The regularized beta function is defined by I(z;a,b)=(B(z;a,b))/(B(a,b)), where B(z;a,b) is the incomplete beta function and B(a,b) is the (complete) beta function. The ...

The class of all regular sequences of particularly well-behaved functions equivalent to a given regular sequence. A distribution is sometimes also called a "generalized ...

The exponential sum function e_n(x), sometimes also denoted exp_n(x), is defined by e_n(x) = sum_(k=0)^(n)(x^k)/(k!) (1) = (e^xGamma(n+1,x))/(Gamma(n+1)), (2) where ...

A solution to the spherical Bessel differential equation. The two types of solutions are denoted j_n(x) (spherical Bessel function of the first kind) or n_n(x) (spherical ...

A cryptographic hash function is most commonly one of the following: a one-way hash function, a collision-free hash function, a trapdoor one-way hash function, or a function ...

The quantity which a function f takes upon application to a given quantity.

A synonym for analytic function, regular function, differentiable function, complex differentiable function, and holomorphic map (Krantz 1999, p. 16). The word derives from ...

The function ber_nu(z) is defined through the equation J_nu(ze^(3pii/4))=ber_nu(z)+ibei_nu(z), (1) where J_nu(z) is a Bessel function of the first kind, so ...

The most general form of "an" exponential function is a power-law function of the form f(x)=ab^(cx+d), (1) where a, c, and d are real numbers, b is a positive real number, ...

A multivalued function, also known as a multiple-valued function (Knopp 1996, part 1 p. 103), is a "function" that assumes two or more distinct values in its range for at ...
