A geometry in which Archimedes' axiom does not hold.

A null function delta^0(x) satisfies int_a^bdelta^0(x)dx=0 (1) for all a,b, so int_(-infty)^infty|delta^0(x)|dx=0. (2) Like a delta function, they satisfy delta^0(x)={0 x!=0; ...

A number theoretic function is a function whose domain is the set of positive integers.

A linear real-valued function omega^1 of vectors v such that omega^1(v)|->R. Vectors (i.e., contravariant vectors or "kets" |psi>) and one-forms (i.e., covariant vectors or ...

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

"God is or He is not...Let us weigh the gain and the loss in choosing...'God is.' If you gain, you gain all, if you lose, you lose nothing. Wager, then, unhesitatingly, that ...

The "perp dot product" a^_|_·b for a and b vectors in the plane is a modification of the two-dimensional dot product in which a is replaced by the perpendicular vector ...

A 1-form omega=sum_(i=1)^na_i(x)dx_i such that omega=0.

An algebra in which the associator (x,x,x)=0. The subalgebra generated by one element is associative.

A point where a curve intersects itself along four arcs. The above plot shows the quadruple point at the origin of the quadrifolium (x^2+y^2)^3-4x^2y^2=0.
