies lim_(q->1^-)[n]_q=n. (3)

The q-analog of the derivative, defined by (d/(dx))_qf(x)=(f(x)-f(qx))/(x-qx). (1) For example, (d/(dx))_qsinx = (sinx-sin(qx))/(x-qx) (2) (d/(dx))_qlnx = ...

where _8phi_7 is a q-hypergeometric function.

A q-analog of the multinomial coefficient, defined as ([a_1+...+a_n]_q!)/([a_1]_q!...[a_n]_q!), where [n]_q! is a q-factorial.

_8phi_7[a,qa^(1/2),-qa^(1/2),b,c,d,e,q^(-N); a^(1/2),-a^(1/2),(aq)/b,(aq)/c,(aq)/d,(aq)/e,aq^(N+1);q,(aq^(N+2))/(bcde)] ...

If for each positive integer h, the sequence {u_(n+h)-u_n} is uniformly distributed (mod 1), then the sequence {u_n} is uniformly distributed (mod 1) (Montgomery 2001).

Bürmann's theorem deals with the expansion of functions in powers of another function. Let phi(z) be a function of z which is analytic in a closed region S, of which a is an ...

Let X be a normed space, M and N be algebraically complemented subspaces of X (i.e., M+N=X and M intersection N={0}), pi:X->X/M be the quotient map, phi:M×N->X be the natural ...

The complete elliptic integral of the second kind, illustrated above as a function of k, is defined by E(k) = E(1/2pi,k) (1) = ...

A complex number z may be represented as z=x+iy=|z|e^(itheta), (1) where |z| is a positive real number called the complex modulus of z, and theta (sometimes also denoted phi) ...
