Also known as the first fundamental form, ds^2=g_(ab)dx^adx^b. In the principal axis frame for three dimensions, ds^2=g_(11)(dx^1)^2+g_(22)(dx^2)^2+g_(33)(dx^3)^2. At ...

Two curves phi and psi satisfying phi+psi=0 are said to be linearly dependent. Similarly, n curves phi_i, i=1, ..., n are said to be linearly dependent if sum_(i=1)^nphi_i=0.

A curve on a surface whose tangents are always in the direction of principal curvature. The equation of the lines of curvature can be written |g_(11) g_(12) g_(22); b_(11) ...

A Liouville Space, also known as line space or "extended" Hilbert space, it is the Cartesian product of two Hilbert spaces.

In space, the only conformal mappings are inversions, similarity transformations, and congruence transformations. Or, restated, every angle-preserving transformation is a ...

A member of the smallest algebraically closed subfield L of C which is closed under the exponentiation and logarithm operations.

Loess local regression is a nonparametric technique for describing bivariate relationships where the functional form is not known in advance.

A logarithmic singularity is a singularity of an analytic function whose main z-dependent term is of order O(lnz). An example is the singularity of the Bessel function of the ...

The lower matching number of a graph is the minimum size of a maximal independent edge set. The (upper) matching number may be similarly defined as the largest size of an ...

The Lucas central circle is the circumcircle of the Lucas central triangle. The center, radius, and circle function appear to be complicated, and neither the center nor the ...
