A space which is isomorphic to a Borel subset B of a Polish space equipped with its sigma-algebra of Borel sets.

Defined for samples x_i, i=1, ..., N by alpha_r=1/Nsum_(i=1)^Nz_i^r=(mu_r)/(sigma^r), (1) where z_i=(x_i-x^_)/(s_x). (2) The first few are alpha_1 = 0 (3) alpha_2 = 1 (4) ...

The symbol ∼ used to denote similarity, equivalence relations, or asymptosy.

A symmetry group is a group of symmetry-preserving operations, i.e., rotations, reflections, and inversions (Arfken 1985, p. 245).

A group of three elements, also called a triad. A triple is therefore a 3-tuple.

A generalization of spun knots due to Zeeman. This method produces four-dimensional knot types that cannot be produced by ordinary spinning.

An R-module M is said to be unital if R is a commutative ring with multiplicative identity 1=1_R and if 1m=m for all elements m in M.

The limit of an upper sum, when it exists, as the mesh size approaches 0.

A triangle with side lengths a, b, and c and triangle area Delta satisfies a^2+b^2+c^2>=4sqrt(3)Delta. Equality holds iff the triangle is equilateral.

The Yff central circle, a term coined here for the first time, is the circumcircle of the Yff central triangle.
