The second knot polynomial discovered. Unlike the first-discovered Alexander polynomial, the Jones polynomial can sometimes distinguish handedness (as can its more powerful ...

The span of an unoriented link diagram (also called the link spread) is the difference between the highest and lowest degrees of its bracket polynomial. The span is a ...

A Lorentz tensor is any quantity which transforms like a tensor under the homogeneous Lorentz transformation.

Given a Lyapunov characteristic exponent sigma_i, the corresponding Lyapunov characteristic number lambda_i is defined as lambda_i=e^(sigma_i). (1) For an n-dimensional ...

A normal series of a group G is a finite sequence (A_0,...,A_r) of normal subgroups such that I=A_0<|A_1<|...<|A_r=G.

A metric defined by d(z,w)=sup{|ln[(u(z))/(u(w))]|:u in H^+}, where H^+ denotes the positive harmonic functions on a domain. The part metric is invariant under conformal maps ...
