The parameter r (sometimes also denoted mu) in the logistic equation x_(n+1)=rx_n(1-x_n).

The number of elements of a group in a given conjugacy class.

A differential k-form is a tensor of tensor rank k that is antisymmetric under exchange of any pair of indices. The number of algebraically independent components in n ...

A relation R on a set S is irreflexive provided that no element is related to itself; in other words, xRx for no x in S.

A homogeneous polynomial in two or more variables.

The conjugate of a quaternion a=a_1+a_2i+a_3j+a_4k is defined by a^_=a_1-a_2i-a_3j-a_4k.

The j-function is the modular function defined by j(tau)=1728J(tau), (1) where tau is the half-period ratio, I[tau]>0, ...

An attractor is a set of states (points in the phase space), invariant under the dynamics, towards which neighboring states in a given basin of attraction asymptotically ...

For every p, the kernel of partial_p:C_p->C_(p-1) is called the group of cycles, Z_p={c in C_p:partial(c)=0}. (1) The letter Z is short for the German word for cycle, ...

The compact-open topology is a common topology used on function spaces. Suppose X and Y are topological spaces and C(X,Y) is the set of continuous maps from f:X->Y. The ...
