A section of a fiber bundle gives an element of the fiber over every point in B. Usually it is described as a map s:B->E such that pi degreess is the identity on B. A ...

The apodization function A(x)=cos((pix)/(2a)). Its full width at half maximum is 4a/3. Its instrument function is I(k)=(4acos(2piak))/(pi(1-16a^2k^2)), which has a maximum of ...

J_m(x)=(x^m)/(2^(m-1)sqrt(pi)Gamma(m+1/2))int_0^1cos(xt)(1-t^2)^(m-1/2)dt, where J_m(x) is a Bessel function of the first kind and Gamma(z) is the gamma function. Hankel's ...

Given a geodesic triangle (a triangle formed by the arcs of three geodesics on a smooth surface), int_(ABC)Kda=A+B+C-pi. Given the Euler characteristic chi, intintKda=2pichi, ...

The set of left cosets of a subgroup H of a topological group G forms a topological space. Its topology is defined by the quotient topology from pi:G->G/H. Namely, the open ...

For R[nu]>-1/2, J_nu(z)=(z/2)^nu2/(sqrt(pi)Gamma(nu+1/2))int_0^(pi/2)cos(zcost)sin^(2nu)tdt, where J_nu(z) is a Bessel function of the first kind, and Gamma(z) is the gamma ...

A closed geometric figure on the surface of a sphere which is formed by the arcs of great circles. The spherical polygon is a generalization of the spherical triangle. If ...

A dipyramid with a square base. The octahedron is a special case of a square dipyramid with equal edge lengths. The volume of a square dipyramid with base edge lengths a and ...

A plane curve given by the parametric equations x = cost (1) y = sintsin^m(1/2t). (2) The plots above show curves for values of m from 0 to 7. The teardrop curve has area ...

An extension field of a field F that is not algebraic over F, i.e., an extension field that has at least one element that is transcendental over F. For example, the field of ...
