An algebraic expression containing more than one term (cf., binomial). The term is also used to refer to a polynomial.

A multinomial series is generalization of the binomial series discovered by Johann Bernoulli and Leibniz. The multinomial series arises in a generalization of the binomial ...

A function for which several distinct functional values correspond (as a result of different continuations) to one and the same point (Knopp 1996, p. 94).

A multiple root is a root with multiplicity n>=2, also called a multiple point or repeated root. For example, in the equation (x-1)^2=0, 1 is multiple (double) root. If a ...

A multiple series is a series involving sums over more than one index.

The symbol × used to denote multiplication, i.e., a×b denotes a times b. The symbol × is also used to denote a group direct product, a Cartesian product, or a direct product ...

A function f(m) is called multiplicative if (m,m^')=1 (i.e., the statement that m and m^' are relatively prime) implies f(mm^')=f(m)f(m^') (Wilf 1994, p. 58). Examples of ...

A set which is connected but not simply connected is called multiply connected. A space is n-multiply connected if it is (n-1)-connected and if every map from the n-sphere ...

Multisection of a mathematical quantity or figure is division of it into a number of (usually) equal parts. Division of a quantity into two equal parts is known as bisection, ...

Multivariable calculus is the branch of calculus that studies functions of more than one variable. Partial derivatives and multiple integrals are the generalizations of ...
