Given a Hilbert space H, the sigma-strong operator topology is the topology on the algebra L(H) of bounded operators from H to itself defined as follows: A sequence S_i of ...

Sigma is the eighteenth letter of the ancient Greek alphabet. As an upper case letter (Sigma), it is used as a symbol for sums and series. As a lower case letter (sigma) it ...

A transformation that preserves angles and changes all distances in the same ratio, called the ratio of magnification. A similarity can also be defined as a transformation ...

The small dodecahemidodecahedron is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 51 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 91 (Wenninger 1989), Coxeter index 65 (Coxeter et al. 1954), ...

The small snub icosicosidodecahedron is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 32 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 110 (Wenninger 1989), Coxeter index 41 (Coxeter et al. ...

A spheric section is the curve formed by the intersection of a plane with a sphere. Excluding the degenerate cases of the plane tangent to the sphere or the plane not ...

The spherical Bessel function of the second kind, denoted y_nu(z) or n_nu(z), is defined by y_nu(z)=sqrt(pi/(2z))Y_(nu+1/2)(z), (1) where Y_nu(z) is a Bessel function of the ...

Given a set of n men and n women, marry them off in pairs after each man has ranked the women in order of preference from 1 to n, {w_1,...,w_n} and each women has done ...

The standard form of a line in the Cartesian plane is given by ax+by=c for real numbers a,b,c in R. This form can be derived from any of the other forms (point-slope form, ...

If X is any compact space, let A be a subalgebra of the algebra C(X) over the reals R with binary operations + and ×. Then, if A contains the constant functions and separates ...
